A 13-year-old girl named Erinand her sidekick robot, Remo, are the new heroes for a group that usually shuns cartoon chaos – young girls.

They are the stars of a new TV feature called “Miguzi” on Cartoon Network. It is a two-hour block of four different shows starting at 5 p.m.

“Miguzi” debuted just six week ago but has already doubled the number of girls 6-11 years old watching the channel at that hour.

Miguzi replaced the “Toonami” cartoon block, which shifted to Saturday nights.

“Toonami was a destination that did what it was set up to do – attract boys 9-14 years old,” says Bob Higgins, Cartoon Network’s senior VP of programming and development.

“Toonami did that so well that girls were turning us off from 5 to 7 p.m., and the question came up: How [do we] fix that?

“We decided to create a new block that was much more girl-friendly . . . and a much more gender-balanced place for high-adventure fun rather than hard-core fisticuffs action.”

The stars of Miguzi are the CGI-created Erin and Remo, who watch the shows with their pals in an abandoned spaceship at the bottom of the ocean. They’re taken to the spaceship by The Leviathan, a giant sea monster.

“We’re not pushing the boys away,” says Higgins. “The girls are watching for the fun, squishy aliens.”
