N°73 KABOUTER PLOP - HET SPOOK


A ghost is pretty scary but there are also a few funny ghostly song such as this one. Kabouter Plop is a creation by studio100 ang this production studio is famous in Belgium and The Netherlands since they put their shoulders under almost every act if it's related to children.

Studio 100 started of as a gag when in 1989, Gert Verhulst started to announce children's tv series with a talking  toy dog named Samson next to his seat. The gag worked well and together with Hans Bourlon and Danny Verbist (the voice of Samson), Gert they wrote stories for the childrens series 'Samson en Gert'. In 1996 the studio got a definate liftoff when they started of the 'Kabouter Plop' (translated ad Gnome Plop) series for a commercial tv network. Gert and Hans never looked back. Danny on the other hand quit as Samson's voice in 2005 and he'd later leave Studio100 as well.

Apart from the two shows mentioned they'd also created the girls band K3, the adventure series The House of Anubis, the children's series Piet Piraat, Mega Mindy, Amika and Bumba. Most of their products were exported throughout the world. Also they bought the right to series such as Pipi Longstockings and Wicki the Viking. 

They'd not only stick to television but also start to produce severall musicals and movies using their own brands as a base. The K3 girls played the main role in the Three Little Pigs musical for instance. Also the Pinokkio musical was adapted to the Flemish taste and Kabouter Plop must have about four movies running at the moment.

Finally they started to aim for an even broader audience so Studio100 owns 5 amusement parks at the moment. Plopsa Land in De Panne is probably the best known.

Well enjoy this Plopsong and my dear Ploppertjes I'll have a hell of a job to find a song about a Gnome ....
