The Beeps (partially lost Milkshake! CGI animated series; 2007-2008)
The Beeps is a children's CGI animated series created by Malou Bonicos that aired on Channel 5's Milkshake! block from 2007-2008. The series' about a group of characters called the Beeps living their daily lives on Beep Island. The show also aired in over 65 different countries.
Development
The show was originally pitched under the title The Wot-a-Lots as a stop-motion animated series with a test short titled "Wot-a-Splash!." The characters were made into 3D hand-crafted wooden models made by a group of animators at Cosgrove Hall Films Studios in Chorlton-Cum-Hardy, Manchester in the United Kingdom.[1] The network initially turned it down until 10 years later when the series was pitched again, but in CGI animation with the characters looking similar to the original short. The network then greenlit the show and went on to run for 65 episodes.
Status
After it's initial run, the show fell into obscurity with only 1 official DVD release titled Here Come The Beeps and very few episodes available to watch online until 2022 when 10 episodes were uploaded by various YouTubers. As of now, the rest of the series has yet to resurface.
