HARI Greenlights New CG Preschool Series ‘Baby Lemmings’

Today, Paris-based global IP company HARI, announces it has greenlit a brand new series starring baby lemmings from its global hit series Grizzy & The Lemmings. Described as a “genlte-slapstick” CG-animated show aimed at preschoolers and families, the 78 x 7′ series will deliver throughout 2025/26.

For the Baby Lemmings, the whole world is a playground, and there’s nothing better than sharing this life philosophy with their little animal neighbors in the Canadian forest. When you see life from the Baby Lemmings’ side, you can overcome any difficulty and have a whole lot of fun while doing so!

“At first glance, blending the craziness of slapstick with the gentle nature of preschool content seemed an impossible task,” said Josselin Charier, Executive Producer, HARI. “However, it’s in the core DNA of the lemmings to be playful. And it’s through this boundless playfulness that we discovered the perfect formula for a preschool audience: stories where any challenge can be overcome through games.”

France Televisions commissioned the series for Okoo and France 4, while Warner Bros. Discovery secured the rights for Cartoonito and Max in EMEA, Cartoonito in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan, as well as Cartoon Network in South Asia. Super RTL licensed the rights in Germany for Toggo.

“We’re very excited to continue our partnership with Hari for this brand-new animated series, Baby Lemmings,” said Aurélie Wack, Warner Bros. Discovery, Kids EMEA, Acquisitions & Co-Productions Sr. Manager. “It is perfect for our Cartoonito and Max upper-preschool audiences who can count on the playful baby lemmings to bring endless fun and heart-warming moments!”

Baby Lemmings follows the global success of Grizzy & The Lemmings, now broadcast in 200 territories globally. It is the number one most watched animated kids show (for six plus) on Netflix worldwide, and is consistently in the top three animated series on France TV’s Okoo, the U.K.’s CBBC and Toggo in Germany (Super RTL). The show delivers outstanding ratings on TV channels around the world and generates 1.3 billion views per year on YouTube (with 9 million subscribers).
