Futz! is a Canadian animated series that was first shown on Teletoon as a sneak peek on August 24, 2007[1] and began airing regularly on September 3, 2007,[2][3] ending on January 6, 2008 after 26 episodes.[3] It also aired in Australia on ABC from April 14, 2008[4] to October 20, 2008[5] and was set to air on several other channels worldwide.[6] On Teletoon, it has aired as an interstitial program following movies presented on the channel.[7]
The Gemini Award-nominated show was created by Vadim Kapridov.[8] Originally it was a web animation that appeared on United Feature Syndicate's website, comics.com, where they posted a series of Flash cartoons called Mr. Futz in 2001.[9] It was later picked up for television, with development beginning in 2002, with production commencing in December 2006[10] and ending on schedule[11] in September 2007.[12]
The show's premise revolves around the eponymous main character and his zany adventures.[13] Eschewing verbal dialogue, the series portrays the escapades of this character, who has been described as an anti-hero, in a comedic light.[14]

The show consists of 26 episodes of 3 minutes each.[15] Australian airdates are provided for ABC1 or ABC2 depending on the episode; repeats of the series have also aired on ABC3.[16] Episodes are provided in the Canadian order.[17]
