Binka (Reboot)

Binka is a 2020 British-American animated children's television series about the adventures of a fat black and white tom cat named Binka. It will be based on the 2001-2005 series originally created by Rosemary Graham. Each episode is ten minutes long. The TV show will air on BBC2, Cbeebies and PBS Kids. The show will last for one season. The theme song will be the same as the theme song used in the 2001 series.
