YouTube announced the greenlight of four new projects: “Mindful Adventures of Unicorn Island,” an animated series from Lilly Singh set to premiere in 2023; “The Big Tiny Food Face-Off” from B17 Entertainment; “Buster’s Big Halloween” from Moonbug Entertainment; and music series “Jam Van.”
YouTube also announced the Season 2 renewal of popular preschool series “Tab Time,” starring Tabitha Brown, an actress, vegan foodie and mother — aka “America’s mom.” Tabitha (or “Ms. Tab” as the kids call her) taps into her skills as a cook, storyteller, mom and motivational leader, to teach children how to live their best life. Season 2 will comprise 10 episodes of 22 minutes each that will begin to roll out this fall.
In addition, YouTube Kids & Family has 18 projects in development, including kids’ cooking show “The Magic Cookbook” from executive producer Whoopi Goldberg. The announcements come ahead of YouTube’s May 17 upfront presentation in New York City for marketers and ad buyers.
