Why the viral Sylvanian Drama soap operas have gone quiet online
The social media account Sylvanian Drama, which has frequently gone viral for its darkly comedic skits featuring small, anthropomorphic animal toys, mysteriously went quiet this year after it landed in legal hot water with the toys' maker. Epoch, the Japanese company behind the toys, sued the account's creator earlier this year, claiming that she has been 'doubling her efforts to exploit Epoch's copyrights and trademarks for her own commercial gain' despite the company's attempts to work the issue out amicably. Sylvanian Families, also known as Calico Critters in the United States and Canada, are felt dolls in the shape of cute, anthropomorphized animals. They were first released in Japan in 1985. The creatures range from bunnies and kittens to squirrels and more, all with wide, black eyes and tiny clothing. Online, Irish content creator Thea Von Engelbrechten has taken the adorable creatures and given them backstories with mature themes, putting them in real-world scenarios that aren't as innocent or family-friendly as the dolls themselves appear to be. Her Sylvanian Drama page has 2.5 million followers on TikTok and 1 million on Instagram. The videos, all of which feature Calico Critters, often rack up millions of views each. In these soap opera-style clips, the critters might be getting drunk, doing drugs, committing violence or doing other unsavory things. Epoch's lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on April 7, initially flew under the radar but drew attention online last week when some outlets reported on the situation after noticing months of silence from the account. The Irish Independent was the first to report the lawsuit. The company accused Von Engelbrechten of copyright infringement, trademark infringement and unfair competition. It stated that she has been prominently featuring Calico Critters products in videos without permission, including for commercial purposes by advertising for other brands' goods and services. The lawsuit added that she also uses a copyrighted image as Sylvanian Drama's social media profile picture. Von Engelbrechten declined to comment. Attorneys for Epoch did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The lawsuit underscores the potential tensions that can arise when creators use branded materials as drivers of their content. Early gaming creators faced similar legal pushback when using copyrighted games and characters in their videos, for example. The case against Sylvanian Drama is the latest to highlight how the creator economy straddles the line between user-generated content and copyright protections. Von Engelbrechten's account has become so popular in recent years that some on the internet have begun to associate the toys with the Sylvanian Drama account more than the official Sylvanian Families or Calico Critters brands. In its lawsuit, Epoch wrote that Von Engelbrechten has caused 'irreparable injury to Epoch's goodwill and reputation,' noting that the brand was originally intended to engage children. Von Engelbrechten began posting Sylvanian Drama videos in 2021, when she was a 19-year-old multimedia student at Dublin City University. She told The Tab in a 2023 interview that her videos were meant to parody shows like 'Gossip Girl' and 'Pretty Little Liars.' 'I'm always surprised that I'm not already canceled for the stuff that I do,' she said. 'I don't mean any harm and also … a lot of the issues that I joke about are problems in my own life. There's a lot of stuff about weight and dieting and people struggling with that, and that's all just me joking about myself. So I'm not making fun of anyone.' The account hasn't posted on any of its platforms since January. Its latest video was a paid partnership promoting 'Squid Game' shortly after the release of the hit Netflix show's second season. (The lawsuit noted that Sylvanian Drama has similarly advertised for the likes of Kate Spade, Sephora, Burberry, Hilton and Taco Bell.) Epoch claimed in its complaint that TikTok had previously removed allegedly infringing videos from its platform after the company served a Digital Millennium Copyright Act notice in October 2023. But because it was not able to work out a permanent resolution with Von Engelbrechten, Epoch wrote, it 'had no choice but to file this lawsuit' this year. The company, which demanded a jury trial, sought an order declaring that Von Engelbrechten infringed its copyrights, as well as an order prohibiting her from infringing any copyrights in the future. It also asked for damages of up to $150,000 for each copyrighted work infringed, plus all profits made by Von Engelbrechten as a result of the alleged infringement. According to a court document this month, however, Epoch and Von Engelbrechten are now 'actively engaged in settlement discussions' and planning to submit a joint letter with a proposed plan to move forward. Von Engelbrechten has until Aug. 8 to respond to the lawsuit, with the initial pretrial conference slated for Aug. 14.

"So acting is scarier for me, but I love it. "On tour I like to have a set playlist of songs that I'll listen to before going on stage - I love El Alfa, Rem and Latto."

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CHARLI XCX is going all out for her Sicilian wedding later this year, but she kept her first wedding to The 1975 drummer George Daniel far more Brat. Insiders told The Sun that the pair headed from Hackney Town Hall where they tied the knot, to nearby Italian restaurant Dalla, before inviting their 20 guests to join them for a massive night out at Ellie's bar in Dalston. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 9 Charli XCX and her husband George Daniel enjoyed a cigarette outside their wedding reception at eaterie Dalla Credit: Click News and Media 9 Charli was seen heading outside with a drink Credit: Click News and Media 9 She and George later changed into party outfits for their bash at a bar Credit: Click News and Media 9 They joined pals at Dalston bar Ellie's Credit: Click News and Media And to get into the party mood, Charli swapped out of her £3,300 Vivienne Westwood Nova Cora mini dress into another white outfit - just in case she spilt an £8 martini down it. 'Charli's wedding reception was the epitome of Brat,' a source revealed. 'Her and George wanted to keep it very cool, so they shunned cars and walked down Hackney High Street to get to Dalla. 'The restaurant had closed for them and they had a massive family style meal with loads of pasta and champagne. 'People walking past were stunned when they saw Charli and George having a cheeky pre-dinner cigarette outside. 'Charli and Daniel then went to a nearby hotel to get changed before they went to Ellie's for a party.' HIP HAUNT Ellie's, which opened back in May, is fast making a name for itself as one of east London's trendiest haunts. It specialises in £8 martinis and saw Myles Smith shooting his GQ Magazine cover there earlier this year. Charli and George arrived hand-in-hand to get the party started, with more guests arriving at the door as the night went on. 'To get in you just had to walk up to the front and say 'Charli,'' the marital mole explained. Charli XCX fans say X-rated Grammys performance is 'best in show's history' - but critics blast the star's 'lip-syncing' 'Once inside Charli and George had laid on a free bar and there were trays of cigarettes lying around for the smokers. 'There was a 'no social media policy' so no one posted any of the pictures from the reception online. 'It went on until around 4am when everyone crashed out and went home.' The Sun first revealed back in 2023 that drummer George had proposed to Charli. 9 The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other after saying their vows Credit: Click News and Media 9 The pair headed back inside after finishing their cigs Credit: Click News and Media 9 Charli will have a second wedding in Sicily Credit: Click News and Media In February last year, our sources revealed the pair had flown to Italy to scout out locations for their big day - and earlier this month one insider told us the pair had plumped for Sicily. SECOND CEREMONY We understand Charlie and George will fly out later this year for an epic celebration with their family and friends. 'This was the formal wedding and the big event is happening in a few months,' our source explained. 'Charli and George had the most perfect day in London. It was everything they wanted it to be, relaxed, informal and fun. 'Their wedding in Sicily is the big one and they can't wait for everyone to fly out there and be with them.' Charli opened up about their wedding plans last year and said their plan was to throw a massive bash. She said: 'We're both very chill and we kind of just want to have a party. 'Neither of us are particularly formal about marriage or care about the formalities of the ceremony or whatever. 'We just want to be together forever and have a party with our friends.' 9 The pair held hands as they made their way to the bash, which went on til 4am Credit: Click News and Media
