A total of 730 brand new episodes are set to feature this year on Cartoon Network and Boomerang, Pierre Branco, the vice president Southern Europe and Africa for Turner Broadcasting System said.
Announcing the new programmes at the recently held MultiChoice content extravaganza in Mauritius, Branco said the two channels will offer fresh and entertainment content as part of the biggest programming line-up ever.

“The two channels are all about imagination and fun and this was experienced first-hand as superhero Sportacus from Boomerang’s ‘LazyTown’ got everybody moving, encouraging children to eat healthy and exercise, while Cartoon Network’s Animation Generation inspired creativity, challenging the children to tap into their creativity by drawing exciting characters.

“With a jam packed total of 405 brand new episodes for their African audience still to come between June and December, and a total of over 730 new episodes this year, Cartoon Network and Boomerang are truly offering fresh and entertaining content as part of their biggest programming line-up ever.

On Cartoon Network, DStv channel 301, viewers can look forward to warming up this winter with brand new Original Productions “Uncle Grandpa”, “Steven Universe” and “Clarence”; Warner Brothers’ “Teen Titans Go!”; “DreamWorks: Dragons Defenders of Berk” and the brand new live action series “Incredible Crew”.

Beginning in September onwards, children can expect new episodes of hit shows such as the ever impressing “Ben 10”, the global hit “Adventure Time” and the award winning “The Amazing World of Gumball”. There will also be the “Powerpuff Girls” mini-movie in August for viewers to look forward to.

Included in this winter’s line-up on Boomerang, DStv channel 302, will be Steven Spielberg’s “Tiny Toons”, “Road Runner” as part of the Looney Tunes All Stars stunt, and the show that gets kids moving all over the world: “LazyTown” launches its fourth season this November.

Among some of the brand new shows are “The Tom & Jerry Show” and “CGI Inspector Gadget” and new episodes of popular classics are set to continue entertaining new generations such as “Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated” and “The Garfield Show”.

“It is another extraordinary year for Turner’s kids channels in 2014 and viewers can expect it to continue in 2015. With a mixture of new original productions and old favourites, our offer has never been stronger. Our shows are truly talent driven and thus made with passion.

“We look for unique and surprising stories that have great characters which feel authentic to kids and this is more apparent than ever with our upcoming slate,” Branco said.
