Gloob (Portuguese pronunciation: "Glubi"), also known as Mundo Gloob, is a Brazilian pay television children's channel that was launched on 15 June 2012, aimed at children 6 to 12 years old.[1] Owned, operated and part of Canais Globo,[2] a television broadcast network, and subsidiary of Grupo Globo. Its name is an anagram of the word 'Globo', as in 'O Globo', reversing the letter "O" before the "B".

It airs action, adventure, humor (especially slapstick) and music-based shows, but regional, live-action content is the currently focused. Under local live action, the channel is also always searching for mystery-detective shows in the vein of Gloob's long-running live-action series, Detetives do Prédio Azul (Blue Building Detectives), as well as shows like the kidsnet's first original sitcom Bugados (internationally titled Game Crashers). Gloob's pipeline, though, is essentially covered until 2024, which means the team is on the hunt for series that will complement a 2024-2025 timeline.[3] A sister channel, Gloobinho, targets preschoolers.
