Elliott from Earth (Season 1)

Elliott from Earth (2021) is an animated comedy series you can watch online on iFILM. It kicks off with a stray rock: Elliott's mum Frankie picks up a strange stone, and in a blink the two of them are flung across the universe to Centrium, a sprawling cosmic crossroads packed with aliens from corners of the galaxy nobody's ever charted.

Stranded and very much out of place, Elliott and Frankie have to build a life on the fly while figuring out who pulled them here and why. Their odd little crew includes Mo — the only other being from Earth, except he's not a person but an actual dinosaur, just as clueless about how he landed in Centrium as they are.

This British-French show from directors Rhys Byfield and Mikey Please runs on a soft, gently absurd sense of humour and a wild bench of invented species, with none of the loud, hyperactive edge of most kids' cartoons. It's an easy pick for family viewing and anyone who loves cozy sci-fi about finding home far from home. Stream Elliott from Earth online on iFILM.
