The Save-Ums! is a Canadian CGI animated children's television series produced by Decode Entertainment. The series premiered on Discovery Kids as part of the Ready Set Learn programming block on February 24, 2003, and ended on October 10, 2006 with 40 episodes being produced.

Synopsis
The Save-Ums, which consist of Jazzi, Noodle, Custard, Ka-Chung, Foo and B.B. Jammies, are patrol group of six aliens of various appearances, who help various critters when they run into difficulty.

Each episode begins with a call on the "adventure screen" (essentially a videophone) from an inhabitant of the world in which the Save-Ums live. The caller describes the difficulty that needs to be resolved, and then select Save-Ums travel to the scene of the problem. There are three different places that the Save-Ums travel to solve problems: Rock World, an island with a huge mountain; Lava World, a tropical island with a volcano; and Wave World, which is under the ocean.

The Save-Ums then assist in solving the problem. Each episode ends with the problem being solved and the Save-Ums returning to their safety headquarters.

Characters

The Save-Ums
 Jazzi (voiced by Tajja Isen) is a female purple passionate girl with red hair tied into two puppytails who dreams to speak the language of wild horses. She is afraid of water and is shown to be the leader in numerous episodes. She is known to say "People, we have a plan!" whenever she, another Save-Um, or a secondary character has an idea.
 Noodle (Caboche in the French dub, voiced by Mark Rendall in season 1 and Cameron Ansell in season 2) is a male white pound puppy-like alien who is the most intelligent and mature of the group, often being the voice of reason and helping others to see what is right. He also pilots the subchopper, a helicopter that travels on air or under the sea.
 Custard (Berlingot in the French dub, voiced by Jordan Francis) is a cool male purple and red cat-eared Save-Um who pilots the Zoomer, a powerboat that travels on either water or snow, and goes on most missions. He is known for saying "Bam!" when he has an idea.
 Ka-Chung (Aïkido in the French dub, voiced by Mitchell Eisner) is a male red and white hippopotamus-like alien who is the toughest Save-Um. He is known to shout "Ka-Chung!" as his catchphrase. He strongs the Ka-Drill, a tunnel boring machine.
 Foo (Louna in the French dub, voiced by Aaryn Doyle) is a female blue and yellow long limbed angelfish-like bird who is the youngest and nicest of the Save-Ums. She also goes on most missions. She flies a jet pack.
 B.B. Jammies (Bébé Jimmy in the French dub, voiced by Connor Price) is Jazzi's miniature brother, who has a purple diamond-shaped head. Since he is too little to go on missions, he mostly plays with the Puffs.

Other recurring
 The Puffs are six tiny fluffy colorful of rainbow pets who live and play with the Save-Ums, but don't go on any missions. They sometimes are a help to them.
 Winston (voiced by Asa Perlman impersonating Woody Allen) is a bespectacled whale who lives in Wave World and has an underwater garden.
 Tony and Sal (voiced by Demore Barnes) are army crabs who live in Wave World.
 Andre (voiced by Amanda Soha) is a little super seahorse who lives in Wave World.
 Olena (voiced by Sugar Lyn Beard) is a little octopus who lives in Wave World.
 Raymundo (voiced by Carlos Díaz) and Peque are ants who live in Lava World.
 Oscar (voiced by Benny Shilling and Scott Beaudin (sometimes)) and Tina (voiced by Melanie Tonello) are little monkeys who live in Lava World.
 Baby Dino is a baby dinosaur babysat by Raymundo and Peque, who lives in Lava World.
 Colin (voiced by Rob Smith in season 1 and Jonathan Wilson in season 2) and Elizabat (voiced by Dolly Reno in season 1 and Phoebe McAuley in season 2) are furry bats who live in Rock World. 
 Dory (voiced by Alexandra Lai) and Terrell (voiced by Frank Ferlisi) are glowblobs who live in Rock World.
