Monsieur Crocodile
Animated series | 2025
Streaming on Paramount+ starting July 3
Youth comedy-adventure | Episodes roughly 10–11 minutes
Created by Joann Sfar, based on Monsieur Crocodile a beaucoup faim
From the graphic novel published by Gallimard
The series builds on the premise of the book Monsieur Crocodile a beaucoup faim, published by Gallimard, to translate it into a kid-friendly, short-form format. Mr. Crocodile appears as a reptile impressive in size with sharp teeth, but above all naive, devoted to Daisy and often baffled by human habits.
Daisy, eight, lives with her mother and tags along with her new friend as they discover daily life. The series centers on simple, everyday situations: figuring out the rules of the city, carving out a place among humans, learning to live with others, and turning misunderstandings into adventures.
With its short format and lighthearted humor, Mr. Crocodile is aimed primarily at a young audience. The series could appeal to families looking for an accessible animated program for children, anchored by a duo whose friendship, curiosity and lessons about life drive the action.
In France, Mr. Crocodile has also been added to France Télévisions’ youth lineup, with broadcasts on Okoo and France 5. Its arrival on Paramount+ thus opens another streaming window for this animated series adapted from a French children’s book.
