NEW SERIES
INSPECTOR GADGET (26 x 22 minutes) - CANADIAN PREMIERE
Premieres: Mondays at 6 p.m. ET/PT beginning September 7.
Everyone's favourite bionic policeman returns! In this new CGI series,
INSPECTOR GADGET battles the evil Dr. Claw with all new gadgets - and all new gadget-related chaos! But our loveable, bumbling, accidentally-destructive Inspector's not alone in the fight to take down MAD. His ever trusty police-dog, Brain, is still by his side; and he's getting extra crime fighting help from his new partner: Inspector-in-training Penny! It's a MAD-cap romp as our heroic trio chases crime all over the globe (and tries to keep Gadget's collateral damage to a minimum). From the streets of Paris to the rainforests of Brazil, from the lost city of
ATLANTIS to the moon, there's nowhere they won't go to get their man! And with MAD more powerful than ever with the arrival of Dr. Claw's evil-genius (and totally crush-worthy) nephew - Penny and Brain will need to use every ounce of their training to keep the world safe from Dr. Claw... and Gadget!
GET ACE (52 x 15 minutes) - CANADIAN PREMIERE
Premieres: Tuesdays at 6 p.m. ET/PT beginning September 8
Think Ace McDougal is just your average, everyday nerdy school kid? Well he was, until he happened to be in the wrong dentist's chair at the wrong time and accidentally said the wrong secret codeword... next thing he knew he'd been fitted with a set of top secret, ultra high-tech experimental braces. From that moment on he's catapulted - teeth-first - into one hair-raising adventure after another! Now he's the kid proving you're never too nerdy to be cool! Get Ace is the highest rated children's animated show in the history of Australian network TEN's ELEVEN's commissions. In France, it has become a fan favourite as lead character Ace was voted 'favourite' hero by Boing! viewers.
ALVINNN!!! AND THE CHIPMUNKS (52 x 11 minutes) - CANADIAN PREMIERE
Premieres: Wednesdays at 6 p.m. ET/PT beginning September 9
The new animated series, ALVINNN!!! and The Chipmunks, created by Janice Karman, takes us on a roller coaster ride of music, laughter and stories geared to entertain The Chipmunks' four generations of fans. Presented for the first time in glorious CGI, the series features ground-breaking animation and a new, original Chipmunk song in every episode. The series is an animated version of a prime-time sitcom and reflects the trials and tribulations of a single parent, David Seville, trying to raise six hyper-active Chipmunks. Like most parents, Dave's patience will be pushed to the limit, forcing him to end most sentences in "ALVINNN!!!"

Premieres: Thursdays at 6 p.m. ET/PT beginning October 8
From Warner Bros. Animation, Be Cool Scooby-Doo! is 26 episodes of an all-new 22-minute animated comedy series featuring the Scooby gang, back with a modern comedic twist on the beloved classic. With high school over and one last summer to live it up, the gang hits the road in the Mystery Machine, chasing fun and adventure. But monsters and mayhem keep getting in the way.
