Breakthrough Entertainment announced today that they have licensed the children’s animated series, Jimmy Two-Shoes, to Cartoon Network in Asia and Australia. The announcement was made today by Craig McGillivray, Sales Executive.

“Being the #1 screened title at MIPCOM Jr., there was naturally a lot of momentum toward the series,” said McGillivray, “CN Asia expressed a strong interest for ‘Jimmy’ from the beginning. We’re happy to be working with them again and feel they will provide a great home for the series.”

Cartoon Network in Asia and Australia has acquired twenty-six, half-hour episodes. The broadcast line-up for Jimmy Two-Shoes already includes TELETOON in Canada, Jetix US, Jetix Europe and Nickelodeon Latin America.
