Get Blake! (formerly Blake and the Aliens) is a French/American children's animated television series. The series is produced by the French animation company Marathon Media for Gulli and the global Nickelodeon network. The show first premiered on March 2, 2015 on Nicktoons in the United Kingdom and Ireland. It premiered on Nickelodeon in France on April 13 and debut on Gulli in late 2015.
Get Blake! was created by Antoine Guilbaud, an animator from France currently based in Los Angeles. Guilbaud's previous experiences in animation have included writing and storyboarding on hit series such as Rocko's Modern Life, Camp Lazlo and Phineas & Ferb. Acclaimed independent cartoonist Kaz, who had previously collaborated with Guilbaud on the latter two shows, was brought on board as co-executive producer.
The series tracks the exploits of Blake Myers, an adventurous boy who is destined to one day become a space ranger who protects humanity from alien squirrels called "Squaliens". The Squaliens, however, are sent back in time to prevent Blake from fulfilling this destiny.
Get Blake! was originally going to premiere on Nickelodeon in the United States in April 2015, but instead began to air on Nicktoons on April 20, 2016. The series premiered on Nickelodeon in Africa on April 6 but later moved to Nicktoons in Africa from November 2 for new episodes and on Nickelodeon in Australia and New Zealand on May 17.
