Angry Birds Toons is a Finnish CGI animated TV series based on Rovio's video game franchise of the same name. This animated series follows the adventures of the birds as they guard their eggs against the piggies who want to steal them for their king to eat, as well as adventures from within each group. Episodes have been released weekly.

There was an introductory episode called "Meet the Flock" in March 2013, which presented the names of the birds. The green pigs are identified by their role such as Corporal Pig, King Pig, or Chef Pig, with Minion Pig allocated to unnamed pigs. Dialogue is generally limited to vocalizations and sound effects similar to the game.

As of September 2013, Angry Birds Toons episodes have been viewed more than one billion times. By July 2014, Angry Birds Toons episodes had been viewed over three billion times and by December 2014, episodes had been viewed four billion times.

Birds

Red is the leader of the flock. He is usually very bossy and mainly focuses on protecting the Eggs from being captured by the Pigs.

Chuck is a yellow triangular-shaped bird who can move incredibly fast. He is usually seen boasting about himself and how athletic he is, yet he isn't really the smartest Bird in the flock. He enjoys practicing martial arts.

Bomb is a black bird with a "fuse" on top of his head who has the ability to explode, albeit without actually disappearing, at will. Bomb is usually laid back yet still having the will to defend the Eggs.

The Blues are a trio of blue birds who are mischievous and fun-loving, pulling pranks on both the Pigs and the Birds. Their names are Jim, Jake, and Jay.

Matilda is a white female bird with rosy cheeks that serves as the Mother Hen of the group. She loves nature and always seeks peaceful solutions to problems, but gets angry when things get worse. She enjoys cooking and gardening.

Terence is a large red bird with a single expression. He prefers to be silent, and stares down his opponents.

Bubbles is an orange bird that usually appears in the series' Halloween-themed episodes. Like The Blues, he is mischievous and fun-loving. He especially loves candy.

Pigs

Corporal Pig is a militaristic pig who wears a helmet with an ace of spades playing card. He reveres King Pig and likes to bully others and order the minion pigs around. According to his Angry Birds profile, he had accidentally glued his tin helmet to his scalp.

King Pig is a large pig with a crown on his head. He is lazy and loves junk food, and acts like a baby sometimes.

Foreman Pig is a pig with a bright orange mustache who is in charge of the construction projects.

Chef Pig is a pig with a chef hat and moustache who cooks for the King and devises many schemes.

Minion Pigs are the pigs who dutifully serve the King, although they would prefer to just roll around in the mud.
