UYoung and Little Airplane Productions’ new pre-school comedy series P. King Duckling, which premiered on Disney Junior US on 7th November 2016, has gotten off to a flying start. According to Eurodata TV research figures from November 2016 to January 2017, P. King Duckling is the second highest Disney Junior series with the all-important 2-5 year-old audience and the fourth highest ranking animated series across all US preschooler children’s channels, among children 2-5.
Bringing families together, P. King Duckling has reached over 18 million Total Viewers across the U.S. including nearly over 6 million Kids 2-8 and more than 7 million Adults 18-49, for its telecasts to date.
King Duckling is due to air on SVT Sweden, YLE Finland and in a number of other territories on Disney Junior, including Latin America, India, Korea, and South East Asia. Targeted for children aged 2-7, P. King Duckling follows the feathery adventures of an extremely intrepid, but slightly hapless, young duck and his two best friends, Chumpkins and Wombat. The series is set in the rural and rather wonky community of Hilly Hole, from where P. King and his friends embark on adventures all over the world, from the Left Bank of Paris, where they redecorate the Eiffel Tower, to the Great Wall of China, which they manage to turn into the Great Waterslide of China. King Duckling was created by Emmy Award-winning preschool TV producer Josh Selig of Little Airplane Productions in collaboration with James Chen Gu, General Manager of UYoung Animation. The series is directed by UYoung’s Creative Director, Eddy Bo Fan, and is Executive Produced by James Chen Gu and Josh Selig. UYoung owns the global TV and licensing rights for the show.
