Nickelodeon's hit animated comedy series It's Pony has been nominated in the "Best Digital Children’s Content" category of the Broadcast Digital Awards 2021 in the U.K.!
The annual Broadcast Digital Awards recognises digital innovation and content creativity in broadcasting, celebrating outstanding content from channels that achieve scale, volume and noise, no matter what their budget or position on the EPG. The winners will be unveiled at a live event on 6 October in The Brewery in London, after the awards were streamed online last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The series follows the comedic adventures of Annie and her best friend, who just so happens to be an enthusiastic, unpredictable, and carefree pony. It’s Pony is locally titled Este es Pony in Spain and É o Pónei in Portugal.

Throughout the season, the series will explore the everyday life and hijinks of two best friends whose optimism and enthusiasm turn any situation from ordinary to extraordinary. Whether making an epic quest down the street to mail a letter, heroically saving the local playground with a bake sale, or simply getting a haircut, Pony and Annie always stick together because life is better as a pair.
Created by Ant Blades, It’s Pony is inspired by a short from Nickelodeon’s 2015 International Animated Shorts Program.
