Numb Chucks is a Canadian animated television series that was created by Phil LaFrance and Jamie LeClaire and premiered on YTV in Canada on January 7, 2014.
The series is produced by Jam Filled Entertainment and 9 Story Media Group, in association with YTV, and was produced with the participation of The Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit, The Canada Media Fund, Ontario Film and Television Tax Credit, Ontario Computer Animation and Special Effects Tax Credit and with the financial participation of The Shaw Rocket Fund.
The series stars Dilweed and Fungus, two woodchucks with big hearts who are obsessed with using their bungling kung-fu skills to protect the lives of the citizens in their town of Ding-a-Ling Springs.
Before one night changed their lives, woodchuck brothers Dilweed and Fungus never saw themselves as heroes. But during a late-night-TV infomercial, they order a Woodchuck Morris kung-fu video. Now, they have made it their mission to become just as awesome as their kung-fu mentor. Misguided but with good intentions, the brothers become obsessed with using their newfound skills to protect the citizens in their town of Ding-a-Ling Springs. Dilweed and Fungus take on a never-ending quest to fight off danger with Morris' guidance.
In January 2015, it was announced that 9 Story Interactive, 9 Story Media Group's interactive division, and Splashworks were developing an Numb Chucks mobile game entitled "Chuck Fu." The game was released on March 18, 2015 and can be played on iTunes and Google Play.
Episodes of Numb Chucks are available for digital download through the iTunes Music Store, which are in two volumes. In the UK Universal Pictures Home Entertainment released episodes on DVD.
Numb Chucks has been broadcast in Canada on its original channel, The Zone (YTV), since January 7, 2014. Then on July 4, 2016, the series began airing on Teletoon as well as YTV.
On March 10, 2014, Cartoon Network announced the series as part of its 2014-15 season to air on the network in the United States. However, it was later moved to Boomerang and premiered there on January 10, 2015, a year and three days after the debut on YTV. It was removed from the schedule on July 12, 2015. It is currently unknown if the second season of Numb Chucks will premiere in the US.
