The Beverly Hills Chihuahua series is a trilogy of films made by Disney that from 2008 to 2012. The series revolves around the main character Papi, a Chihuahua who goes on various adventures with his companions throughout the film series.

TV Series

After finishing Beverly Hills Chihuahua 3: Viva la Fiesta!, plans for an animated TV adaptation was in the works by Tad Stones with Taiwanese animation studio Hong Ying Animation and Bento Box Entertainment titled Beverly Hills Chihuahuas, with a pilot made to pitch to Disney Junior in 2012.[1] The network ended up passing on the series due to poor timing.

The only information on the series that was available for awhile was some concept art of the characters Papi, Rosario, and Esperanza that was posted on Genevieve Tsai's blog in 2014 where she discussed her involvement on the show.[2]

Availability

On November 30th, 2020 YouTuber 20th Century P.A.C. discovered the pilot on Hong Ying Animation's website and uploaded a minute long clip of it onto his channel, only to upload the entire pilot a month later.
