Baby Shark launched on YouTube in November 2015 and took the world by storm, amassing 5.7 billion views and becoming the second most-watched video in the platform’s history. With music, characters, story and dance all combined together, the song recorded a 20-week-streak on the Billboard Hot 100 and spawned a viral phenomenon #BabySharkChallenge, generating over one million cover videos around the globe.
Nickelodeon, a division of ViacomCBS Networks, and SmartStudy, the global entertainment company behind the beloved children’s brand, Pinkfong, announced in June 2019 that they are partnering to develop a new original animated series based on Baby Shark for global distribution, while ViacomCBS Consumer Products (VCP) will be managing consumer products licensing worldwide, excluding Asia, for the property. Titled Baby Shark’s Big Show!, Nickelodeon's Baby Shark animated series is currently in production, and set to debut on Nickelodeon in the U.S. with an all-new original holiday special this December, with premieres rolling out across its preschool platforms in spring 2021.
