The Unstoppable Yellow Yeti is an original animated comedy series for kids aged 6+ and their families. The series centres around an enormous, outrageous, and unstoppable Yellow Yeti who shakes up small-town life above the Arctic Circle when he befriends two 12-year-old kids. It has been co-commissioned by Disney Channel Europe, Middle East & Africa and Nordic broadcasters YLE, DR, NRK, and SVT – the first Finnish commission by Disney EMEA. The series comes from Finnish creators, who have put their own spin on universal stories of friendship, community and embracing difference. We’ve worked with writers from many different backgrounds, but every story has been filtered through a Nordic lens (inspired by the people, customs & traditions) to give it that unique feel, sense of place and off-kilter comedy that will make it stand out in the market. This has also been reflected in the distinct look of the show with its strongly identifiable design and colour palette.
