Cool Cats, an on-the-rise global storytelling brand, is set to captivate audiences with the highly anticipated launch of The Milk Chug, an animated series that marks a significant expansion of its universe. Teaming up with the Emmy Award-winning animation studio Titmouse (Big Mouth, The Venture Bros.), Cool Cats leverages top-tier expertise to bring its beloved characters to life in a distinctive style that seamlessly captures the charm, humor, and heart of the beloved Blue Cat, Chugs and friends. The official trailer drops today, with the full 13-episode season premiering on September 26, 2024, exclusively on Cool Cats’ YouTube channel, @TheMilkChugShow.
“Cool Cats stands at the crossroads of entertainment and technology, where traditional storytelling meets a brand powered by new innovation. This series demonstrates the opportunities to tell stories in ways that transcend platforms, and bridge the best of Hollywood’s talent—in both Titmouse and our incredible cast—bringing fans into a fully immersive universe driven cross-platform capabilities,” Shara Senderoff, Executive Producer of The Milk Chug. “Collaborating with Titmouse on the Cool Cats universe is an absolute dream come true,” added Cool Cats founder and creator Clon.
Named after their coffee shop, The Milk Chug follows the playful and hilarious adventures of Blue Cat and his friends, a collection of characters who have procured a global fandom over the past decade by coming to life in a wide breadth of mediums and content, cementing their place in internet culture. Today, Dana Snyder (Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Squidbillies) and Natasha Leggero (Ugly Americans, Another Period) are announced to join the star-studded voice cast, which includes Zeno Robinson (Dragon Ball Super, The Owl House) as Blue Cat, Dan Stevens (Beauty and the Beast, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire) as Ardi, and Maggie Lawson (Psych, Lethal Weapon) as Jo. Snyder and Leggero bring their comedic talents to the animated series, adding humor and energy to the whimsical world of The Milk Chug.
Executive producers of The Milk Chug include Clon (the creator of Cool Cats), Shara Senderoff, Maggie Lawson, and Dylan Flinn. The series’ direction is led by Titmouse veteran Parker Simmons, celebrated for his work on Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart.
“They say if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life. If that’s the case, me and the team are going to jail for extreme wage theft, because making these cartoons was an absolute joy!,” says Titmouse veteran Parker Simmons who directed The Milk Chug series.
The Milk Chug marks a major milestone for Cool Cats, further establishing its presence as a new type of IP to enter in the entertainment landscape. The series follows the brand’s balloon debut in the 2023 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, which resulted in its explosive sell-out of Macy’s collaborative merchandise in just 24 hours. With its global fan base continuing to grow, Cool Cats has evolved from a blue-chip digital collectible brand into a major player in storytelling and animation.
Each episode of The Milk Chug will be released on Cool Cats’ YouTube channel, ensuring free and easy access for fans worldwide. The series launch represents Cool Cats’ latest step in bridging the worlds of digital collectibles, animation, and immersive storytelling.
