Jack (sometimes called Jack the Explorer) is a 3D-animated TV series broadcast by TVOntario as a part of its TVOKids lineup. It is about an alien named Jack and a brother and sister who make friends with him, while hiding his existence from their parents. First created in 2009, its TV premiere was scheduled for September 5, 2011, but was actually aired two days later. As of October 21, 2014, there are at least 39 22-minute episodes in the series, each consisting of two 11-minute segments, with a total of 78 individually-named stories.
Jack is a fun-loving alien explorer whose coolest discovery yet is the amazing, planet Earth! With the help of his alien dog Rocket and his robotic assistant C.H.I.P., he sets out on a series of fun and daring adventures to learn all about this strange new planet! Showing him the ropes are his three new friends: a nine-year-old boy named Nico, his little sister Sam, and their slacker pal Yoki. Together they help Jack (and us) understand how things work here on Earth...and beyond!
