Oddballs is an American-Canadian animated comedy series created by YouTuber James Rallison (TheOdd1sOut) and Ethan Banville. The series premiered on October 7, 2022 on Netflix.
Oddballs follows James, a bubble-shaped boy, whose observations on life fuel his comedic rants at everyday annoyances and elevates them to laughably absurd heights. Along with his best friends Max (a talking crocodile) and Echo (a girl who claims to be from the future), James' ridiculous schemes to question norms often result in disaster.
This is a list of episodes listed per season.
