Shaun the Sheep is a stop-motion animated silent comedy children's television series developed by Aardman Animations. A spin-off in the Wallace and Gromit franchise, the series focuses on the adventures of Shaun, the eponymous sheep previously starring in Wallace & Gromit in A Close Shave, as the leader of his flock on a English farm. The series debuted on March 5, 2007 on CBBC in the UK, also airing on BBC Two. Since 2020, the series is streamed globally on Netflix. In March 2024, it was announced that the seventh season is in development, and will premiere in 2025. With 170 episodes across six seasons, Shaun the Sheep is one of the longest-running animated series of all time in the history of British television.
The series inspired the spin-off Timmy Time, a show aimed at younger viewers that follows Timmy, Shaun's younger cousin. A feature-length film, Shaun the Sheep Movie, was released theatrically on February 6, 2015. A 30-minute short film, Shaun the Sheep: The Farmer's Llamas, was aired in 2015 as a Christmas TV special. A second feature-length film, A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon, was released theatrically on October 18, 2019. A second short film, Shaun the Sheep: The Flight Before Christmas, was released on Netflix on December 3, 2021.
In India, the series is dubbed for broadcast on television, with a narrator of sorts improvising and voice-acting the numerous characters in the otherwise dialogue-free cartoon in Hindi and numerous Dravidian languages.
