Spain's BRB has sold its children's series Angus & Cheryl to Nickelodeon, says . The show is dialogue-free"comedy filler" with 104 90-second episodes. "Series is designed to adapt to newer platforms such as videogames, mobile phones, blogs and podcasts."

 

Sounds kind of interesting mixing the old style silent comedy with new media. However, it's not to be broadcast in the United States, or at least the Variety article makes no mention of it. "Nickelodeon has acquired cable and satellite TV rights to the series for Latin America, Belgium, France, Holland (also in an open-to-air broadcast format), Italy, Luxembourg, Portugal, Scandinavia, Spain and Switzerland." But I'm sure some of it will end up on Youtube, if it isn't there already.

 

Okay, I just checked, it is. It's weird. Not necessarily good or bad, just kind of .
