Nicktoons, an animation channel operated by Paramount Global that airs reruns to various shows from its sister network, Nickelodeon has acquired rights to Pinky Malinky. After failing to launch to Nickelodeon, Netflix served as it's frontier.
Pinky Malinky premiered on January 1, 2019, on Netflix with a New Year's-themed short released just before. It also concluded during the year with 60 episodes across 3 seasons and for the past 7 years was available on the streamer.
With the licensing deal set to expire soon, Pinky Malinky will have its first exclusive run on Nicktoons from April 20. It is currently unknown when or if Pinky Malinky would eventually be made available on Nickelodeon
Synopsis for Pinky Malinky
Pinky Malinky is an infectiously positive, optimistic 12-year-old middle school student who just happens to be a walking, talking hot dog. He lives in the town of Sackenhack and sees the bright side of everything — even being born a hot dog. The show follows his everyday life and misadventures as he tries to climb the social ladder, pursue big ideas, and navigate typical kid problems alongside his two best friends (BFFs).
The series is presented in a mockumentary/fly-on-the-wall "reality show" format (similar to The Office), with characters occasionally breaking the fourth wall in confessionals. Pinky is full of enthusiasm, makes social media videos, sings, dances, and tackles challenges with his friends — though his extreme positivity sometimes leads to funny mishaps.
