Streaming Renewal

Animation, she does well in a variety of formats.

Hulu‘s animated superhero comedy The Awesomes has been renewed for a 10-epiosode second season. The series co-created by Seth Meyers and Mike Shoemaker launched in August and is one of the top 10 most-watched shows on the streaming service, Hulu says. ...

It's dawned on producers that animation plays well, travels well and has a long shelf life. Added to which, the merchandise that gets generated from cartoons is often substantial.
