Netflix Orders "Green Eggs and Ham" - Thirteen Episodes For The Whole Fam

In 2018 This Classic Book - Comes to TV with a Whole New Look

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., April 29, 2015 -- Issued from Netflix headquarters. Delivered straight to all reporters.

We'd love to share some happy news based on the rhymes of Dr. Seuss. Green Eggs and Ham will become a show and you're among the first to know.

In this richly animated production, a 13-episode introduction, standoffish inventor (Guy, by name) and Sam-I-Am of worldwide fame, embark on a cross-country trip that tests the limits of their friendship. As they learn to try new things, they find out what adventure brings. Of course they also get to eat that famous green and tasty treat!

Cindy Holland, VP of Original Content for Netflix threw her quote into the mix: "We think this will be a hit Green Eggs and Ham is a perfect fit for our growing slate of amazing stories available exclusively in all Netflix territories. You can stream it on a phone. You can stream it on your own. You can stream it on TV. You can stream it globally."
