Overview

"THE MIDNIGHT TROLLEY When a magical trolley appears in a child's closet and whisks her away from her turbulent home to find the Last Poppy Flower, her moody and disengaged older sister must embark on a perilous journey across fantastical/educational, art-history-inspired worlds to get them both back before the Bog Man destroys the trolley, and the childrens' parents return for the night. THE MIDNIGHT TROLLEY is an animated childrens limited series featuring stylistic world-building, creative art worlds based off different historical eras, and high stakes adventuring. It also tackles themes of family, sisterhood, and the difficulties of childhood divorce through the transformative power of art, love, and a bit of magic." -- Abstract

THE ARLINGTONS When their mother and father are kidnapped by a mysterious organization, the four gifted and brilliant Arlington children must embark on a globe-trotting journey to rescue their parents and locate their sacred Dissertations, before the hitmen sent after them, the equally as cunning Poinsett children, steal the Dissertations first. THE ARLINGTONS is a Wes Anderson style heist limited series for children tackling themes of found family, fitting in, and the bonds of siblinghood, all wrapped up in the glamorous world of high stakes action, sleek heists, and brilliant scheming but featuring young children as the protagonists. As SPY KIDS once said, "Never send a grown up to do a kids job." -- Abstract
