Since its March 2013 debut, Rovio’s groundbreaking mobile video distribution channel has catapulted Rovio Animation Studios series to billions of global viewers.
Espoo, Finland – December 16th – In March 2013, Rovio turned every Angry Birds game into a video distribution channel and instantly a star was born. ToonsTV launched to an immediate audience of hundreds of millions of global viewers. This week and before its second birthday, ToonsTV reached 4 billion views in 230 countries with the biggest audiences in US, UK, China, Mexico and Russia. The massively popular content from Rovio Animation Studio and its partners can be accessed with a simple tap of an on-screen button, online at toons.tv and on Comcast, and from Roku boxes and Samsung Smart TVs.
“Mobile is the primary screen for much of our audience so it was important for us to provide quality entertainment in the way that our fans wanted it,” said Mikael Hed, CEO of Rovio. “When we launched ToonsTV on Rovio’s games we had no idea how big this would become. We saw the potential for our games to be a launch pad for an easy-to-use video channel. Four billion views later, I would say we succeeded.”
“ToonsTV combines top-quality animation with a revolutionary method of distribution. Along with our animated series, we produce a variety of content from music videos to live action,” said Steve Pegram, Animation Production Executive. “ We are proud that the Rovio Animation Studio has grown into the largest in the Nordics, with over 100 industry veterans and professionals from around the world”.

Toons fans can also enjoy Hasbro Studio’s Transformers Generation 1, Aardman’s Shaun of the Sheep and Wallace and Gromit: Cracking Contraptions.
In spirit of the festivities Piggy Tales comes back with an extra animation clip to wish everyone Happy Holidays with ‘Snowed Up’, a special wintery episode.
