Maggie and the Ferocious Beast is a Canadian animated TV series created by Michael and Betty Paraskevas. The program was based on the 1996 book The Ferocious Beast with the Polka-Dot Hide and its sequels, all of which were also written by the Paraskevases.

The show began as a series of shorts aired on the Canadian channel Teletoon in 1998. The first full-length episode premiered on August 26, 2000. In the United States, Maggie and the Ferocious Beast aired on the cable network Nickelodeon as part of its Nick Jr. block.

A young girl named Maggie creates her own map of an imaginary world known as "Nowhere Land" that, in reality, takes the characters nowhere. She imagines that characters Beast and Hamilton Hocks are her friends.

The theme song for the show is "Maggie and the Ferocious Beast in Nowhere Land," which is an original song by Isabella Molley. Maggie and the Ferocious Beast is produced by Nelvana and directed by Jamie Whitney and Stuart Shankly. The series debuted in 2000 and the series aired its last episode in 2002. The show was distributed by Nelvana, which owned the distribution rights. In the UK, the show was dubbed with British voice actors, replacing the original Canadian soundtrack.

This is a list of episodes of the show. Each season had 13 episodes and aired in different years.
