The Bravest Knight animated series is an excellent presentation of new fairy tales that teach young children important lessons. It expands creatively from the Brothers Grimm, who created children’s fairytale stories more than 200 years ago with similar lessons.
From the creator Daniel Errico, the animated series reintroduces imaginative, magical creatures through the storytelling lens of a knight telling story lessons to his future knight daughter.
The voice cast includes T.R. Knight, Wilson Cruz, Bobby Moynihan, Millie Davis, Christine Baranski, Margaret Cho, Steven Weber, Alan Cumming, Tan France, Jane Lynch, Alyssa Milano, Emily Hampshire, and Teri Polo.
The series was directed by Shabnam Rezaei and produced by Big Bad Boo Studios.
Here is the official synopsis:
Cedric, a pumpkin farmer turned knight, has embarked on many quests—from saving towns to defeating monsters. Now he’s started a new chapter with his prince charming and their daughter Nia, who aspires to become a knight just like him. Cedric has battled trolls, witches, and even dragons…but his greatest challenge yet? Teaching Nia how to navigate the path to knighthood while being true to one’s self.
