Pedro Eboli _(Netflix “Cupcake and Dino: General Services”, Cartoon Network LATAM “Oswaldo”, Nickelodeon “Ollie’s Pack” and Discovery Kids LATAM “Bada Bean) _showcased some of the show ideas that he and Mark Satterthwaite (Netflix “Cupcake and Dino: General Services”, Cartoon Network LATAM “Oswaldo”, Nickelodeon “Ollie’s Pack” and Discovery Kids LATAM “Bada Bean”) pitched to Disney Television Animation in 2019 which lead them to ink a overall development deal with the studio however the deal was paused due the COVID-19 cuts at The Walt Disney Company.

These cuts also affected several pilots getting scrapped like “Weird Waters ” by Bob Bowen & Jacob Hair , “Runaway Planet ” by Ben Balistreri and a yet to be revealed show by Sage Cotugno. Eboli and Satterthwaite would return to Disney TVA in 2023 with a new pilot sadly it would get passed in November 2024.

Let’s hope new Disney TVA VP of Development & Current Zack Ollin gives a new look to these ideas in the near future.

“Back in 2019, me and my buddy Marc created five small animated comedy pitches to take to Disney TVA. In two months, we came up with the ideas and created these five little 12 page booklets, all color-coded, each with one of the ideas. The crazy thing that happened next is that we took it to Disney and sold ALL five pitches in the room! I couldn’t believe it. And that’s how me and Mark got an overall deal with Disney, and how I ended up moving to LA.

Then 2020 came, and it was a very normal year when nothing strange happened. This is the closest I’ll ever get to showing some Disney stuff, because they still own the ideas . But these booklets in particular, I don’t think anyone cares at this point!” - Pedro Eboli
