Angry Birds TV series set to Air this Autumn, A Movie Coming on 2013

After the success the Angry Birds game series has achieved, it os only logical to see Rovio try out and push the franchise onto other mediums.

According to Rovio chief of animation, Nick Dorra, the Angry Birds characters will star in a 52 episodes TV Animation Show, each being two-and-a-half to three minutes long.

Unlike the games, the TV series will not be just about recklessly bashing pigs around. No, according to Dorra, we will find out about the "deeper thoughts, deeper feelings of the characters, such as why are they always angry?".

The TV series will supposedly be modeled after Disney TV productions, Dorra said: "Disney is a great model for us. We want to be seen as an entertainment company not a games company.", Dorra also told the audience that an Angry Birds film was in development as well but would not be released until 2013 or 2014.
