Apple TV+ announces "BE@RBRICK," new animated series for kids and families based on Medicom Toy's BE@RBRICK figures

Based on the world-renowned collectible bear-shaped figures, new series hails from DreamWorks Animation and Dentsu Inc.

Apple TV+ today announced it will expand its Academy and Emmy Award-winning offering of stories for kids and families with "BE@RBRICK," a new 13-episode animated series from DreamWorks Animation and Dentsu Inc., and based on Medicom Toy's world-renowned collectible bear-shaped figures.

"BE@RBRICK" is a music-driven comedy about young singer-songwriter Jasmine and her bandmates as they pursue their dreams and inspire others to do the same.
