Broadcasters in Canada, the UK and US have committed to a second season of Hit Entertainment/Nelvana preschool series Mike the Knight.
Treehouse in Canada, CBeebies in the UK and Nick Jr in the US have all ordered more episodes of Mike, which Hit and Corus Entertainment’s Nelvana are already producing.
Delivery of the second 52×12’ season is set to begin towards the end of this spring. Treehouse will show it first, from May, with CBeebies following in the summer and Nick Jr in the fall.
The first season of Mike was been sold to 27 broadcasters in 112 territories around the world.
Set in the medieval land of Glendragon, Mike the Knight takes viewers into a CGI animated world of wizards, castles, missions, dragons and trolls. It was created by Alexander Bar (Lunar Jim) and is written by Marc Seal (Bob the Builder).
Nelvana Enterprises reps the series in Latin America, France and the US, while Mattel-owned Hit handles the property elsewhere.
