Mike Snider | USA TODAY

Classic comic character 'Richie Rich' returns this Saturday -- on Netflix.

This new half-hour kids' sitcom lands on Netflix with the first ten episodes available on Saturday. A total of 21 episodes are planned this year.

Jake Brennan (Dark Skies) stars as the fabulously rich kid who made his fortune by inventing new green technology and selling it for a trillion dollars.

Richie owns a mansion where he lives with his father Cliff (Kiff VandenHeuvel), sister Harper (Lauren Taylor) and friends Murray (Joshua Carlon) and Darcy (Jenna Ortega).

Executive producers on the show include Brian Robbins, co-founder and CEO of AwesomenessTV and Tim Pollock and Jeff Hodsden, who were writers on The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and The Suite Life on Deck.

Following his success, he moves his father, Cliff, and his sister, Harper, into his newly built mansion that stretches across sixteen glorious acres. He now drives a custom mini-Lamborghini across his massive mansion and uses his wealth to pack as much fun into every day as possible.
