"It is almost time to say goodbye to 2014 and ring in 2015...and the partying-est lemur of all, King Julien, is here to help celebrate," says Netflix.

"And if you are anything like King Julien and can't wait to get the party started, he's created a totally awesome New Year's Eve countdown video to enjoy anytime, anywhere."

The video shows Julien and all his party people getting down as they ring in the new year.

The clip is in celebration of "All Hail King Julien," the Netflix spin-off of DreamWorks "Madagascar" where Julien's character first made his appearance.

"The show takes place before the Madagascar movies, with King Julien ruling the lemurs after his scheming uncle leaves him the throne," according to News For Shoppers.

"Now the party-loving lemur must take on the challenges of leading his kingdom while dealing with the predatory fossa and other challenges ahead."

One of Netflix's most successful endeavors is bound to have children and parents laughing all over again just as they did while watching "Madagascar."
