- Synopsis
- 4 Seasons. Pocoyo (Pocoyó in Spanish) is a Spanish pre-school animated cartoon series about a young boy who dresses in blue and who is full of curiosity. Viewers are encouraged to recognise situations that Pocoyo is in, and things that are going on with or around him. Pocoyo's world is set in a 3D space, with a plain white background and has no backdrops.
Two series have been produced, each consisting of 52 seven-minute episodes. A future third series is on hold as the makers wish to embark upon other projects, one of which may be a Pocoyo movie.
In June 2006, Pocoyo was awarded, at the 30th International Festival of Annecy, the Cristal Award for the "Best TV Production".
The show is created with Softimage XSI software.
The British actor and comedian Stephen Fry narrates the English language version, which is broadcast within the United Kingdom on CITV, and within Canada on Treehouse TV. José María del Río narrates the Spanish version.
Five has acquired terrestrial rights in the United Kingdom to the first and second series, making it part of the Milkshake! strand. The show, which is a co-production between Spanish producer Zinkia Entertainment and Granada International, will continue to air on the CITV Channel. TVE2 broadcast the second series in Spain starting in April 2008.
