Trilogy Rebooting Jay Jay the Jet Plane?

 If any of you have been catching up with reboots of your favorite kids programs from the past couple years, you know that one of the reboot for VeggieTales is designed by Trilogy Animation Group. However, Trilogy may have another famous face coming back up their sleeves.

It has recently been confirmed that a reboot of PBS' Jay Jay the Jet Plane is also currently in development. However, there is no release date or press release information about what to expect. All the source that we have right now is a concept art photo on the company's official website.

If any of you grew up with Jay Jay the Jet Plane, then you are all probably aware of this powerhouse preschool phenomena and its weird nightmare fuel-styled face designs. The original series combined CGI characters with live-action portrayers, a style which would later be used again for Team Umizoomi on Nick a decade later in 2010.

Luckilly, Trilogy will be doing its best to take the creepiness out of an innocent preschol show. The reboot as of now is titled The New World of Jay Jay the Jet Plane and will be given a 2D animation style, making it lest creepy and more easier on the eyes for both newcomers and longtime fans.

Jay Jay the Jet Plane is among one of the few toddler shows of yesteryear to be reborn to the digital technology stage. The recent slate of preschool reboots includes Adventures of Padington BearBlue's Clues & You!, The Clangers, Clifford the Big Red Dog, the upcoming live-action Dora the Explorer, Muppet Babies, Teletubbies, the upcoming Maggie and the Ferocious Beast Show reboot (2022/2033), the upcoming Thomas & Friends Season 25: All Engines Go! (bows on Cartoon Network in October) and The VeggieTales Show. Reboots of Angelina Ballerina and Barney & Friends have also been in production but since its 2015 greenlight have not premiered yet.

The reboot of Jay Jay will draw in a new generation and will give them visuals that are not terrifying and let them sleep well at night.

More details about this reboot are to be announced soon.
