Elliott from Earth 2021
Elliott from Earth is a British animated television series that was developed by Cassuto, Mic Graves, and Tony Hull for Cartoon Network under the direction of Guillaume Cassuto. The series is produced by Cartoon Network Studios Europe and centers on an 11-year-old boy named Elliott and his mother Frankie as they journey across Earth to examine 65-million-year-old rock meteorites. When a meteorite without fusion crust is accidentally activated, it transforms into a transport sphere that sends them flying to the opposite side of the Universe. The pair land on a massive space station known as the Centrium, where they encounter a dinosaur named Mo who had lost the rock in a biosphere wilderness.
The group explores their new surroundings and meets the alien residents of the station, eventually finding their way into the city of Centrium City, where they settle in. While adjusting to life there, Elliott, Frankie, and Mo continue to discover the unique aspects of their new environment. The show was originally announced, greenlit, and pitched in July 2018 for 20 episodes by the creators who previously worked on The Amazing World of Gumball. Production began in September December 2019, but soon after, creator Guillaume Cassuto left Cartoon Network in October of that year. His departure was followed by Mic Graves and Tony Hull taking over as showrunners.
The series was delayed from 2020 to March 6, 2021 for its debut in the United Kingdom and Africa. It later premiered in the United States on March 29 and concluded its run on April 9, 2021. The show was added to HBO Max on September 10, 2021, although it was removed from the platform on August 17, 2022. Although it received positive reviews from critics, Elliott from Earth was cancelled after just one season due to low marketing efforts and poor viewership.
