List of Kaeloo episodes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following is a list of episodes from Kaeloo, a French animated television series produced by Cube Creative, Blue Spirit (seasons 1–2) and Xilam Animation (season 5), in collaboration with Canal+, CNC and Comptoir du Son, respectively for channels Canal+ Family (seasons 1–2), Télétoon+ (seasons 3–4) and Canal+ Kids (season 5). The series has aired 241 episodes, with most being 7 minutes long (the third season premiere, "Et si on jouait à l'episode très special", is a quadruple-length special clocking in at 26 minutes).

Kaeloo centers around the adventures of a group of anthropomorphic animal friends, Kaeloo the frog (Kaelou in the pilot), Stumpy the squirrel, (Moignon in the pilot), Quack-Quack the duck, Mr. Cat the cat, and as of Seasons 2 and 5, Pretty the rabbit, Eugly the rabbit, Olaf the penguin, Game Rule and Stumpy's seven sisters, who live on a planet known as Smileyland (Pays Trop Mignon in French, which means "Very Cute Country") and play games to keep themselves from getting bored. Things always go wrong due to Stumpy's ineptitude at almost everything, Quack-Quack's addiction to yogurt, Pretty's unkindness (in the earlier seasons), Eugly's emotional vulnerability (even though she is big, weighs 10 tons, and went to art school in season 5), Olaf's desire to take over the world, Mr. Cat's constant cheating and abuse of the others, and Kaeloo's ability to transform into a hulking toad monster named Bad Kaeloo (Bad Kaelou in the Pilot) when angered.

The series premiered on Canal+ Family's Cartoon+ block in France on June 6, 2010[1] with its first season, followed by the second on December 1, 2012, the third on December 18, 2016, the fourth on December 25, 2019, and the fifth on April 8, 2023. The fifth season concluded on April 13, 2023, and there have been no plans to continue the show since then.[2][3] On June 13, 2024, series co-creator Rémi Chapotot announced on his Instagram that he was leaving Cube Creative, seemingly ending any chances of Kaeloo coming back.[4]
