Shaq’s Garage (52 x 11’) is an animated comedy, action-adventure series for children starring Shaquille O’Neal, co-produced by Telegael (Ireland) and Genius Brands International (USA).
Shaq’s Garage depicts the secret adventures of Shaquille’s extraordinary collection of animated cars, trucks, and automobiles – the Shaq Pack – who are magically brought to life by a failed experiment with AI technology. Each hilarious episode features O’Neal and his Shaq Pack on crazy, fun adventures that are all about doing good in the neighbourhood.
Through comedy and adventure Shaq’s Garage showcases strong and diverse characters as positive role models with purposeful storytelling. Every car has a larger-than-life personality, larger than life missions and of course, larger than life sound systems. One of the cars is missing a wheel, but she is as strong, fast, and smart as any other vehicle.
All the vehicles in Shaq’s Garage have unique attributes, intellects and skills ranging from musical stylings, Shaq Fu, and their mastery of the ultra-secret language of Shaqanese and the Shaqtionary. Whether in Sheijing on a secret mission or visiting an ancient shrine in the lost city of Shaqmandu, each story will be as special as the vehicles and Shaquille himself.
Shaq’s Garage will premiere on Kartoon Channel! in 2023.
“Telegael is thrilled to work with our colleagues Genius Brands International on such a wonderful series for children which not alone has highly entertaining storylines but will showcase strong and diverse characters. It is also a fantastic opportunity for Telegael as an Irish company to be involved in co-producing a series with NBA legend, Shaquille O’Neal” said Telegael CEO, Paul Cummins.
