(also listed as DreamWorks Trolls: TrollsTopia) is an American animated television series based upon the events of the film Trolls World Tour. It takes over from Trolls: The Beat Goes On! as the main support serial series, being the second TV series overall in the "DreamWorks Trolls" franchise. Produced by DreamWorks Animation and Atomic Cartoons, it aired from November 19, 2020 to August 11, 2022 on Hulu and Peacock, with a web mini-series titled What They Got Right and a series of Trolls Scrapbook Stories shorts.
The series' art style is the same as Trolls: The Beat Goes On! with a different animation style and improvements. Many of the Trolls from previous 2D animations return in this series, as do their voice actors, including minor or background characters.
Pre-premiere
was formerly scheduled for April 15, 2020, to be released on the Peacock streaming app and Hulu. The announcement came alongside those for DreamWorks films The Croods: A New Age and The Boss Baby: Family Business, other DreamWorks and Universal-related properties such as Cleopatra in Space, Where's Waldo?, The Mighty Ones and Madagascar: A Little Wild, and new episodes of Curious George.
In March 2020, due to the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic was having on the entertainment industry, the Peacock service announced that it would push back the release of all original shows, including Trolls: TrollsTopia, until 2021. Despite this, the series was later set to premiere on both Hulu and Peacock on November 19, 2020, with an official trailer of the series released on November 5, 2020.
The first screenshot was seen in the TV Kids magazine's October 2020 issue. Universal had signed a long-term agreement with Sky, with Trolls: TrollsTopia being confirmed to be among the shows included in the contract, which would see customers in Ireland and the UK getting to see the shows on the aforementioned platform.
In that same month, a storyboard of an episode titled "Dinner with Dante" (which later premiered as "My Dinner with Dante") was leaked onto Tumblr, but was removed shortly afterwards. It revolved around a Classical Troll named Dante Crescendo. At the same time, the series' animatic opening credits sequence was leaked. Jim Mortensen confirmed that the leaks were stolen. He thanked fans for their patience in regards to the stolen material, which had been shared regardless of its origins.
Megan Hilty noted that the voice acting was still going on during the Covid-19 lockdown and that things progressed via Zoom.
TrollsTopia is a new original based off the famous Trolls franchise following Poppy, Branch and other enchanting characters from the feature film Trolls World Tour.
After the events of Trolls World Tour, Poppy invites delegates from all Troll Tribes to live in Troll Forest to unite in Pop Village and live in harmony. This is an experiment by Poppy called "TrollsTopia" and seeks to unite the scattered Trolls.
Trolls: TrollsTopia! is the next chapter in the Trolls' hair-raising adventures. During the Trolls sequel, Trolls: World Tour, everything gets turned on their hair when Poppy learns there are five other musically themed Trolls tribes scattered throughout the forest. Now, armed with her endless positivity she decides to bring delegates from the Country Western, Classical, Funk, Techno and Hard Rock tribes to live together in her village, to form a new Trolls city and promote friendship and harmony in a grand experiment she calls... TrollsTopia!
The delegates from other villages won't be the kings and queens we met in Trolls World Tour - those characters will remain in their respective villages and continue to function as the leaders of their tribes. Instead, we're going to meet new, original characters that represent the fun features of their home tribes.
The series focuses on the trial and error of TrollsTopia and the everyday events of the Trolls residing in the city. It covers the hurdles that face as each Tribe learns to get along with the other ones.
Most stories take place in TrollsTopia as a result. The second season of Trolls: The Beat Goes On! was confirmed to take place 1 month after the events of Trolls. Meanwhile, Trolls: TrollsTopia takes place 1 year after Trolls, according to "The Makeunder". In "Cloud Control", Cloud Guy also notes that it's his and Branch's "annoyversary" since the day he began to annoy Branch, indicating that it's been a year since Cloud Guy begun to annoy Branch. According to "Girls' Night", TrollsTopia has already been set up for "months", which would put Trolls World Tour itself at happening in less than a year after Trolls.
However, the Season 3 episode "Disgruntle Weeds" was the first episode that took the story out of TrollsTopia and into the Country Trolls domain to return the Disgruntle Weeds to Grumble Gulch. Despite Lonesome Flats being mentioned in the episode, it does not appear.
Almost all character development is related to a conflict of cultural-based nature and is cause by the habits of that Tribe prior to said Troll coming to be part of TrollsTopia. As such, a lot of the stories are how TrollsTopia is changing its residents for the better, how they resist that change or accept it and adapt as a response to both TrollsTopia itself and to each other.
As a result of this, the series has a number of subplots, some of which were carried on from Trolls: The Beat Goes On! but has expanded to take in the new characters introduced within the series. Like with Trolls: The Beat Goes On! before it, a result of the the continued development of characters a number of common story types are often linked to certain Trolls, and form the basis of the episodic plots.
Often, Trolls from the same Tribe have similar subplots and arcs to each other, but they tend to go in different directions. The plots are both positive and negative at each Tribe's goals. Note that in many cases, the plots can swing both for and against the Tribes approach or even show other Trolls sampling another Tribes' cultures.
The series continues on from where Trolls: The Beat Goes On! left off. Many of the older characters return, and references are constantly made back to the older series as well as Trolls World Tour. Despite the references to past 2D and 3D animation, the show is not considered canon to 3D media.
