Chuck's Choice


Chuck's Choice is a Canadian animated television series produced by DHX Media for Corus Entertainment that originally aired on YTV from May 6, 2017 to June 9, 2017. 20 episodes were produced.
The show follows Chuck McFarlane, an 11-year-old boy with an alien robot. When he gets himself into a lot of difficult situations, his robot, U.D., hacks into "decider mode". Time freezes and U.D. gives Chuck three choices. He has to choose one and it will come true, but not always in the way he expects. His best friend, Misha, knows the art of combat and is often saving Chuck from monsters and threats. Whenever Chuck chooses to teleport them somewhere, Misha always comes with him.

Plot

The series is about an 11-year-old boy named Chuck McFarlane who has an intergalactic reality-altering robot named U.D. who manifests one of three choices throughout his day, leading to diverging adventures in each timeline.
This is called "Decider Mode" and time appears to freeze for everyone but U.D. and "The Decider". Although they seem random, U.D. reveals the ability to influence the selection in "Flush Hour Two" when he generates three identical options to seek help from a pirate monkey to rescue Ariana, the goldfish he befriended that belongs to Chuck's best friend Misha.
