Sprout, NBCUniversal’s preschool network, has acquired the rights for both the new CGI series and 3D feature film of Studio 100 Media's "Maya The Bee."

Both the series and the movie premiered on Sprout last Saturday.

“'Maya The Bee' takes preschoolers on exciting adventures filled with humor and action,” says Andrew Beecham, senior vice president of programming, Sprout. “We’re excited to introduce U.S. audiences to this colorful, fresh and joyful world.”
