Good morning. It’s Thursday, December 2, 2010, and this is your first early morning Kids briefing. Walden Media is looking to breathe new life into the Benji, the dog, movies, by teaming up with Brandon Camp, son of Benji’s creator Joe Camp Jr., who will write, direct and produce a new family-targeted Benji movie, per Variety. The younger Camp will be on the prowl for a new dog to play Benji, which he would like to be a stray dog not unlike the original dog that played Benji on the big screen. Brandon Camp hopes to partner with a rescue dog group to find the new star. In 2009 Walden Media signed Brandon Camp to direct its upcoming family-targeted movie Relativity. The younger Camp holds and manages the rights to Benji for his family. MORE KIDS STUFF Nickelodeon will take a look at kids living with service dogs in the new Nick News with Linda Ellerbee special, Good Dog, premiering Sunday, December 5 at 9p. The program will introduce kids and meet their service dogs and all explore the things these dogs are capable of providing to those they work with and what it takes to train them. Service dogs often act as the eyes, hands, legs of people who need their help, turning on lights, opening doors and signaling a food that could cause an allergic reaction, as well as helping calm them down. The new wild animal and science mixed live-action/2D animated series Wild Kratts, (40×30) featuring zoologist brothers Chris and Martin Kratt, will launch in the US on PBS Kids Go! on Monday, January 3, 2011 (check local listings) and in Ontario on TVO‘s TVOKids on Tuesday, January 11, where the series will air Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 6:30p and Saturdays at 3p.
