Waiting is frustrating, especially when you're one and a half but to pass the time Cuquin, Clementina, and Cyan use their imaginations and move from the classroom into an exciting adventure where the pursuit of their desire continues. Their favourite toys Robi the robot, Trex the dinosaur, and Ghost the cheeky class rabbit join in the fun! Packed with slapstick action and comedy, the children's adventures pass the time until they return to the classroom and it's finally time to do what they want!
About Cuquin
Cuquin is a curious and happy-go-lucky toddler who attends a nursery full of fun and games. His endless curiosity and need to explore often lead him and his friends into trouble, but he is resourceful and always finds a way out. Cuquin is spontaneous and reacts instantly to whatever he wants, but he is also caring and considerate when it comes to his friends. He is determined and tenacious, always willing to help his friends achieve their goals. Nothing is impossible when Cuquin is around!
Based on the 1960’s highly successful Spanish children’s brand ‘The Telerin Family’, Cleo & Cuquin was born in 2018 as a series, with a 78 x 7-minute season, which, at its premiere on TV channels, enjoyed being the #1 series in the preschool category in Mexico, Spain, and several Latin American countries. Simultaneously, children's songs and episodes starring Cuquin were produced and published on YouTube with great success. With content produced for digital platforms and VOD services, a new Cuquin adventure comedy spin-off was produced. Featuring the new adorable characters Clementina, Cyan, Robi the robot, Trex the dinosaur, and Ghost the rabbit who accompanied Cuquin in his many adventures, the new series premiered on HBO Max and Cartoonito in April 2023.
In this new season, experienced preschool comedy writers Lisa Akhurst (PJ Masks, Pip and Posy, Bob the Builder, Postman Pat) and Marc Seal (PJ Masks, Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy, Mike the Knight) continue as the successful head writing team.
Cuquin season two is produced by Ánima Kitchent for Warner Bros. Discovery.
