Furby Island
Furby Island was an upcoming cancelled 2006 animated series that, according to Official Furby Wiki, developed by Frederator Studios. It was to have 13 episodes in 1 season. The plot would had to do with Furby Island, as it was in the 2005 film, "Furby Island."
Cancellation
This series was announced on reddit by a former Frederator Studios employee. He stated that they were creating the series because the Furby Island movie was a great hit, and they wanted to proceed. They showed a backdoor pilot in 2006 to Nickelodeon president Herb Scannell, and they picked up the show. However, some months later, they changed to president Cyma Zarghami, and she asked for some changes to the series. They were against this and the show pushed back, and it never got known to the public.
Characters
Frederator, not giving up, showed the series one more time to Nick, but wasn't picked up. The only known roles of this show are:
Tara Strong as Noo Noo; aka The "Main Character and friend to Maddy."
Alyson Court as Maddy; aka The "Human Protector of the Furby Island and friend to Noo Noo."
Carlos Alazraqui as King Fulanaro; aka The "Furby King."
