C.L.Y.D.E. is an exciting animated TV show from Canada and France. It's all about a super-smart computer from another planet named C.L.Y.D.E. (which stands for Computer Linked Yield Driven Entity). C.L.Y.D.E. gets into trouble on his home planet for having a "sense of humor" – imagine that! As punishment, he's sent flying into space.
C.L.Y.D.E. crash-lands on Earth, but his main computer part is still working. Two kids, Matt and Sam, find him. They put C.L.Y.D.E. into an old jukebox, which lets him talk to them. He can also move objects with his mind, a power called telekinesis. Many of Matt, Sam, and C.L.Y.D.E.'s adventures involve secret agents trying to find C.L.Y.D.E. They also have to fight computer viruses, stop hackers, or even deal with invading aliens!
This cartoon was shown in China in the late 1990s on CCTV-7. It also aired in the United States on the Cookie Jar Toons block on This TV from 2009 to 2010.
