Fiona the baby hippo is getting her own Facebook Live show

2017 has been a bummer, but it's not all bad — soon we'll have Fiona TV. Everyone's favorite delightfully chubby baby hippo is getting her own Facebook Live series, which premieres on Aug. 29, Today reports.

Fiona was born six weeks premature earlier this year. She quickly became a viral star on the Cincinnati Zoo's social media accounts.

The first episode of The Fiona Show "will feature never-before-seen footage of Fiona's birth," Today adds. Watch a trailer for the series below. Jeva Lange
