Cosmic Quantum Ray was a German-French animated CGI animated television series. The series premiered in the U.S. in November 5, 2007 on Animania HD[1], then in 2009 in Germany on KiKa and then later on October 10, 2010, on The Hub (later in 2014 became Discovery Family). It also aired on Science Channel as part of a sneak peek of the latter. [2] As of 2019, the series is now being broadcast on Qubo. It was produced by Moonscoop,[3] Mike Young Productions, Method Films, and Telegael Torenta.

Production

Although produced by Germany's KI.KA[4] and France's M6, the show was written in English, the writing supervised by Head Writers/Co-producers and Emmy winners Pamela Hickey and Dennys McCoy. In 2009, the series beat out Nickelodeon, Disney and Cartoon Network to win the Pulcinella Award for Best TV Series.[5] The series was created by cosmologist Dr. Mani Bhaumik. Hickey and McCoy based all their stories on principles and theories from quantum physics, and Dr. Bhaumik provided the math. Cosmic Quantum Ray is a comedy/science-fiction adventure that, at the end of each episode, explains the quantum physics associated with a story and/or physical gags found within the series.

Plot

The story is about the teenager Robbie Shipton, who has a shoe box leading to the ninth dimension, home of Quantum Ray. Together with Team Quantum, Robbie is taking on bad guys spread over the whole universe, but also goes to school. There he is bullied all the time, like being slammed in his locker. Sometimes it can come out good, because his locker is leading to Cosmic Quantum Ray's universe. He has to face numerous enemies like Doctor Brainhead and Mother, one of the main villains.
