The episodes “mark a strategic evolution” of the PEPPA PIG brand, said Hasbro, which owns the PEPPA PIG brand. Season 11 features a “refreshed tone, more vibrant visual style, and new character dynamics” to better reflect the lives of its young viewers.
The season has a new introduction with baby Evie and updated homes in the show with things like TVs and smartphones.
The Guardian reported that Evie was given the full royal treatment. She was born at the Lindo Wing of St. Mary’s hospital, London, where Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, had her royal children. She was named after Mummy Pig’s great aunt Evie.
“We’ve got SO many ideas for names. Too many, frankly!” Mummy Pig said.
In May, a video by the official PEPPA PIG Instagram showed a town crier ringing a bell and reading a royal-inspired pink scroll outside the hospital announcing Evie’s birth. Two pink-vested attendants set out a pink plaque in Evie’s honor, and many onlookers clapped and cheered.
With PEPPA PIG broadcasts in over 180 world territories and 40 million YouTube subscribers, it’s safe to say that Evie is now a U.K. national treasure.
Hasbro partnered with Walmart to introduce a line of toys with baby Evie. The lineup includes Peppa’s Big Family House featuring Baby Evie, an interactive Baby Evie doll, a Family of Five figure set and Peppa’s Big Family Car with figures and accessories, The Hollywood Reporter said.
The Family of Five set includes Baby Evie in a sling on Mummy Pig. Each new toy includes a modification or accessories just for Evie.
The whole world is celebrating Evie’s birth, and Hasbro is sure to milk it for all it’s worth.
