Warner Bros. Consumer Products (WBCP), in partnership
with DC Entertainment, debuts the original YouTube series, DC Kids, a new show created specifically
for young Super Hero fans. Geared for kids and tweens, the first episode went live
Friday, March 3, and new episodes premiere every Friday.
From Telepictures Productions Inc., the same award-winning team that produces the popular
YouTube series DC All Access, DC Kids introduces two super-fans as the hosts of this exciting new
show, 11-year-old Jett Bednar and 14-year-old Analei T. Song. The show will be filled with all things
DC including fan-favorites such as DC Super Hero Girls, Teen Titans Go!, and Justice League Action.
Jett and Analei will bring viewers into all the action, including interviews from the red carpet,
exclusive access to San Diego Comic-Con and Toy Fairs, behind-the-scenes at Warner Bros.
Animation, and even grand openings of DC theme park rides and attractions.
“We’re excited to partner with DC Entertainment and Telepictures to bring this all-new YouTube
series to kids who love the DC Universe,” said Maryellen Zarakas, Senior Vice President, Worldwide
Franchise Management and Marketing, Warner Bros. Consumer Products. “DC Kids is a major part of
our strategy to deliver original short form content for kids. DC Kids represents our latest effort,
joining other great original animated shorts for DC Super Hero Girls and Justice League Action. Kids
will be able to catch DC Kids on YouTube, DCKids.com, and on the go with an all-new Justice League
Action mobile app.”
DC Kids will also be filled with non-stop fun and family-friendly content, including unboxings and
demos of the latest DC toys and products, Super Hero-themed DIY crafts, hacks, activities, and even
challenges that will let viewers get in on the fun! It will be a non-stop party at DC Kids!
In tomorrow premiere episode, fans will get a close-up look at The LEGO Batman Movie as Jett and
Analei unbox LEGO construction sets inspired by unforgettable moments from the blockbuster film.
“Following the success and popularity of DC All Access as the one-stop source for the latest DC
Universe news, launching DC Kids is a natural next step to continue to grow our original content lineup,
and to give fans, and particularly families, even more access and inside scoop on all things DC,”
stated Amit Desai, EVP, Business & Marketing Strategy, Direct to Consumer & Global Franchise
Management for DC Entertainment.
