NAPLES, Fla., Sept. 28 /
Christian Newswire/ -- Sky Angel's Video on Demand continues to add inspiring children's programming that now includes the first two seasons of Friends and Heroes, an award-winning animated TV series featuring two first century teenagers, Macky and Portia. Each episode weaves in stories from both Old and New Testaments of the Bible. As children watch the exciting escapades, they come to understand that the Bible has a great deal to offer when trying to decide what is right and what to do in today's world.
Based in a fascinating and turbulent period of history during the height of the Roman Empire (69-71 AD), Friends and Heroes places Bible stories in a vivid historical context and uses animated adventure stories to make learning about God and the Bible fun. Each season features 13 episodes and can be found on VOD > Kids and Teens > Sky Angel Kids. Episodes are only 99 cents each. Visit

We know that families will enjoy watching both seasons of Friends and Heroes and are delighted to offer them through VOD," says Darren Moorman, VP On-Demand Programming.
"We are delighted that Sky Angel VOD is making Series 1 and 2 of Friends and Heroes available to our many fans throughout the USA," said David Dorricott, Executive Producer.
