Scheduled to premiere on Channel 5’s Milkshake this summer and KiKA later in 2021, Bulldog Licensing has been appointed to bring “Odo” to life through consumer products. 

“We’ve always been big fans of Bulldog and are delighted they are taking ‘Odo’ under their wing to manage our global consumer products program,” says Colin Williams, creative director, Sixteen South. “With their outstanding reputation, we know that ‘Odo’ couldn’t be in better hands. We have had an amazing response to the series from broadcasters from the U.S. to Australia, Canada and across Europe, with strong presales already, and we’re sure that Bulldog will soon have licensees flocking to get on board.” 

“We were completely enchanted by ‘Odo’ – it’s warm-hearted and funny with a really important message,” says Rob Corney, group managing director, Bulldog Licensing. “We’re excited to be working together with such a talented studio as Sixteen South to help it take flight around the world.
