What would you do if an over-the-top giant rabbit burst into your life? Jay Shmufton was a typical 12 year-old until he met Rekkit, a 10-foot tall eccentric rabbit. Rekkit Rabbit ran away from his job as a magician’s assistant in Chakabrak, and crashed into our world... and Jays life! Now the boy has to cope with his new super-enthusiastic, supernatural, super-clingy friend, whose unreliable magic is going to get this odd couple into the craziest situations. Rekkit Rabbit is a mass appeal cartoon comedy with a very wacky edge. There's no knowing what's going to happen when you've got a rabbit that sleepeats his friends, sneezes Scottish hamsters and can’t seem to get a spell right – but it’s going to be fun finding out!
A pure cartoon comedy from the people that brought you the smash hit Totally Spies!
Helmed by head writers Reid Harrisson (The Simpsons, George Of The Jungle) and Mitch Watson (Scooby Doo)
The launch of Rekkit Rabbit on TF1 France returned excellent ratings of 23%, 4-10 share and 700 000 viewers. No.1 youth program of Wednesday mornings
