Plot
True and the Rainbow Kingdom follows True and her best friend Bartleby the Cat, as they help the whimsical citizens of the Rainbow Kingdom, a wondrous, colorful universe filled with delightful and fantastical citizens. True is the only one with the ability to activate the magical powers of The Wishes of the Wishing Tree, solve problems in the Rainbow Kingdom, and empower viewers with her imagination, mindfulness, and empathy.
Development and production
The series was originally announced in March 2013. Titled Wish Come True at that time after the eponymous designer toys by FriendsWithYou, it was planned to have 10 half-hour episodes in a season, as produced by Home Plate Entertainment.[8]
In June 2015, TVO has announced 5 new titles for their line-up of preschool series. Among them was True and the Rainbow Kingdom, and this time, it was announced to have ten 22-24-minute episodes in a season, and slated to be released in 2017. In the announcement, Pharrell Williams' I Am Other was also included in the list of companies.[1] [2] [3]
Characters
- True (voiced by Michela Luci): An 8-year-old strong heroine. True possesses a warm heart, a clever mind and boundless energy. She accepts every challenge head-on with a beaming smile. What makes True "truly" extraordinary is that she is the only one in the Rainbow Kingdom who can activate the Wishes' special powers that unleash magical energy.
- Bartleby (voiced by Jamie Watson): True's funny cat sidekick, Bartleby, has a lot of bravado and the gift of gab. Only True, his best friend, knows he is actually a bit of a scaredy-cat. He is one opinionated kitty and provides a lot of commentary, which helps trigger True's creative problem-solving skills.
- Rainbow King (voiced by Eric Peterson): The lovable ruler of the Rainbow Kingdom, he is a kind, sympathetic and humble king. Though he possesses a wealth of knowledge, he shares his wisdom in riddles adding fun complexity to True's adventures. He will do anything to help True on her journey but he knows that "true" success is achieved when True solves problems all on her own.
- Zee (voiced by Dante Zee (season 1–2), later voiced by Nicolas Aqui (season 3-present)): Zee is True's buddy, an apprentice to the Rainbow King, and the wish keeper. One or two years older than True, Zee is a trained "Wishologist", which means he takes care of the Wishes and knows all about their strengths and powers. Once a problem arises in the kingdom, True seeks out Zee's advice and wish help in the Wishing Tree.
- Grizelda (voiced by Anna Bartlam): Grizelda is a self-centered young princess. Deep down she realizes she needs a friend like True. Although True tries to reach out to the Princess, Grizelda's self-absorbed ways can make that challenging; however, love in Rainbow Kingdom is unconditional, so True never stops trying. Grizelda is just someone who is a little selfish which only means she needs a little more love.
- Frookie: A dog and Grizelda's sidekick. Looks out for the difficult princess because he knows the inner Grizelda is not so bad.
- The Wishes: Non-verbal but highly expressive, the wishes communicate with goofy gestures and sweet sounds. Each one has a unique, big personality that complements or contrasts their power. The Wishes share a special bond with True but until they are called to action, they stay busy training with Zee. Each Wish is imbued with a special power that only True can "Spark".
Other characters
- Yetis - creatures that live in The Rainbow Kingdom and communicate in "Yeti-ish". There is, however, one word known to all Yetis that they'll greet you with accompanied by a big wave. This is a loud, friendly "HI!"
- Urg and Snick - A Yeti couple who live in Yeti Village located in The Never Ending Forest. As the only one who speaks "Yeti-ish" (aside from the Rainbow King), True usually acts as a translator for their Yeti friends.
- Grock, Yerck, and Floof - Urg and Snick's baby Yeti triplets. Grock and Yerk are girls and Floof is a boy. The whole family are close friends to True and Bartelby.
- Rainbow citizens
- Grizmos – Grizelda's sidekicks who act as her servants and live in a cave beneath her castle.
- Cumulo – a cumulus cloud whom True and Bartleby ride on to get around the Rainbow Kingdom.
- Glummy Glooma - The Rainbow King's gloomy cousin who prefers everything be gloomy, whether anyone likes it or not. He also acts as the Grand Marshal of Grabbleapple Fest, as it is his yearly duty to bring the grey clouds of Autumn and change the seasons.
- Little Helpers - little four-armed critters found all around The Rainbow Kingdom, keeping it running with their helpful duties.
- Mila - a little girl who is a citizen of Rainbow City. She has a giant pet stink critter named "Stinko", no longer stinky thanks to True, Bartleby, and the wishes. She is also friends with Rocky the Rock Critter.
- Rocky - a Rock Critter who's friendly with Mila, The Rainbow King, and True and Bartleby. Among them, True is the only one who doesn't speak "Rock-ish", though.
- Bingo Bango – a boombox shaped DJ who's a bit shy and soft-spoken, but rocks the house of any party with his music.
- The Wishing Tree – a very important tree standing atop the Rainbow Castle where Zee, the Wish Keeper/Wishologist studies the Wishes that live there. Wee wishes are brought to the tree by the Rainbow King who collects them from Wishing Heart Hollow in the Never Ending Forest. True and Bartleby go here to ask Zee for advice to solve a problem with the help of Wishes.
- Shadow and Silverclaw - masters of The Kittynati, an ancient tribe of cat ninjas. After being invited to train with the duo at The Black Tabby Dojo, Bartleby eventually trades in his Yellow Tabby Belt for his Red Tabby Belt, making him a true Ninja Cat and Kittynati.
