LONDON - Jetix Europe has acquired the European pay-TV rights to quirky adventure comedy Iggy Arbuckle from Toronto- and LA-based Blueprint Entertainment and National Geographic Kids.

The kidcaster has also acquired TV distribution rights (with the exception of free TV in Germany and all French-speaking rights) and home video and consumer product agency rights for the series across Europe (with the exception of Scandinavia and Central/Eastern Europe).

Disney's Buena Vista International Television is to service the distribution of its television rights to Iggy Arbuckle on behalf of Jetix Europe and will launch the 26 episodes at MipTV in April 2007. The show will air on all Jetix Europe channels from August 2007.
