[2] Since 2010, De club van Sinterklaas continues as a YouTube channel and a film series.

[3] It became the only Sinterklaas-related children's programme to be ever nominated for a Gouden Stuiver, where it lost out to Het Huis Anubis.

[4] In the wake of the zwartepietendiscussie, the original series was disregarded by its right holders RTL Nederland due to the use of black face paint on white actors and the traditional depiction of Zwarte Piet.

[5][6] The series follows a group of Zwarte Pieten on their misadventures on their yearly journey to the Netherlands.

However, in the early 2010s, in the wake of the zwartepietendiscussie, De club van Sinterklaas became one of the first Dutch television series to stop this practice and introduced the 'soot' version of the character in 2017.
