What happens

Babar and the Adventures of Badou is an animated children's television series based on Babar the Elephant, a character created by Jean and Laurent de Brunhoff. Produced by Nelvana, TeamTO, Guru Studio, Pipeline Studios and LuxAnimation, in co-production with TF1 and with the participation of Playhouse Disney France/The Walt Disney Company France, the series takes place several years after the original series and has created new characters to the Babar universe, including Badou, who is Babar's 8-year-old grandson and the protagonist of the series. This series first premiered on September 6, 2010, in Australia on ABC2, in France on TF1's TFOU strand on November 8, and in Canada on YTV on November 22. Vice President and managing director of Jumbo Pictures, and Nelvana Enterprises, Colin Bohm explained that Nelvana was excited to bring Babar into the 21st century with a new 3D TV series as well as a comprehensive licensing program from TF1. The series also premiered in the U.S. on Playhouse Disney. Babar and the Adventures of Badou was renewed for a second season, which began airing on Disney Junior on March 25, 2013. The third and final season aired from 2014 to 2015. 65 episodes were produced over three seasons. It was the last role for Chris Wiggins before his death in 2017 and was the last time Gordon Pinsent voiced Babar before his death in 2023. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
