TORONTO – CBC Kids has greenlit a new 10 episode, three minute series from marblemedia that will keep children and their parents guessing.
Each episode of Holy Baloney features three kids who take time out of their lunch hour to answer a poignant question about everyday things, with each giving a different, often hilarious, response. The questions, and sometimes the answers, will be tricky for both kids and parents, but it’s up to the viewers to watch the convincing answers of all three schoolyard experts and decide which answer is right, and which two are complete baloney.
The kid friendly series is a mix of live action and mixed media, as the imaginative answers are visually played out throughout each episode. Holy Baloney is set to launch this spring at CBC Kids and on the CBC TV app.
“In Holy Baloney, we ask the big everyday questions – Why is the sky blue? Why do we shake hands? The type of questions we all asked as kids and sometimes don’t remember as adults, or would be surprised by the real answer”, said marblemedia co-CEO Matt Hornburg, in the news release. “The series offers a fun way for inquisitive people of all ages to learn the answers to life’s toughest questions together.”
International rights for the series are held by marblemedia’s Distribution 360.
