Awareness of Masha and the Bear, both as a licensed brand and a TV series, is exceptionally high among children and families in Italy, where Masha and her friend have been wildly popular since the launch of the first series .Repeat showings and new episodes of Masha and the Bear are greeted with enormous enthusiasm by big audiences on both Dea Junior and Rai YoYo.<\/p>\n<p>So popular is the brand that two spin-off series \u2013 Masha\u2019s Tales and Masha\u2019s Spooky Stories \u2013 have been created. Episodes of all three shows are also available on mobiles, PCs and tablets, and streaming on Infinity, a dedicated YouTube channel and the official Masha and the Bear Facebook page.<\/p>\n<p>The success of the property has also been reflected in a hit film \u2013 Masha and the Bear: Friends Forever \u2013 a popular live show, a dedicated site at a major theme park, numerous promotional partnerships and, of course, a thriving licensing campaign. Masha and the Bear remains one of the most sought-after licenses in the children\u2019s market; at present there are about 40 Masha and the Bear licenses in the Italian market alone. MDL has represented the property in Italy and Switzerland since its arrival in both markets.<\/p>\n<p>The show is also building strongly in a number of other territories. In the UK, season three of Masha and the Bear arrived earlier this month on Cartoonito, while in Latin America the new episodes began airing on Cartoon Network and Boomerang in April. The new series is also due to arrive on KIKA in Germany in a primetime slot from June.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maurizio Distefano, President, MDL<\/strong>, said: <em>\u201cMasha and the Bear\u2019s continuing success in Italy after a number of years makes it one of the most successful pre-school properties of recent years in that market.
