Lalaloopsy |
We're Lalaloopsy is an animated children's television series co-produced by MGA Entertainment and Splash Entertainment for Netflix. The series is based on the Lalaloopsy dolls from MGA Entertainment, and is a revival of the children’s animated television series Lalaloopsy on Nickelodeon. It debuted on Netflix on January 10, 2017.[1]
Premise
[edit]This Netflix Original series is a revival of Lalaloopsy, a Nick Jr. series that first aired in 2013. Although they both share the basic premise of rag dolls having adventures in Lalaloopsy Land, the exact details of each series vastly differ. 48 unique Lalaloopsies appeared in the original series. In contrast, We're Lalaloopsy only features 10 characters, a significant downgrade from 48.
The Netflix series also offers a more continuity based structure as opposed to the previous series's more episodic structure. We're Lalaloopsy mainly focuses on Storm E. Sky (who previously appeared in Lalaloopsy Girls: Welcome to L.A.L.A Prep School) gradually becoming accepted in Town Square, a section of Lalaloopsy Land.
Another difference from the original series is that We're Lalaloopsy has a different art style which is more shaded and emphasizes the dolls' facial features. Unlike Lalaloopsy, the Lalaloopsies are now voiced by adults.

- Storm E. Sky (voiced by Mariee Devereux) is a punky guitarist with stage fright and thus doesn't like to sing in front of an audience. She is the newest resident of Lalaloopsy Land.
