'Dr. Dimensionpants’ joins TELETOON's Can't Miss Thursdays block starting November 6.
Toronto, Canada -- TELETOON journeys into another dimension this fall with the launch of the new kid-adventure animated series, Dr. Dimensionpants. The series follows 12-year-old Kyle Lipton, an ordinary kid who mysteriously receives a pair of magical glowing trousers that turn him into Dr. Dimensionpants, a cosmic superhero with a pointy moustache. The hilarious 26 x 30 minute animated series premieres in TELETOON's Can't Miss Thursdays block starting November 6 at 6:30 p.m. ET/PT, following Clarence. On TÉLÉTOON in Quebec, the series will premiere day-and-date in French as Dr. Pantastique.
"We can't wait to introduce our TELETOON audience to this fun-filled imaginative series," says Athena Georgaklis, Director of Content, TELETOON. "The characters are vibrant and dynamic – we have no doubt kids will be enticed by Kyle, the 12-year-old mustached and magic pant-wearing superhero and his unicorn best friend."
Created by Brad Peyton (Cats & Dogs 2: Revenge of Kitty Galore, Journey 2: The Mysterious Island) and produced by DHX Media and TELETOON, Dr. Dimensionpants showcases new superhero, Kyle, with all the crazy-weird superhero powers he ever wanted…and more responsibility than he can handle. With the help of his talking unicorn mentor Philip, Dr. Dimensionpants must learn to master his powers as he defends his hometown of Ganderville from the constant threat of inter-dimensional villains while still having to deal with his normal, day-to-day kid issues like homework, girls, and his annoyingly smart little sister.
"We are thrilled that TELETOON will be premiering this terrific new series from creator Brad Peyton this fall," said Steven DeNure, President and COO of DHX Media. "Dr. Dimensionpants has that boisterous quirkiness that kids find hilarious, so we think our mustachioed 12-year-old hero and his talking unicorn pal, Philip, will be a big hit."
