Action League Now! (also known as Action League Now!: The Series when spun-off into its own television series) is a stop motion children's television series that was originally part of All That and then KaBlam! on Nickelodeon, and was later spun off into its own show, premiered on Nickelodeon on November 25, 2001, and ending its run on February 10, 2002. It was made using "chuckimation" (a combination of stop-frame animation and live-action shots where things are simply thrown ("") or dropped into frame or wiggled around to simulate talking). The series follows the adventures of a superhero league, composed of various action figures, toys, and dolls. The show was created by Robert Mittenthal, Will McRobb, and Albie Hecht.

Most episodes took place in a house of an unseen resident. Many of the characters were voiced by radio personalities from Pittsburgh. The last time this show aired on U.S. television was on the channel Nicktoons on December 31, 2010. For the first time since December 31, 2010, the show returned to U.S. television on November 19, 2016 on The Splat

The Action League have had various other villains throughout the show's run, including (but not limited to) a gigantic baby simply named "Big Baby", a Mesozoic monster (in reality, a dog Jack Russell Terrier) called Spotzilla, a rival superhero league known as the Danger Society, a bald genius known as Smarty Pants, an enemy of Stinky's past called Red Ninja, a group of evil aliens, a gypsy who cursed The Chief, and a mummy brought to life by The Mayor. Sometimes, due to their own collective stupidity, even the League themselves can be the main cause of a problem.
