Cynopsis: Kids! 12/06/10 Good morning. It’s Monday, December 6, 2010, and this is your first early morning Kids briefing. CBBC (UK) launches Championsheeps, a new group of online games based on Aardman Animation’s series Shaun the Sheep, at www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/shaunthesheep . Developed by Aardman Digital, Championsheeps is comprised of five games are all set around the farm and allow players to challenge each other and compare scores. Championsheeps and its five new games are designed to support the new episodes of Shaun the Sheep, which start airing on BBC One and CBBC beginning today. The five games that make up Championsheeps are: Flock Together; Alien Athletics; Sheep Stack; Baahmy Golf; and Chic n’ Spoon. NEW PRODUCTION & DEVELOPMENT Actor/author David Walliams‘, creator/star of BBC’s Little Britain, first kid’s book, The Boy In The Dress, is set to be made into a TV movie by Sky, per The Sun. The program will be produced by Hat Trick (Father Ted, Have I Got News For You), which has begun casting for Dennis, the 12-year-old boy star of the story. Walliams has two other kid’s books, Mr. Stink and Billionaire Boy. More Kung-Fu Panda, Penguins of Madagascar and How To Train Your Dragon movies. DreamWorks Animation‘s Jeffrey Katzenberg lays out plans for several movie sequels in a interview with Empire Online. In total Katzenberg says that there will be four Penguins of Madagascar movies, six Kung-Fu Panda pictures, and at least three How To Train Your Dragon movies (there are eight Dragon books). As for if Shrek Forever After, which releases this week on DVD and Blu-ray, is really the last Shrek movie Katzenberg said, “What our movies and our franchises also share in common with Shrek is that they have a beginning, a middle and an end; they’re not open-ended. Each of the films is a chapter of a story and in every instance we knew what that journey was or could be before we even started.” ABC will air the 2010 Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade special on Christmas Day, December 25, 11a-1p. Hosted by Ryan Seacrest at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, and Nick Cannon from Disneyland resort in California, with co-host Maria Menounos from Florida, as well as correspondent Samantha Brown, the parade special features performances by Mariah Carey, Darius Rucker, amber Riley, Selena Gomez, Debby Ryan, Jackie Evancho (10-year-old soprano), Lee DeWyze (American Idol), and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, among others.
