''Jelly Jamm'' is a 3D CG animated series aimed at young children aged 4-7. It focuses on the adventures of five friends, Bello, Goomo, Mina, Rita, and Ongo. These five friends live on the planet of Jammbo, the planet where all music in the universe originates. This makes music a major theme on the show: every episode includes a dance number, and there is music constantly playing in Jammbo (in fact, if the music ever stops, '''''time itself''''' freezes.)

It was co-created by David Cantolla, who also co-created ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocoyo}}'', and produced by Vodka and 737SHAKER CAPITAL, two Spanish companies based in Madrid and Segovia. It is, however, made for an English speaking audience. In the UK, it airs on Creator/CartoonNetwork's pre-K block "Cartoonito", and in Canada, it aired on [=TVOKids=]. Even more so, it ''also'' was created in conjunction with various other studios, including Bandai (yes, ''[[Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment THAT Bandai]]'')
