Blue and small, and standing only three apples tall, The Smurfs are set to make their debut on Nickelodeon in an all-new series premiering in Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines on Monday, October 25.
The original CG-animated series marks the return of the globally renowned characters to television for the first time in nearly 40 years and follows Papa Smurf, Smurfette, Brainy, Hefty, Clumsy, and the other inhabitants of Smurf Village on all-new adventures, packed with humor, heart and high-stakes action. That’s not all—joining them will be a new tribe of girl Smurfs, led by brave and wise matriarch Willow.
In the premiere episode, “Smurf-Fu,” when Smurfette rescues Brainy from a giant snake, the other Smurfs ask her to teach them “Smurf-Fu.” Next in, “Diaper Daddy,” when everyone is tired of changing Baby’s diapers, Handy decides to invent a robot that will do the job.
The Smurfs expands Nickelodeon’s growing portfolio of influential properties that already includes SpongeBob SquarePants, PAW Patrol, Blue’s Clues & You!, and The Loud House. Other exciting titles making their way to screens across Asia include The Patrick Star Show, Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years, Big Nate, the all-new animated Star Trek: Prodigy series, and the Rugrats reboot.
The voice cast pushing the charm and absurdity of the original comics to even greater heights includes David Freeman (7 Promises) as Papa Smurf, the father figure keeping the other Smurfs in line; Berangere McNeese (Matriochkas) as Smurfette, a curious Smurf who is always ready to take part in new adventures; Lenny Mark Irons (No Man’s Land) as Gargamel, a conniving human wizard with a bottomless thirst to capture Smurfs; Youssef El Kaoukibi (NRJ Belgium) as Brainy, who considers himself the smartest of the bunch; and Catherine Hershey (Boundary Games) as Willow, the brave and wise matriarch of a new tribe of girl Smurfs.
Watch The Smurfs every weekday at 5.30 pm (WIB) and 6.30 pm (MY, PH) only at Nickelodeon.
