Dreamworks Originals for Hulu & Peacock.

They announced that three Dreamworks shows would be made exclusive to Hulu & Peacock; The Mighty Ones, TrollsTopia & Madagascar: A Little Wild. Allegedly they were meant for a release on April 15, but they've somehow been delayed due to the pandemic.

Speaking of which, last year the Universal Kids channel said they will no longer produce original series.

That's why Where's Waldo? is moving to Peacock first-run.

Here's the Peacock trailer for Where's Waldo.

Also, this isn't Dreamworks, but it is Universal, but here's a trailer for the PBS Kids Curious George series, which is now airing the episodes that aired years ago in other countries.

We're getting another Curious George movie. This time, it's coming to Peacock tomorrow. It's called Curious George: Go West, Go Wild.

x2 First they 'Babify' Dragons, now they're doing it with Madagascar. And just like the former, I'm not really a fan of this either.

Technically speaking, the new Madagascar series stars younger versions of the main characters, while the new Dragons series stats original characters.

There's a Halloween special for Madagascar: A Little Wild coming October 21.

Here's the trailer for the Hulu cartoon The Mighty Ones.

Season 2 of Trolls Trolls Topia comes out March 18.

Here's the trailer for season 2 of Trolls Trolls Topia .

Not sure if this is the best place for it, but Variety has reported that Peacock lost a whopping $914 million in 2020.

Comcast is expecting Peacock to achieve the break-even point by 2025, but the $914 million loss doesn't fill me with confidence...

Them acquiring the WWE Network makes a lot more sense now.

This is more about Peacock as a whole rather than specifically Dream Works, but this is worth talking about. When it comes to kids viewership, Peacock isn't doing so well.

"The NBC Universal streamer captured just 1.2% of overall viewership demand for kids content, compared to Netflix (22.3%), Amazon Prime Video (16.9%), Paramount+ (16.4%), Disney+ (15.3%), Hulu (15.2%) and HBO Max (12.7%)".

Most of what they're advertising heavily are sitcoms and a few original dramas. The kids programming they do have is not heavily and is not a core part of their pitch to subscribers.

This also probably explains why they bought the WWE Network rights (and proceeded to decimate the archive people liked about it).
