Grand Theft Auto VI’s fictional WEAZEL channel has a Nov. 19 broadcast listed for MACCA & FRIENDS, an animated series about Macca the Gator and his wetland friends across Leonida. A first look from DiscussingFilm offers a 30-second preview of Macca, a pink gator in purple sunglasses, with a talking Sun, Pinchy the crab landlord, and a beefed-up police officer among the animal cast.

The teaser does not establish whether players can watch a full episode in-game or only a shorter segment. Its advertised broadcast date also matches GTA VI’s scheduled Nov. 19 launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

WEAZEL’s fictional lineup also includes a novela and The Johnsons, another animated series. Kinda Funny has reported that Rockstar hired an animation studio to create in-game programs, apparently including MACCA & FRIENDS.

Rockstar has used fictional entertainment in earlier games too, including stand-up sets in GTA V and black-and-white films in Red Dead Redemption 2.
