The franchise first arrived on the platform with Ask the StoryBots, an animated series that followed a colorful team of five friends – Beep, Boop, Bing, Bang and Bo – in the world beneath viewers’ TV screens as they travel the world and answer children’s most pressing questions, including how ears hear and why they can’t eat dessert all of the time.
