HARI has appointed Retail Monster as its exclusive consumer products licensing agent for the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, as it launches the global licensing roll-out of Grizzy & the Lemmings. The announcement marks a new phase in the growth of one of the most widely watched children\u2019s IPs in the world.<\/p>\n
Grizzy & the Lemmings is a fast-paced, non-dialogue slapstick comedy that centres on the rivalry between Grizzy \u2014 a grumpy bear who claims the ranger\u2019s house as his own \u2014 and a tribe of fearless lemmings who turn his quiet life into chaos.<\/p>\n
With 312 episodes across four seasons, HARI plans to expand the universe even further, with two new brand seasons of the series (four and five) in development.<\/p>\n
The show has become a global sensation, airing in 200 territories on both linear and non-linear platforms including Netflix, France T\u00e9l\u00e9visions, BBC, Warner Bros. Discovery, and Super RTL. It has consistently ranked among the Top 10 most-watched kids\u2019 animated series on Netflix since 2023, and currently sits in the Top 5 for kids aged 6+ worldwide. On YouTube, the series garners over 1.5 billion views annually and has surpassed 10 million subscribers \u2014 reinforcing its cross-platform appeal, strong co-viewing performance with families, and a growing nostalgic fan base. With its fast-paced\u00a0 humor and universal tone, Grizzy & the Lemmings is steadily carving out its place in the pop culture landscape.<\/p>\n
On the back of this exceptional momentum, HARI is now developing a 360\u00b0 brand strategy for Grizzy & the Lemmings, building a long-term licensing and merchandising programme across key global markets \u2014 starting with the U.S., Canada, and the U.K., where Retail Monster will lead the charge.<\/p>\n
