Kids’ AVOD network Kabillion announces another classic character joining the network on Wednesday, March 22. Woody Woodpecker, a series of animated shorts produced by Splash Entertainment, commissioned by Universal 1440 Entertainment (a production arm of Universal Filmed Entertainment Group) will be broadcast on both Kabillion’s cable and OTT services.
“Woody Woodpecker is now 83 years old, but in these new episodes he has not aged a single day! We are proud to feature this classic character on our free ad-supported network,” said Steve Levy, President of Kabillion.
The shorts, directed by Emmy winner Mike Milo (Pinky and the Brain, Chowder, Wolfboy and the Everything Factory) feature an array of the top animation voice artists, including Eric Bauza as Woody Woodpecker, Tara Strong as Winnie Woodpecker, Tom Kenny as Wally Walrus, Nika Futterman as Knothead, Kevin Michael Richardson as Buzz and Dee Bradley Baker as Chilly Willy.
Splash Entertainment produced three seasons of these new shorts, which will be featured on their Kabillion network appearing on cable outlets, including Comcast, Spectrum and Cox, as well as Roku, Amazon Fire and Apple TV.
Kabillion is a top-five network containing safe, age-appropriate, and free on-demand programming featuring branded channels “pre-school,” “Girls Rule” (6–11) and “Action” (6–11). The Emmy Award-winning network runs on-demand on all major U.S. cable networks as well as digitally.
