Hoppy News: "Max & Ruby" Season 6 Features Max And Ruby's Parents
There are many unanswered questions in the cartoon world. What the secret ingredient in a Krabby Patty is? How does CatDog go to the bathroom? What are the first names of Timmy Turner's parents? Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego, anyway? And where are Max & Ruby's parents?
That last question was answered on Sunday, when Nick Jr. USA aired the first two brand-new episodes of the sixth season of popular animated preschool series Max & Ruby that finally, after five full seasons and 14 years, actually showed the two bunnies' parents!
Max & Ruby is a half-hour long Canadian-American animated preschool series that follows two funny bunny siblings, Max and Ruby, who never, ever, want quite the same thing and their plans always collide - with hilarious results. The series, children's book author/illustrator Rosemary Wells and based on the world of her Max and Ruby books, debuted in 2002, and airs regularly on Nick Jr. in the U.S., and Nick Jr. and Nick Jr. Too in the UK.
Until now, the only adult relative seen on the show was Grandma, who they don't live with them, which people have noticed over the years.
Creator Rosemary Wells told Nick Jr. in a interview her reasoning. "We don't see Max and Ruby's parents because I believe that kids resolve their issues and conflicts differently when they're on their own." The parents were seen in a family picture hanging on the wall, and for five seasons, that was it.
But on Sunday, Max & Ruby returned with new episodes for the first time since 2013, and who should finally show up in the season six premiere episode, "Max's Preschool", but Mr. and Mrs. Bunny? Social media immediately hopped to it to discuss the matter.
It was a big weekend for Max, who, previously could only speak one or two words at a time, is suddenly speaking full sentences and attending preschool!

Xilam Eyes Asian Expansion Of "Oggy And The Cockroaches" With Licensing Agent For India
French animation studio Xilam has appointed Dream Theatre to represent its flagship global children's brand Oggy and the Cockroaches in India.
Under a two-year agreement, the agency will represent Oggy across all consumer products categories and brand promotion.
The non-dialog series is currently one of India's leading children's TV performs, airing on both Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, and the show's fifth season is expected to premiere on Cartoon Network Asia in Fall 2017. The property's first consumer products are also slated to hit shelves in Autumn next year.
New episodes will see Oggy and the roaches travelling back in time and to the future as they continue their seasons-long battle. Seasons six and seven will premiere in 2018.
Oggy and the Cockroaches targets kids aged six to 11 years old, and since the series features slapstick comedy with no dialog, it has seen success in a number of territories, including France, Italy and South Asia.
The Oggy brand is now distributed in more than 160 countries world wide and is watched in 600 million homes and boasts an internet audience of three billion total videos viewed on YouTube, as well as three million fans on Facebook.
Dream Theatre's appointment was made as Xilam expands its consumer products program for the brand, following Marie-Laure Marchand's appointment as Senior Vice President (SVP) of Global Consumer Products for the company earlier this year.
In a statement about the partnership, Marchand said: "We are delighted to have secured this partnership agreement with Dream Theatre; we know its experienced licensing team will capture the essence of Oggy and the key characters in a range of products that will engage the fans of today as well as tomorrow.
"Asia is a key growth market for our business and it was important we appointed who shared our vision and passion for the brand."

Regal Academy is a brand-new funny and exciting animated series (26 episodes X 26') from Winx Club creator Rainbow that brings classic fairy tale characters into the modern world. Using a a mixture of comedy, music and innovative animation techniques, the new show takes the familiar world of fairy tales and turns it upside down by adding a delicious and charming twist.

More Nick North: Nickelodeon Germany, Nick Austria And Nickelodeon Switzerland To Premiere "The Other Kingdom" On Monday 7th November 2016!
When Rose tumbles into Fairy Tale Land, she discovers something even greater--her own magical family legacy! Her grandmother Cinderella is headmistress of Regal Academy, where five famous fairy tale families come together to teach the next generation of princes and princesses how to become heroes... with a lot of help from their legendary grandparents.
Now Rose and her new best friends – Astoria Rapunzel, Joy Le Frog, Travis Beast, LingLing Iron Fan and Hawk Snowwhite, all of whom belong to the school's founding families – figure out how to fly dragons and outsmart witches, all while learning to use their magic and live up to their famous family names. Can they make the grade?
In the series premiere of Regal Academy, "A School for Fairy Tales" (#101), Rose falls into Fairy Tale Land and begins her adventure at her new school, Regal Academy!
Created and produced by Rainbow in collaboration with Rai Fiction, Regal Academy premiered in Italy last May on Rai YoYo and has been sold in more than 120 countries. Nickelodeon acquired the global broadcast rights To Regal Academy in October 2015, and is currently rolling the all-new series on Nickelodeon channels globally, including on Nick USA, where the show debuted on Saturday 13th August 2016.
Rainbow's new IP also has more than 80 licensing agreements to its name.
Giochi Preziosi, is the pan-European master toy licensee for the brand; while Guangdong Alpha Animation & Culture Co., which specialises in both toys and animation, will cover the U.S., Canada and Asia; and Witty Toys, which has a strong reputation in toy production and distribution across more than 20 countries, will manage the rest of the world.
Giochi Preziosi is already developing a range that includes fashion dolls and accessories, play sets and role play toys. A range of dolls will be the first toy line on the market and will launch in Europe in the run-up to Christmas 2016, building on the strong expected response to the show's first series (season).
Other licensees already signed on include Justbridge Entertainment (DVD distribution) and Italian publisher Fabbri Editori (storybooks and activity and novelty formats). Procos has also signed a multi-territory agreement to cover the party-ware category.
Regal Academy is the latest property created and developed by Rainbow, the force behind Winx Club, whose consumer products sales generated more than US$2 billion at global retail last year.
Although unconfirmed, it is expected that Nickelodeon Germany (Deutschland), Nickelodeon Netherlands (Nederland), Nickelodeon Belgium (België; Flanders), Nickelodeon Denmark (Danmark), Nickelodeon Sweden (Sverige) and Nickelodeon Norway will also debut Regal Academy around the same time.

Both of the Miffy shows are based on the award-winning book series by Dutch author-illustrator Dick Bruna.
Miffy’s Adventures Big and Small offers a new take on the classic series and follows Miffy as she goes out with her friends to discover the exciting world around her. Through a simple narrative, the CG-animated show features active stories and dialogue, along with emotional experiences relatable to preschoolers.
