Tree Fu Tom is a British live-action/CGI children's television programme/program which has been shown on BBC and CBeebies in the UK and Universal Kids and NBC in the USA. It is set in a miniature magical countryside and village area (Treetopolis) on the top of a part of a trunk of a big tree in a British-type woodland, where the trunk turns horizontal and then vertical again. Its characters are mostly anthropomorphized arthropods (which are not to size scale with each other as in reality). The programme is aimed at boys of 4-6 year olds.
Theres a European Spanish dub of the series, which aired from June 27, 2013 to January 16, 2018 on Clan and on Canal Panda, the series still aired reruns after the dub ended on Clan, it is presumed that the series aired on the channel up until 2018, though that hasn't been confirmed, the series also aired in Latin America on Discovery Kids from March 1, 2013 and ended at an unknown date.
It is unknown what studio produced the dub, Iyuno SDI has been rumored to have produced the dub, but that hasn't been confirmed and for now is merely just a rumor, the now-defunct Big Picture has also been rumored to have produced the dub, though unlike Iyuno, there might be a chance that Big Picture produced the Castilian Spanish dub of Tree Fu Tom, as the company released the dub on DVD, and the company even filed a ICAA rating for the series, though there is a high chance that Big Picture only distributed the series on DVD and filed a ICAA rating for the series, as from what is known Big Picture wasn't a dubbing studio.
Like most dubs of Tree Fu Tom, the Castilian Spanish dub was based off the original show, and as such included all of the edits, name changes and censorship made to the original show, only the first 52 episodes have been known to be dubbed, it is unknown if the episode Tom´s Big Spell recieved a Castilian Spanish dub, all of the episodes dubbed were aired in the Spain, but only the first 26 episodes were aired in Netherlands.
Only the intro of the show has been found. DVDs released by Big Picture. The dub was lost until an unknown date, a Google Drive user named Alejandro uploaded DVD rips of the first 26 episodes. Only the intro and 17 episodes are found, in order to remove the clan screenbug, it is recommended to lend a tree fu tom dvd (must be in Castilian Spanish) from a library in a big Castilian Spanish city like madrid or barcelona, and rip these episodes. Seasons 3 to 5 are lost forever, until a new version of ClanDownloader´s xml releases (only up to Not So Fast). Only the first 2 seasons are released on DVD, but a box set containing both seasons is released in november 2014 as the title "Temporada 1", the April 2014 DVDs are for the first season but the August are for the second one.
Despite Spain arguably being the market where Tree Fu Tom is the most well-known outside the UK (alongside Brazil and Poland), part of the Castilian Spanish dub has been lost to time. The fifth and sixth episodes of the second season, the entirety of the third and fourth seasons have not resurfaced online in Castilian Spanish. It's rumored that it aired on Cartoon Network in Spain.
It has a meet and greet that uses the animated costume, not the live action Tom from the intro and the end scene!
UPDATE: Volume 4 DVD is purchased and ripped
DVD opening, note for the poor quality
2ND UPDATE: DVD opening now live
