TV, and in the United States on qubo, both on the ION Television digital subchannel and NBC's Saturday morning qubo lineup. The character is said to have been inspired by Jacob Richler, the author's youngest son. Every character in Jacob's family has the same name as their counterpart in the real Richler family. In September 2009 Tundra Books, the publisher of the Jacob Two-Two series, released a new fourth book titled Jacob Two-Two on the High Seas. Mordecai Richler had always planned to write new adventures and had started a fourth book before he died in 2001. With the full support of the Richler family, the new book was written by Canadian author Cary Fagan. Tundra will also re-release the previous three titles in the series with new art and covers by Toronto artist, Dušan Petričić. Jacob Two-Two on the High Seas is the prequel to the first three books with the family sailing back to Canada from England after Jacob's father writes an important novel.
