Cartoon Network launches original production series ‘Clarence’ in India
Strap: The original animated comedy series from Cartoon Network Studios will premiere on 1 June, 2015 at 5 pm.
MUMBAI: Cartoon Network has launched its original production series Clarence in India. The original animated comedy series from Cartoon Network Studios will premiere on 1 June, 2015 and will air on weekdays at 5 pm on Cartoon Network.
Comprising of 24 episodes of 15 minutes each, Clarence was conceived as a part of the shorts development program at Cartoon Network Studios, which has resulted in six original series for the network, including Regular Show, Uncle Grandpa and Steven Universe.
Clarence follows a spirited, quirky boy who always sees the best in all things. When everyone else turns right, Clarence turns left… into a wall – but he keeps on going. Daily life is a fun and thrilling adventure for Clarence and his friends. There’s streetwise Sumo, slightly neurotic Jeff and his sassy mum Mary.
Set in small-town Aberdale, the stories are inspired by and celebrate real life triumphs and tragedies from childhood: epic dirt fights, sleepover pranks, secret tree forts and many more. Through the eyes of Clarence, and in his chubby little hands, these tales always veer off the main road, if not off the map entirely.
