Chilly Beach was a Canadian animated series, which aired on CBC Television in Canada and The Comedy Channel in Australia.

The show was cancelled during the production of the third season, which was never finished or aired on television - with the show totalling 65 episodes.

A second film, The Canadian President was also produced.
