Ollie's Pack is a Canadian cartoon produced by Nevlana in Toronto. It was created by Pedro Eboli and Graham Peterson. It is based on the Monster Pack short from all the way back in 2013, which was produced for Nickelodeon, but Nick did not greenlight the show for production. Nelvana opted to produce the show instead.
Thirteen-year-old Ollie, with the help of his best buddies Cleo and Bernie and monster trainer Captain Wowski, protects and controls a backpack portal to the world of monsters.
Along the way, the gang gets into typical slice of life pubescent shenanigans like making a movie and avoiding doing laundry.
It airs on YTV in Canada. In the United States, it premiered on Nickelodeon on April 6, 2020.
