Superights is proud to announce the acquisition of the distribution rights of “DOOPIE” (26×7’), a live action series targeted at 3 to 5 year-old children.
Produced by Dutch studio SUBMARINE, founded by Bruno FELIX, “DOOPIE” invites young viewers in sweet and original stories.
Doopie, a plush toy who lives in a store, goes out into the world, full of enthusiasm. Every day, he meets other children, with whom he has all kinds of adventures. Thanks to Doopie‘s adventurous and inquisitive nature, they land in many bizarre situations, which Doopie ‘solves’ in his own unique, completely illogical, but humorous way!
This colorful program helps children in their daily life learning process through the adventures of our hero Doopie, and will be presented at the upcoming Miptv.

Our plush hero Doopie meets a wide range of 26 different kids and embarks on a small story that we believe many kids will engage with. Doopie is made in close collaboration with Dutch pubcaster NTR, and Belgium partners Walking the DOG and KETNET, combining the best of our drama production talents with those of the animation world to create a cute preschool series. » says Bruno FELIX, founder and producer at Submarine.
