Zig and Zag is a British/Irish animated sitcom TV series featuring the extraterrestrial puppets Zig and Zag from the planet Zog. It currently airs on CBBC and RTÉjr. Both Zig and Zag reprise the same voices as they originally had, who are also the creators and writers, Ciaran Morrison and Mick O'Hara.
Alien bro's Zig and Zag crash land in humdrum suburbia and set up home. On their fun filled adventures they 'make the most' of what Planet Earth has to offer. You'll never have neighbours as out-of-this-world as Zig and Zag.
The above actors also act as an ensemble cast providing all additional voices for recurring or one-off characters that feature in each episode.
On 15 April 2015 it was announced that a new animated Zig and Zag series was in production for CBBC. On 16 August 2015 the theme tune was composed and recorded by Ricky Wilson and Simon Rix from the band Kaiser Chiefs. It was also announced that it would start in early 2016.
The first series of twenty six episodes began broadcasting on RTÉjr on 1 March 2016 and CBBC on 25 April 2016.
A series of shorts, known as Zogcasts air on CBBC.
