Shezow is an Australian-Canadian animated television series created by Obie Scott Wade, originally made as a short for Disney Channel's Shorty McShorts' Shorts in 2007.
It began airing on Network Ten on 15 December 2012, and will run for 26 episodes, and there is talk of a second season in the works. Aimed at kids 6–11 years old, the series is produced by Moody Street Kids and Kickstart Productions. It is distributed by DHX Media, and funded in part by Film Victoria. It was designed by Australian artist Kyla May.
Summary
The series' protagonist, a 12-year-old boy named Guy[1] Hamdon, discovers the superheroine Shezow's power ring (originally worn and used by his late Aunt Agnes) and puts it on. While the power ring does grant him super powers, it was only meant to be worn by a woman, so Guy must wear a female superhero costume while fighting crime.
In the United States, it was added to the schedule lineup of Hub Network on June 1, 2013.[2]
In the United Kingdom, the series will be shown on Sky.[3]
The show was considered controversial by several conservative Christian groups for using cross-dressing as a source of humour,[4] with One Million Moms, an affiliate of the American Family Association being one of the groups targeting it.[5]
