Season 1 Season 2 Season 3 Season 4

Season One is the first season of the PBS Kids live-action series Odd Squad, which originally ran from November 26, 2014 to May 30, 2016. It consists of 40 episodes. The events of the season occur during a 1-year time span, as Agent Otto has his 10th birthday party Zero Effect, and has his 11th birthday party the following Saturday in O is Not For Over.

Concept[]

The first season of Odd Squad focuses on two agents, Agent Olive and Agent Otto, who work for an organization run by kids to fix odd occurrences and events with math skills in Precinct 13579. They receive instructions from Ms. O, their boss, and travel in tube systems to their destinations. They solve cases by using fundamental arithmetic and mathematical principles that serve as the main focus of the episode. In addition, they use gadgets built by Agent Oscar and the Mathroom to assist them in solving cases. They also deal with a multitude of recurring villains.
