NEW YORK—4Kids Entertainment announced today that Jetix, a television programming brand aimed at ages 7 to 13, has licensed U.S. cable television broadcast rights for the Chaotic animated series. It will launch October 2007.
"We are extremely delighted to forge this important relationship with Jetix that will ensure significant added broadcast coverage in the U.S. for the Chaotic animated series," says Brian Lacey, executive vice president, international, for 4Kids Entertainment. "We are confident that the series will develop a strong and loyal kid audience with Jetix in the states, as well as Latin America."
The series will continue to air on weekends in the U.S. on 4Kids TV—4Kids’ four-hour Saturday morning programming block on Fox Network—and is available for viewing on the Comcast VOD Channel. It is also broadcast in English on Teletoon in Canada, with a French language broadcast scheduled to begin this month. In addition, 4Kids has licensed Chaotic to Jetix Latin America for pay satellite TV rights in that region.
Chaotic follows the adventures of two teenage boys who discover that the Chaotic Trading Card Game they’ve been playing is more than a game when a secret portal transports them to Chaotic, a parallel universe. In this world, the unique codes on the game's trading cards are actually scans of living creatures with unique powers, which the boys use to further their skills.
