Super Happy Magic Forest is based on Matty Long’s best-selling books, published by Oxford University Press. The comedy quest adventure follows five heroes—a faun, unicorn, gnome, fairy, and mushroom—united by their love of questing, picnics, and frolicking. Inspired by British fantasy with a comedic twist, the series delivers imaginative stories from balloon deliveries to panpipe magic and portal wardrobes. Featuring an all-star British cast including Judi Love, Julian Barrett, Greg McHugh, Spencer Jones, Jules De Jongh, and Oliver Chris, it’s commissioned by BBC, RAI, Canal+, ZDF, and ABC. Launched October 2024 on CBBC and iPlayer, it quickly became a hit—171% slot uplift and in top 10 all summer. With strong results across partners, the show also thrives online with CBBC games, a Roblox tie-in, and growing YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok presence.
