Enlisting their intrepid friends from around the globe as specialized Octo-Agents, and equipped with a new fleet of land-based Terra Gups, the Octonauts’ mission is as vital as ever: They will EXPLORE harsh and remote environments, RESCUE animals that need their help, and PROTECT the land and all living creatures!“ -Silvergate Media, 2021 “The fresh content and brand relaunch will reinvigorate the Octonauts global licensing programme, while continuing to take advantage of the brand heritage and loyal consumer fanbase. “As of now, six seasons have been commissioned that will run right through to spring 2024,” Lisa explains. Season 3 & Season 4 are available to watch on BBC iPlayer (UK) Unlike the original show, Above & Beyond’s merchandising comes from Moose Toys, known best for their successful Bluey line of figures and plush toys.Īs of now, Season 1 and Season 2 are both available to stream on Netflix worldwide in many different languages. Originally, it was planned for all 156 episodes of this series to be released by the spring of 2024 (end of May), according to the vice president of Silvergate Media: Lisa Macdonald. However, Silvergate is pushing for the series to air on TV again in the future. ![]() ![]() Like the Octonauts Netflix specials, Above & Beyond is exclusive to the streaming platform. The series is created by Silvergate Media, with Mainframe Studios (responsible for the Octonauts Netflix specials and Season 5) continuing to be involved in the production of new content for the franchise. Multiple seasons are expected for the series, with the production of 156 episodes (specials counting as 2 episodes) lasting from 2021 to 2024. Due to this, many episodes completely exclude the presence of certain Octonauts, and in the first season it was common for Captain Barnacles and Kwazii in particular to barely attend missions at all. Some episodes, however, can have almost entire crew go out on one mission, though this occurrence is rare. Instead, the series now has a group of usually 2-3 of the Octonauts go out to help whichever Octo-Agent sounded the Octo Alert. The series also drops the original show's format of having just Barnacles, Kwazii and Peso go out on missions. The new series also introduces the concept of " Terra Gups", which are Gups exclusively for land adventures. Almost all previously introduced friends and family of the Octonauts have been recruited as Octo-Agents, sporting new watches that can signal an Octo-Alert, amongst other helpful features. Another addition is the gained assistance of reoccurring characters from the new “Octo-Agents” branch, such as Min the Mapmaker and newcomers Paani and Selva. In this new show, there is an increased focus on exploring locations across the globe and helping creatures above the sea, in contrast to the original show. There is no confirmation of Netflix release dates for either seasons yet. Its fourth season also premiered on BBC iPlayer (UK) on February 19th, 2024. Its third season premiered in China on May 26th, 2023, and premiered BBC iPlayer (UK) on October 16th, 2023. As of 2022, the series has two seasons with forty eight 11-minute episodes, along with two 22-minute specials. It debuted on Netflix on September 7th, 2021 with 25 episodes. Octonauts: Above & Beyond is an official sequel series to the original "Octonauts" show. ![]()
