MUMBAI: Breakthrough Animation's comedy adventure animated series Captain Flamingo has come on board the Jetix programming block, which airs on Toon Disney in the US.

Jetix has licensed all 52 half-hours of the animated series aimed at kids 6-12 and 44 minutes of separate Captain Flamingo content produced especially for the Internet (webisodes) and the mobile platform (mobisodes), including story vignettes, original songs and more.

The Jetix licensing agreement follows on the heels of Breakthrough Animation's renewal of animated series with Jetix Europe. In addition, Captain Flamingo has also been licensed to YTV Canada, Nickelodeon Australia, ABC Australia, Nickelodeon Latin America and VRAK TV, states an official release.

Said Breakthrough Animation Inc. managing partner and Captain Flamingo executive producer Kevin Gillis, "We are delighted with the significant two full-season commitment that Jetix has made to Captain Flamingo. We are honoured to be a part of the Jetix family.

"Their support of the series is a tribute to the extraordinary creative team of co-production partners Breakthrough Animation, Heroic Film Company, Atomic Cartoons and PASI Animation. As he's succeeded in accomplishing throughout Canada, Europe and Australia, the "Captain" is now poised and ready to capture the attention of kids across the US!"

Captain Flamingo features Milo Powell who armed with his backpack of powerful joke store novelty items, saves the day every time with a little help from his best pal, anonymous sidekick and not-so-secret admirer, Lizbeth. In a world where grown-ups rule and kids don't get much respect, who is there to watch out for them? Only Captain Flamingo can navigate the tricky ins-and-outs of grown-up rules, like minding impossible-to-remember manners.
