Da Boom Crew

Da Boom Crew is a Canadian/American children's television animated series, produced by Berliner Film Company in association with Jambalaya Studios in Los Angeles, California. The series was co-created by Bruce W. Smith, also the co-creator of Disney Channel's The Proud Family.

The series premiered on Kids' WB in September 2004. Unusual for an animated series, it was cancelled after only four episodes aired due to low ratings and negative viewer reception.

In the United Kingdom, all 13 episodes were broadcast on Cartoon Network UK in 2005.

A press release by Animation Magazine claimed a second season had been in production, though nothing else was ever said about it actually going into production or being animated.

Plot
After four young foster children create a video game about heroes attempting to defeat space alien terrorists in various planets, suddenly a portal appears and transports them into a dimension that is really  similar to their game. This show also details their adventures in this parallel world as they embark on a quest to find their missing game cartridges and  conquer the sadistic  extraterrestrial emperor Zorch before he takes control of this galaxy.
