What happens

Regal Academy is an Italian animated series co-created by Iginio Straffi and Joanne Lee. The series was produced by the Rainbow studio, which at the time was co-owned by Straffi and Viacom. It premiered on Rai YoYo in Italy on May 22, 2016, and on Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. internationally on August 13, 2016. The series is a comedic reimagining of a few fairy tale characters. It originated as a dark comedy concept called Twisted Fairy Tales that the Rainbow team designed in 2009. After several years of changes, the show was previewed in 2013, under the working title Royal Academy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
