Scaredy Squirrel is a Canadian animated comedy television series based very loosely on the Scaredy Squirrel book series by Mélanie Watt. The series premiered in Canada on April 3, 2011 on YTV but was not well received by fans and viewers who criticize the show's humor as well as it's numerous differences from the books.
The series chronicles the adventures of Scaredy, an energetic squirrel, and his best friend Dave, a skunk. Their antics take place in fictional Balsa City, and often at the local supermarket the Stash n' Hoard, where Scaredy works as a stacker.
Scaredy Squirrel premiered in Canada April 1, 2011 on YTV. The US debut on Cartoon Network was on August 9, 2011. The Latin American debut was on January 2, 2012. The UK station POP started to air episodes January 5, 2013, and is currently being shown in regularly scheduled programming on Kix!. The Gaeilge debut on TG4 Ireland on 2015.
