Odd Squad is an American and Canadian educational TV series that premiered on TVOKids and PBS Kids in November 2014. The series involves child characters using mathematical concepts to advance each episode's plot. The series was created by Tim McKeon and Adam Peltzman and is co-produced by Fred Rogers Productions and Sinking Ship Entertainment in association with TVOKids and Ici Radio-Canada Télé. The series features child actors (whose characters are the employees of the "Odd Squad") who use indirect reasoning and basic math to solve and investigate strange happenings in their town.
