Chowder

Chowder is an animated TV show from the United States, crafted by C.H. Greenblatt for Cartoon Network. The storyline centers on a young, ambitious chef named Chowder, who embarks on daily escapades as an apprentice at Mung Daal’s catering business. Despite his good intentions, Chowder frequently lands in trouble due to his insatiable hunger and absent-mindedness. He is also constantly bothered by Panini, the apprentice of Mung’s competitor, Endive, who insists on making Chowder her “boyfriend,” much to his dismay. The series combines traditional animation with brief stop-motion puppet segments, which are interspersed throughout the episodes and featured during the end credits.

Throughout its run, it achieved one Primetime Emmy Award, received six Annie Award nominations, and earned two additional Emmy Award nominations.
