Netflixilla menee lujaa – Tiedossa taas viisi uutta alkuperäissarjaa

Striimauspalvelu tarjoaa uutuuksia kaikenikäisille.

Tuttujen ja suosittujen House of Cardsin, Orange Is the New Blackin ja Daredevilin lisäksi Netflix on jatkanut alun perin jollain muulla kanavalla näytettyjä sarjoja, esimerkkinä vaikkapa Arrested Development.

Nyt vuorossa on kanadalainen teinidraama Degrassi, joka jatkuu striimauspalvelussa nimellä Degrasi: Next Class.

Ensimmäisten jaksojen on tarkoitus tulla palveluun ensi vuonna.

Myös lapsille ja nuorille on tiedossa uutuuksia. Heille tarjotaan animaatiot Tarzan and Jane, An Army of Frogs, Puffin Rock ja Cirque du Soleil Luna Petunia.

Tarzan and Jane ja An Army of Frogs ovat vähän vanhemmille lapsille tarkoitettuja seikkailuja ja kaksi muuta on suunnattu alle kouluikäisille.

Kaikkien uutuuksien esittelytekstit löytyvät alkuperäismuodossaan Tazan ja Jane -kuvan alapuolelta.

“Cirque du Soleil Luna Petunia” (to debut fall 2016): Preschool series from Saban Brands and Cirque du Soleil Média chronicles the adventures of Luna Petunia, a girl who lives in our world but plays in a dreamland where she learns how to make the impossible possible. The first season of 11 episodes will premiere worldwide exclusively on Netflix, kicking off a franchise rollout that will include a consumer products line, interactive digital content and a potential live tour.

“Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Tarzan and Jane” (second half of 2016): In modern-day remake of the classic characters, 16-year-old Tarzan returns from the African jungle to a London boarding school where he meets Jane, who helps him solve environmental injustice, crimes and mysteries. The eight-episode season comes from 41 Entertainment and executive producer Avi Arad (which are also developing “Kong – King of the Apes” original series and feature-length film for Netflix) with animation from ARC Prods.

“Kulipari: An Army of Frogs” (2016): Based on the trilogy of books by NFL star Trevor Pryce that were inspired by his childhood fear of frogs. The series targets grade-school boys and follows poisonous frogs, scorpions and spiders who must go to war to ensure their power and the survival of their entire world. The 13-episode season, produced by Splash Entertainment and Outlook Company, will premiere worldwide exclusively on Netflix in 2016.

“Puffin Rock” (Sept. 1, 2015, in major markets): Set on an island off the coast of Ireland, series revolves around charismatic and plucky young puffling Oona, who with her curious little brother Baba explores a diverse array of sea, sky, land and underground creatures. Actor Chris O’Dowd narrates the English-language version of the series, from Penguin Random House Children’s, Dog Ears and animation studio Cartoon Saloon. The 13-episode season premieres exclusively on Netflix in the U.S., Canada, Latin America, Benelux, France and Germany in September, and with other Netflix territories to follow at a later date.
