Doug

AdventureAnimationComedyDramaFamilyFantasyRomance12 min per episode

In his new hometown of Bluffington, Doug Funnie tries to make sense of middle-school life one journal entry at a time. Each story follows a familiar problem—fitting in, getting embarrassed at school, dealing with rumors, facing bullies, or figuring out friendships—and then shows how much bigger it becomes inside Doug’s head. His imagination turns ordinary setbacks into elaborate fantasies, but the real challenge is usually simpler: saying the right thing, doing the brave thing, or surviving another awkward day. Many of Doug’s schemes circle back to Patti Mayonnaise, the classmate he wants badly to impress, even when that only makes everything more complicated.
