This February more Mischief and Magic for kids on Cartoon Network

Showcasing its universal lineage and iconic partnerships, Cartoon Network India is all set to launch two new shows - Lego Mixels and Steven Universe, which will treat kids to the best international animation series. Children can now kick-start their weekends with the mischievous shorts of Mixels every Saturday at 8:00am and the magical adventures in Steven Universe every Sunday at 10:30am. Talking about shows, Krishna Desai, Sr. Director & Network Head - Kids, South Asia, Turner International India Pvt. Ltd. said, “We are thrilled to launch Lego Mixels and Steven Universe in India that represent Cartoon Network’s illustrious and trans-global portfolio. The partnership with Lego is the next step in the evolution of Cartoon Network Studios and the way we co-develop original IPs. Steven Universe is our latest and biggest original series, that has been creating waves across the world. Kids in India can look forward to all this new excitement, entertainment, humour, adventure and wackiness on Cartoon Network.” Mixels is a groundbreaking global franchise created by the powerhouse partnership of two of the biggest forces in kids’ entertainment – Cartoon Network and the LEGO Group. Mixels is centred around a world of colorful creatures who can mix and combine with each other leading to hilarious and surprising results. They are comical, mischievous creatures that live in tribes of three. Each tribe is based around a unique natural element. The Infernites are fiery and short tempered, but handy for a barbeque. The Cragsters are the industrious mining tribe and the Electroids are a quirky bunch with enough nervous energy to light up the whole world. Nixels, annoying and destructive little creatures, wreak havoc over the Mixel land trying to tear down and break apart the tribes. Mixels will air as 2 minute shorts every Saturday at 8am. It started airing from 15 February, 2014. Steven Universe is the latest original animated comedy series from Cartoon Network Studios. Steven Universe is about the misadventures of a boy named Steven, the ultimate “little brother” to a team of magical guardians of humanity—the Crystal Gems. Steven may not be as powerful as the Crystal Gems or as savvy. But that doesn’t stop him from joining his sisters - Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl on their magical adventures and somehow finding a way to save the day! It is created by Emmy® and Annie Award-nominated writer and storyboard artist Rebecca Sugar. Steven Universe premiered on 16 February 2014 and will air every Sunday at 10:30am on Cartoon Network.
