Backstory

Discover how the Mushables were created and how an animated TV series is made!

Mush-Mush was first born as a little figurine, created by Elfriede de Rooster, an artist from Belgium.

After drawing this little mushroom character on paper, Elfriede re-created him digitally and printed him in 3D! Now this world and these characters have been developed further and brought to life on screen in a comedy and adventure-packed TV series.

Mush-Mush & the Mushables follows the forest adventures of Mush-Mush, his best friends Lilit and Chep and the rest of the Mushable community, as they explore and grow up together. Mush-Mush & the Mushables is a fun journey of self-discovery, exciting outdoor adventure and mush mush more!

48 episodes of 11 minutes and 2 specials of 22 minutes are airing around the world, on Boomerang internationally, Piwi+ and Canal+ Family in France, RTS in Switzerland, Ketnet and RTBF in Belgium, RTL Telekids in The Netherlands, YLE in Finland, SVT in Sweden, NRK in Norway, LTV in Latvia, RTHK in Hong-Kong and more to come!
