Betty Toons is a Colombian animated television series was produced by RCN Televisión in 2002, based on Fernando Gaitán's soap opera Yo soy Betty, la fea, retrofitting all the characters to make them children living in a primary school. After the great success of the transmission of this telenovela in 1999 until 2001, the idea of the production of the animated series by RCN Televisión came about. The series lasted a year on the air.[1]
The voice direction was done by Hernán Zajec and Maribel Echeverría. The musical direction was by Juancho Pulido and the logistics were in charge with Paula Arenas.
In the United States, Betty Toons aired on Telefutura from 2004–2008 in Spanish.[2]
The cartoon version recreates the era of the protagonists in childhood, when everyone attends the same school, including Beatriz Pinzón or Betty, Armando Mendoza, "La Peliteñida", Marcela Valencia, the teacher Gutierrez, who sometimes uses English words when he is talking.
