The Save-Ums! 2018

The Save-Ums! 2018 is a 2018 Canadian CGI animated adult television series produced by Decode Entertainment.
== Synopsis ==
The Save-Ums!, which consist of Jazzi (now voiced by Tara Strong), Noodle (Caboche in the French dub, now voiced by Mark Rendall), Custard (Berlingot in the French dub, now voiced by Jordan Francis), Ka-Chung (Aïkido in the French dub, now voiced by Mitchell Eisner), Foo (Louna in the French dub, still voiced by Aaryn Doyle) and B.B. Jammies (Bébé Jimmy in the French dub, still voiced by Connor Price), are patrol group of six aliens of various appearances who help various critters when they run into difficulty as adults instead of children like before.
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 they travel: 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 as adults instead of children like before. Each episode ends with the problem being solved and them returning to their safety headquarters, which is now a bar called The Safe House where they drink beer while watching TV or playing video games on their phones when not on missions unlike before where it was just a regular house for kids without any alcohol inside since this show is aimed at an adult audience unlike its predecessor that was aimed towards younger viewers.

She also has an obsession with social media and taking selfies as well as being addicted to her phone which gets her into trouble in some episodes.
Noodle (Caboche in the French dub, voiced by Mark Rendall) is a male white pound puppy-like adult alien who is the most intelligent and mature of the group like before, often being the voice of reason and helping others to see what is right unlike his younger self.
