The ZhuZhus (formerly known as Polly and the ZhuZhu Pets[11]) is an animated children's television series developed by Hugh Duffy for Disney Channel and YTV. The series is based on the American toy franchise ZhuZhu Pets. It is the second animated adaptation starring the Fab Four; Pipsqueak, Mr. Squiggles, Num Nums, and Chunk, following Quest for Zhu in 2011.
The series is about Frankie Pamplemousse, a young girl who owns four talking hamsters. It debuted on Disney Channel in the United States on September 12, 2016.[12]
Plot
The ZhuZhus is about 8-year-old[13] Frankie Pamplemousse, who lives in Anytown[14] with her parents who run a plumbing home business called Pamplemouse Plumbing.[15] She owns four talking hamsters called the ZhuZhus; Pipsqueak, Mr. Squiggles, Num Nums, and Chunk, as they have adventures in their town.
Characters
Main
- Frankie Pamplemousse[16] (formerly named Polly Pamplemousse; voiced by Jenna Warren) is the 8-year-old[13] owner of the ZhuZhus. She likes sports and hanging out with her friends, the ZhuZhus.[17] She has blonde hair and blue eyes.
- Pipsqueak (voiced by Tajja Isen) is Frankie's first ZhuZhu,[18] and the unofficial leader of the ZhuZhus[17] who loves adventure. She'll do anything to help Frankie and the team out. She is fearless, energetic, and very loyal to Frankie. She is yellow and her birthmark, which are located on the Zhus' backs, is a shooting star.
- Mr. Squiggles (voiced by Richard Binsley) is the secondly introduced ZhuZhu, and the oldest.[19] He is smart, resourceful, and likes science. He also invents machines that help the team out when in need. He is orange, has wrinkles under his eyes, wears a belt, and his birthmark is a spiral.
- Num Nums (voiced by Stephany Seki) is the thirdly introduced ZhuZhu. She is shy and a cautious thinker, and unlike her best friend Pipsqueak,[20] she isn't as daring as the rest of the team, but will also do anything to help them out. Despite this however, she still has a tough side whenever she or the team is insulted.[21][22] She is purple, wears pink glasses, and her birthmark is a heart.
- Chunk (voiced by Robert Tinkler) is the fourthly introduced ZhuZhu. As his name suggests, he is very chunky. He is also very strong. He is stylish and always admires himself, and usually serves as the comic relief. His cousins are Jilly and Bean, two mischievous twins. He is light blue[23] and his birthmark is a sun. He is the tallest Zhu.
Recurring
- Ellen[24] Pamplemousse[25] or "Mom" (voiced by Stacey DePass) is Frankie's mother and a professional plumber for Pamplemouse Plumbing. She used to be a part of the Power Badge Girls.
- Stanley[26] Pamplemousse[25] or "Dad" (voiced by Zachary Bennett) is Frankie's father and also a professional plumber for Pamplemouse Plumbing. He loves music and was previously a Wilderness Teen Ranger. Thus, he knows a lot about nature.
- Wilfred P. Kerdle[27] or Mr. Kerdle (voiced by Patrick McKenna) is the cranky janitor of Frankie's school. He tries to stop the Zhus from coming into the school and insults them.
- Cindy and Mindy Gelato (voiced by Rebecca Brenner and Samantha Weinstein) are twins and Frankie's friends.
- Madge (voiced by Brianna D'Aguanno) is Frankie's neighbor and worst enemy. She always tries to beat Frankie at everything. She has blue hair and brown eyes and a cat named Princess Tickyboo.
- Whendy Sails (voiced by Nicole Stamp) is a celebrity and news reporter for Channel 5.[28]
- Jessica Beeker (voiced by Addison Holley) is Frankie's favorite popstar.
- Dr. Phelmholz (voiced by Rob Rubin) is an Austrian doctor from Vienna.[29]
Production
The ZhuZhus is produced by Nelvana and Cepia LLC, in association with Corus Entertainment. The series is animated using Toon Boom Animation and recorded in Studio 306 Inc. It was first announced on February 12, 2015 by Kristin Musulin of USA Today as a Nelvana production, with a planned release of 2016.[30] The show was originally referred to as ZhuZhu Pets,[31] but the actual title was revealed to be Polly and the ZhuZhu Pets.[11] The last episode to air on Disney Channel with that title was "Fur-Vivor/Zhuper Girl," which premiered on October 21, 2016,[1] and the show went on a hiatus. After its hiatus the series gained a new name and Polly's name was changed to Frankie for the rest of the series' run. Eventually all seven episodes that were previously broadcast on Disney Channel were redubbed to say Frankie instead of Polly.

Reception
Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media rated The ZhuZhus a 3 out of 5 stars, stating "the series does well to stand on its own entertainment merit, but it can't avoid commercial tie-ins altogether."[77] Bruce Katz of Cepia feels that "the animation further enhanced the personality of the characters," and says that "they've captured the essence of what ZhuZhu Pets is all about."[13]

Two online games are currently available on The ZhuZhus website called Tube Racers and Costume Couture.[78] An app was also released on April 18, 2017 called The ZhuZhus: Zhuniverse, which is available to play on iTunes and Google Play.[79][80]
