Tyler Perry's Young Dylan Coming Soon To Play Room

Play Room, a South African based children's channel operated by Ngwato Nkosi Group offering a mixture animated and live action will be airing Tyler Perry's Young Dylan in December. This will follow a slate of content launching on the channel including Blippi and Shaq's Garage.

Synopsis for Tyler Perry's Young Dylan 

The show centers on Young Dylan (played by real-life rapper Dylan Gilmer), who dreams of becoming a hip-hop superstar. The main storyline begins when his grandmother, Viola, finds herself unable to handle raising him and sends him to live indefinitely with her affluent son, Myles Wilson, and his family in a nice suburban home. 

The central conflict and humor come from the immediate and significant culture clash between Young Dylan's "street smart" swagger and the conservative, orderly lifestyle of the Wilson family, which includes his uncle Myles, his aunt Yasmine, and his two cousins, Rebecca and Charlie. 

Throughout the series, the family tries to adapt to their new dynamic. Dylan works on his music and often teaches his cousins lessons in "swag" and street smarts, while also learning about family rules and the importance of a stable home environment. More serious themes like class distinctions and child abandonment are addressed with humor. 

Tyler Perry's Young Dylan aired on Nickelodeon from February 29, 2020, to April 30, 2025, over five seasons. It serves as the longest running live-action shows of the decade by the network basically tying shows such as Henry Danger which held the record within the 2010s.

It will broadcast daily at 17:00 on Play Room replacing the first slot of Supa Strikas (Zulu).
