Pocoyo (Pocoyó in Spanish and stylised as POCOYO) is an animated interactive preschool comedy television series created by David Cantolla, Luis Gallego, and Guillermo García Carsí, and is produced by the Spanish animation company Zinkia Entertainment, with the first two series were co-productions with Granada Kids, and the first series was a co-production of Cosgrove Hall Films, both in the United Kingdom.

Four series have been produced, each consisting of 52 seven-minute episodes.^[1] English actor and comedian Stephen Fry narrates the English-language version^[2]^[3] of the first two series of the show, while Stephen Hughes narrates the third series, called Let's Go Pocoyo, and the fourth series. José María del Río narrates the Castilian Spanish version of the show. In 2009, a new spin-off show called Pocoyo World was created.

On July 2022, the fifth series has been greenlit to commemorate the show's 20th anniversary which was supposed to release in mid-2023, but was delayed for a 2024 release. It will feature significant changes for the characters designs and will feature more new characters such as Pocoyo's little sister, Pocoyina.^[4] Similar to the series 4 episode "Dragon Island", five of the episodes will be mixed into live action.^[5]

In 2023, the franchise was acquired by Animaj.^[6] As then, the series was renewed for a sixth series around 2025 or 2026. A third feature film was announced and would be releasing around 2027 or 2028.
