About DreamWorks Animation Television
DreamWorks Animation Television is the episodic television and streaming production division of DreamWorks Animation. Operating within NBCUniversal’s Universal Filmed Entertainment Group, it develops and produces original animated series, specials, and franchise expansions for children, preschool, and family audiences.
The contemporary division launched in 2013 following major television distribution agreements with Netflix and Super RTL. Its formation established a sustained series-production model alongside DreamWorks Animation’s theatrical business. An earlier DreamWorks Television Animation operation ran from 1996 to 1999 before its work was consolidated into the direct-to-video and feature unit.
Series production
The studio manages development, writing, voice recording, visual development, design, and editorial work, while coordinating large-scale episodic production with international animation partners. Its work spans 2D and 3D CG animation, hybrid and mixed-media approaches, character and environment design, storyboarding, animation direction, audio post-production, and delivery mastering.
Its slate includes creator-driven series and television extensions of established DreamWorks properties. Productions include Gabby’s Dollhouse, Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous, Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, The Bad Guys: The Series, Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia, Voltron: Legendary Defender, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, The Boss Baby: Back in Business, and The Croods: Family Tree.
Distribution and audience
DreamWorks Animation Television produces programming for streaming platforms including Netflix, Peacock, Apple TV+, and Hulu, as well as linear broadcast and cable outlets. Its work combines original world-building with serialized adaptations and spinoffs, supporting multi-season programming for global family audiences.
The division is an active operating unit of DreamWorks Animation L.L.C. Its dedicated television leadership and episodic production scope remain distinct from the parent studio’s feature-animation group.
