Paramount Italy Acquires 'Monster Loving Maniacs' Rights For Nickelodeon, Super!

Paramount Global Italia has acquired the Italian pay-TV rights to their 2D-animated adventure series Monster Loving Maniacs from Mondo TV Group and Toon2Tango, with the series set to premiere on Nickelodeon Italy (Italia) on Monday 21st October 2024, airing weekdays at 16:00. Under the deal, Paramount also has the option to air it on its free-to-air Super! channel.

Monster Loving Maniacs

Commissioned by Super RTL (Germany) and DR TV (Denmark), Monster Loving Maniacs is a 2D-animated series (52 x 11 minutes) about three siblings training to become monster hunters who decide to save the creatures in their crosshairs instead of capturing them.

Join Edith, Ernest and Bo, three siblings, who are being trained as monster hunters by their tough old grandfather. These kids are massive horror fans who love dangerous paranormal creatures, which doesn’t quite match their grandfather’s old-school ideas. So, as soon as grandpa takes one of his many naps, they look for a way to save the monsters rather than hunt them.

Monster Loving Maniacs is an animated comedy for 6-10 year-olds. It is exciting and funny, has lots of monsters and it looks amazing. It also touches on bigger themes, like families, relationships and coping with our fears.
