Kid Paddle is a Belgian, French and Canadian co-produced animated series. It aired on Teletoon, Sundays at 4:00 am, EST, but is currently on an indefinite hiatus. The show is based on the long running popular Franco-Belgian comic series of the same name, created by Michel Ledent.
Following a culinary mishap, poor Horace finds himself on his way to the hospital; he just swallowed a live spider, right in front of Kid and Big Bang's horrified eyes! Somehow, Kid and Big Bang manage to convince themselves that the terrible arachnid is about to lay its eggs in Horace's stomach; when they finally come out, the giant spiders are sure to take over the world!
Selected as candidates for a televised contest, Kid, Big Bang and Horace decide to direct their very own disaster movie, literally! No effort is wasted to make this a great epic; all the latest animation techniques and special effects wizardry (provided by Kid and Big Bang, of course) are used to create this blockbuster.
Kid, Big Bang and Horace are going to summer camp with their whole class! Once in the mountains, however, they find themselves in a place that looks more like a boot camp than a holiday spot. Nassim and Luciole, the instructors, are cool and courageous post-adolescents, but the camp director, however, is none other than the fearsome GI Jane!
Pitbull orders Big Bang to fix his Gameboy before next morning's recess. Our brainy hero quickly succeeds at his task and, to celebrate, he invites Kid to the City Game arcade. There, he decides to plug the Gameboy into one of the game consoles. All of the games in the store go haywire and the boys are expelled from the arcade. Mirador also confiscates the Gameboy they used.
Kid is gloomy: his family has decided to celebrate his birthday in a very low-key fashion: family members only! But Kid insists that at least Horace and Big Bang attend his party! .To get his spirits up for the occasion, the boys concoct a monstrous Blork-shaped birthday cake! But M. Paddle soon discovers the gruesome pastry and tries desperately to get rid of it before anyone can eat a piece of it!
The new class president has the big responsibility to organize a great party for the school. But there's a problem: the new class president has to be elected first! To save his school from suffering through a lengthy, stuffy ball, Kid decides to run against his very own sister!
While surfing the web, Kid and his friends accidentally discover the latest version of their favorite videogame. It's not even available in stores, yet! All too happy to load it on CD ROM, they discover the next day that they picked the wrong time to do their hacking: to their dismay, they learn that an international anti-piracy net is tightening around all computer hackers, and they are right in the middle of it! They discuss an emergency plan: the police are already at the school, asking questions!
Watch out! The cult classic videogame sequel, Blork Barbarian 3, is coming out, and Kid and his friends can't wait! Joystick Billy tells them a contest has been set up: qualifying teams of three players must square off to see who will reach the finals, held in a local gymnasium. Even though their qualification score was inferior to Max's and the girls', Kid and company manage to win the first round.
Teacher Augustin Glossaire proposes a neat idea: why not publish a school paper? "" Silly! "", thinks Kid. But then again, maybe not that silly. If only the paper would deal with the real stuff, the one that matters, like Blorks and Gore! Kid, Big Bang and Horace decide to become feature reporters for the school paper.
Kid wants to prove to Glossaire that ghosts and spirits actually do exist. On Halloween night, he decides to capture one. Thanks to their homemade Ghostbusting kit, Kid, Horace and Big Bang quickly spread havoc throughout town.
In their living room, the Paddles are getting ready to enjoy the latest episode of their favorite soap opera, "" Love Clinic "". At that very moment, Kid and his friends are busy in the next room preparing a pirate television show. The "" Alien TV "" airwaves are about to invade all of the town's TV sets! Even Mirador, back at City Game, is prevented to enjoy "" Love Clinic "" because "" Alien TV "" interferes with the reception.

Kid, Big Bang and Horace are hired as extras on Kurt Maldor's new top secret project. On the set, the three boys quickly spread havoc because they are convinced the movie they're shooting is all about giant Amazonian killer bees (Apis Dorsata). Even the discovery of a giant Rikiki costume does not change their mind, and they botch scene after scene as they try, they think, to help out the production..
Kid Paddle and Big Bang want to show Horace that, with a few smart marketing strategies, just about anyone can become a show business star! To prove it, the three friends decide to form their own techno-music band, called Hubbubhaha!.The idea behind their music is ingenious: by sampling all kinds of noises from their everyday lives, they can create their own, unique sound!
Kid gets swindled by the salesman at the pet-shop: he sells him a normal, white little bunny while pretending it is a "" Werebunny "", a particularly rabid kind that only becomes wild between midnight and dawn. All of Kid's classmates immediately rush to the pet-shop to buy a monster of their own. Kid's family is rather skeptical; to prove his claim, Kid decides to film his rabbit's ferocious behavior in the kitchen during the night. The footage shows only Eugene, the cat, stealing meat morsels Kid had laid out for his werebunny.
Professor Benjamin takes Kid's entire class to the Galactic Theme Park, where he intends to teach them applied physics. During a moment of distraction, Kid and his friends sneak out of the tour to roam the theme park in search of forbidden attractions.

But as they walk, the only people they see on the park rides are OLD people!.

Kid doesn't have many enemies, but doctor Zoubroff, his dentist, is one of the most terrifying. Nicknamed Dr. Fang, he's Kid's worst nightmare..So much so that Kid tries to convince his sister Carol that Dr. Zoubroff is actually a blood-sucking vampire in cahoots with other vampires. Apparently, or so Kid says, Dr. Fang trims his vampire friends' canines to help them pass off as human and infiltrate the town as they hunt for food. Of course, Carol doesn't believe a word of it. But Kid's mounting proof and Carol's increasing doubts eventually get the best of her as she steps reluctantly into Dr. Fang's lair: the dentist's office!.

Big Bang comes up with a solution to help Kid out: with Horace's help, they will create an Internet Website where Kid will provide all the game tips his legion of fans are yearning for, thus leaving him with more time to play.
