Plot Synopsis

Narrated by executive producer Patton Oswalt, PENGUIN TOWN is an eight-episode documentary series that chronicles an eclectic group of endangered penguins that flock together to find mates, raise families and mix with the locals in a picturesque South African town. Forget ice and snow, this rowdy colony of African penguins are hitting the sun-drenched beaches and breaking all the rules. Every summer, these tuxedoed birds vie for prime real estate on the sandy shores of Simon's Town, south of Cape Town, and stir things up. While humans apply sun block and wax their surfboards, these endangered little guys, who have adapted to heat and can travel long distances, are causing traffic jams in the streets and bringing mayhem to this tropical paradise. Their mission: find a mate, make babies and not go extinct! Filled with boisterous shenanigans and loads of adorable penguins -- from the troublemaking "Car Park Gang" to the sweet and cuddly newlyweds Mr. & Mrs C. The entire eight-episode series dropped on Wednesday, June 16, 2021 on Netflix.
