France tv distribution is delighted to announce the launching of the international distribution of MAEBEE, a new animated series produced by Karrot Studio & Kavaleer.

Distributed worldwide by France tv distribution, this program will be launched at MIPCOM, taking place in Cannes, France, from October 13 to 16, 2025.

Synopsis

The small but mighty escapades of one determined gnome called MAE and her befuddled brother, BEE!

MAE is a gnome like no other: she is the smallest gnome in the whole magical valley, and she is also really strong! Her goal: fill her book of BIG the fastest she can, to finally be considered a grown-up.

Helped by her foster twin BEE, and a bit of magic, she'll be heading off on a whole host of crazy adventures where she’ll learn everything she needs to become a grown-up: trust, understanding, openness or creativity!

Chris White (CEO for Karrot Entertainment):

"We've been so thrilled by France tv distribution's enthusiasm and passion for MaeBee, and think they are the perfect team to help Mae and Bee travel the globe and share their adventures with viewers, worldwide!"

Michelle Palant (International Sales Manager at France tv distribution) and Julia Schulte (SVP International Sales at France tv distribution):

"We are delighted to work with Karrot on this preschool gem. MAE and BEE invite you into their magical colourful world of gnomes, and we truly believe these stories will resonate with children all over the world."
