It follows six doll friends and their pets in the whimsical world of Lalaloopsy Land, celebrating friendship, creativity, and collaboration through stories with all-new original music.[1](https://www.netflix.com/title/80095649) The series is an updated version of the earlier [Nick Jr.](https://www.edgepedia.org/nick-jr) series *Lalaloopsy* (2013–2015) and introduced the new character Storm E. Sky.[2](https://tvtango.com/series/were_lalaloopsy)\n\n| Key fact | Detail |\n|---|---|\n| Premiere | January 10, 2017, as a Netflix original[3](https://usa.newonnetflix.info/info/80095649) |\n| Episodes | Netflix lists 13 episodes of 22 minutes, each pairing two segments; some databases count 26 episodes[1](https://www.netflix.com/title/80095649) • [4](https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/lalaloopsy/season-1) |\n| Production | MGA Entertainment and Splash Entertainment[3](https://usa.newonnetflix.info/info/80095649) |\n| Director / composer | Andrew Young (director); Daniel Ingram (composer)[5](https://pro.imdb.com/title/tt6495788/) |\n| Main cast | Kazumi Evans (Jewel Sparkles), Mariee Devereux (Storm E.

Jewel Sparkles is a fashionable princess and dream-chaser with a pet cat; Storm E. Sky, a guitar-strumming newcomer seen as a rebel who is misunderstood, has a cat named Cool Cat; Crumbs Sugar Cookie bakes while living by her recipe and keeps a mouse; Spot Splatter Splash sees the world in colorful, abstract terms as an artist and has a zebra; Rosy Bumps 'N' Bruises, a nurturing nurse, rushes to help others with hugs and owns a bear; and Dot Starlight, a scientist sewn from an astronaut's spacesuit, keeps a bird.[2](https://tvtango.com/series/were_lalaloopsy)\n\n**Storm E. Sky** drives much of the first season's storytelling. The opening episodes establish her arrival in Lalaloopsy Land with a busted camper; she had only intended to pass through, but is stuck and desperate to leave, and Jewel is eager to see her go.[7](https://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/were-lalaloopsy/episodes-season-1/1030547387/) Later episodes follow the group learning to make room for a misunderstood newcomer, with Spot trying to help Storm E. and Jewel get along.[1](https://www.netflix.com/title/80095649) Each 22-minute Netflix episode pairs two segments, such as \"Storm E Sky's Ahead / Storm E Rolls In\" and \"Crumbs' Perfect Spoon / Rosy Needs a Hug,\" in which the dolls solve problems through creativity, often creating messes before successes.[1](https://www.netflix.com/title/80095649) • [6](https://www.commonsensemedia.org/tv-reviews/were-lalaloopsy)\n\n## Development and announcement\n\nNetflix announced the series on January 28, 2016 as one of three new original kids' series, alongside *The Greenhouse* and *Stretch Armstrong*.

Sky was added.[2](https://tvtango.com/series/were_lalaloopsy)\n\n## Reception and availability\n\nCommon Sense Media rated the series suitable for ages 5 and up, highlighting its themes of friendship, kindness, and appreciating one's own uniqueness, while noting that the characters are tied to a marketing line of toys and related products.
