T.O.T.S. Lead Sheet

“T.O.T.S.”

“T.O.T.S.,” a heartfelt animated comedy series for preschoolers, explores the hilarious adventures of best friends Pip and Freddy, a tenacious penguin and a kind-hearted flamingo, who are the only non-stork delivery birds in-training at Tiny Ones Transport Service (T.O.T.S.). As new members of the esteemed team, these junior flyers must use tender care in taking baby animals—kittens, cubs, calves, bunnies, puppies and joeys among them—from the nursery to their forever families around the globe.

The reputable T.O.T.S. organization is run by Captain Beakman, a tough but fair pelican who leads her team with efficiency and encouragement. She has a soft spot for Pip and Freddy, who have just landed their dream job as the newest junior flyers hoping to earn their wings. Pip is a determined and loyal problem-solver while Freddy is nurturing, upbeat and a little silly. In each episode, the loveable oddball duo must work together to overcome challenges and navigate adventures in order to earn a stamp in their handbooks—one for each successful delivery.

Set in a vibrant minicity in the sky, T.O.T.S. is a safe and magical starting point for baby animals. Upon arrival, they are tended to by K.C., a playful, free-spirited koala who runs the nursery with love, patience and expert care. When it’s time to depart for their forever homes, each adorable animal is placed in a customized crate specific to their needs. Every delivery bird has a Flypad which signals that it’s time to send another bundle of joy on its way, uniting the precious babies with their families around the world.

Created for kids age 2-7, the series is designed to communicate themes of friendship, nurturing, perseverance and accepting other’s differences through relatable characters, humorous situations and a variety of charming baby animals. Each episode features two 11-minute stories that highlight the use of creative thinking, teamwork and problem solving to model for young viewers that there is more than one way to achieve a goal. Music also plays an important role in the series with a new original song in every episode, in addition to the recurring delivery tune “Bringing This Baby Home.”

The series voice cast includes multiple award-winning performer Vanessa Williams (ABC’s “Ugly Betty”) as Captain Beakman, Broadway sensation Megan Hilty (“Smash”) as K.C., Jet Jurgensmeyer (“Last Man Standing”) as Pip and Christian J. Simon (Disney Channel’s “Sydney to the Max”) as Freddy.

“T.O.T.S.” is created and co-executive produced by Travis Braun (Disney Channel’s “Fast Layne”). Vic Cook (Disney’s “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse”) serves as executive producer with Chris Gilligan (Disney Junior’s “Goldie & Bear”) as co-executive producer and supervising director.
