Amazon Prime Video today announced Friday, September 21 will be the global premiere date for the anticipated animated kids series Pete the Cat. Based on the best-selling children's books, Pete the Cat is a fun, musically driven series about exploring your world and trying new things, while being smart, accepting, and optimistic. Whether you're making new friends or facing all of life's ups and downs, Pete always finds a way to put a groovy spin on things.

In season one of Pete the Cat, the show highlights themes of self-discovery. Pete stays cool as he tries new things, sets out for picture day, writes his first song, learns to surf and even has his first performance for his band. Scored with an upbeat, groovy soundtrack, Pete the Cat encourages children to be curious, creative, and positive while rockin' to their own beat.
