Get Ready to Laugh: ‘Super Team Canada’ Brings Hilarious Superheroes to Crave This May!
Get ready for some maple syrup-soaked, superhero shenanigans with Canada’s finest in the animated world!
Fans of comedy, superheroes, and all things uniquely Canadian are in for a treat this summer. Crave’s Super Team Canada promises to deliver a fresh, fun take on the superhero genre with an adult animated series that mixes wacky humor with world-saving missions—all while serving up a heavy dose of maple syrupy goodness.
What is ‘Super Team Canada’?
The show is Crave’s first-ever original animated series, and it brings together a ragtag group of Canadian superheroes who have been called upon to save Earth in its darkest hour. Set against the backdrop of absurdity, Super Team Canada follows six lesser-known heroes (think small-town-level powers, big ambitions) who must fight to protect the world from a series of outlandish threats. These include giant robots, an unemployed octopus, and, yes, even needy hardware store clerks.
With all the traditional superheroes out of commission, it’s up to these C-list crusaders to step up. This quirky premise makes the show a refreshing spin on the usual caped crusader stories. Each hero brings their own offbeat Canadian charm—flawed, lovable, and completely unpredictable.
The Creators: A Winning Pair of Brothers
Behind the scenes, Super Team Canada is the brainchild of Emmy-winning brothers Robert Cohen and Joel H. Cohen, both of whom are veterans of The Simpsons. With their impressive comedy backgrounds, the duo has created a series guaranteed to keep viewers laughing from episode to episode.
The Star-Studded Canadian Cast
The series features a stellar Canadian voice cast. Will Arnett (BoJack Horseman, Arrested Development), Cobie Smulders (How I Met Your Mother, Marvel’s Maria Hill), and Kevin McDonald (Kids in the Hall) lead the ensemble. They’re joined by Charles Demers (The Last Kids on Earth), Ceara Morgana (Starship Troopers: Extermination), Veena Sood (Deepa & Anoop), and guest star Jay Baruchel (How to Train Your Dragon, This Is the End).
Adding to the show’s uniquely Canadian flavor is a theme song written by music icon Bryan Adams, giving the series an anthemic intro worthy of its quirky heroes.
What’s in Store for Fans?
Super Team Canada premieres on May 16 with two back-to-back episodes, launching a 10-episode season packed with chaos, comedy, and Canadian culture. The heroes will face everything from giant robots to the hilariously mundane trials of everyday life. Expect unexpected villains, pancake-related dilemmas, and moments of heartfelt heroism.
The show’s motto—“drown the pancakes of evil in the maple syrup of justice”—perfectly sums up its absurd yet endearing tone.
