Upcoming Cartoon 'Angry Birds Toons' to be Available in Rovio's Line of Games

[MacRumors]

Angry Birds Toons, Rovio's upcoming animated series, will be distributed through its existing line of iOS and Android apps to reach more than 1.7 billion users that have downloaded the games.

Angry Birds titles that are in the App Store will be updated with a new video channel that will allow access to the show. The cartoon will also be available on select TV networks, Samsung Smart TVs, Comcast's Xfinity platform, and Roku boxes.

"We're delighted to introduce all this through our new channel, with easy and instant access to the stories in the palm of your hand. With over 1.7 billion downloads, we can reach a far wider and more engaged global audience than traditional distribution would allow. Launching the channel, and partnering up with some of the best video-on-demand providers and TV networks, is an important milestone for us on our journey towards becoming a fully fledged entertainment powerhouse."

Angry Birds Toons will feature a total of 52 episodes with a new episode airing each week. The show will hit televisions on March 16 and will be available within Rovio's apps on March 17.

How long are these episodes going to be? A year long season doesn't seem feasible for full length episodes...

Personally, I'm more excited for the Cyanide and Happiness cartoons this fall.

As little as I like Angry Birds, it's amazing to think that a mobile phone spawned an entire brand.
