The award-winning global franchise, Talking Tom & Friends, will release 13 special episodes of Talking Tom Shorts, with a featured launch on the YouTube Kids app on March 19th. Produced by Outfit7 and animated by Hype, the specials are part of the franchise’s rebrand, unveiled last year, and introduce Talking Tom and the rest of the friends in their updated look. While the brand resonates with fans of all ages, Talking Tom Shorts: Specials brings its core spirit of self-expression, creativity, and friendship to life through short-form adventures created especially for kids.
Talking Tom Shorts: Specials centers on Talking Tom, whose defining trait is his instinct to support and motivate his friends. Each episode begins with an everyday situation that develops into a collaborative effort to find a solution. Talking Tom works alongside one or two friends, with each character contributing their perspective and strengths to move the story forward. The characters also appear with new, fully voiced performances, bringing greater personality and depth to stories designed for kids.
Talking Tom & Friends has always been centered on self-expression and creativity, a purpose that has resonated with millions of fans worldwide. With more than 26 billion mobile game downloads and over 122 billion video views globally, the franchise continues to expand across a wide range of digital platforms. While the brand engages audiences of all ages, Talking Tom Shorts: Specials brings the brand values into a format designed especially for kids, translating the spirit of the franchise into playful short-form stories.
In total, the specials will include 13 episodes, each approximately three minutes long, with episodes rolling out regularly on the official Talking Tom YouTube channel. The launch will also be supported by a featured placement within the YouTube Kids app on Thursday, March 19th, helping parents and kids easily discover the series.
