PITCH
The series follows a large family of marmots with tornado-like children at a ski resort. And when there are one hundred seventy-two pups to account for, even the smallest tasks become commando missions, forcing the family to perform one epic save after another.
CONCEPT
Marmots is a blend of old-school slapstick comedy and a modern Bluey-like family-centered show where Epic saves triumph over Epic fails. The foundation of this series is the natural comedy of children… and the horrible wonder of being parents.
In each episode, one family member wants something simple but with 172 siblings, nothing is easy. Personalities collide, boundaries get tested, however love always wins. Just real family chaos with a soft landing.
