Cartoon Network's Samurai Jack has been voted the World's Best TV Series at the International Animated Film Festival. The animation festival in France screens 500 animated films from 33 countries with 5500 professional visitors and 380 journalists covering the events.
Samurai Jack was created by Genndy Tartakovsky, the talent behind Dexter's Laboratory and producer/director of The Powerpuff Girls. Samurai Jack has been a major rating success for Cartoon Network's channels around the world and is now in production as a major live action feature film.
Combining action, adventure, comedy and great character interaction, this is a unique tale of mental wit, Samurai strength and the fight of good over evil and stylistically is unlike any other animated show on television.
Cartoon Network, the 24 hour, seven day a week, all-animation channel is available on localised feeds in nine languages on digital and analogue satellite, cable and DTT in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. It is operated by Turner Broadcasting System Europe Limited, an AOL Time Warner Company.
