Max and Shred was a Canadian television series that aired on Nickelodeon from October 2014 to March 2016. It followed the story of an unlikely pair of friends named Max and Shred, who were brought together by circumstance and managed to form a close bond as they navigated the challenges of adolescence.

Max Asher (Jonny Gray) was a 14-year-old snowboarder from Colorado, who had become a rising star in the sports world. He had just won a major competition, and was ready to take on the world. However, his parents had other plans for him. They decided to move to the snowless city of Blizzard Springs, where they hoped he would focus on school and leave snowboarding behind.

Max was devastated by this news, but he soon met his new neighbor, Alvin "Shred" Ackerman (Jake Goodman), who was a 12-year-old science prodigy. Shred was also an outsider, as he had just moved to Blizzard Springs from Canada. Unlike Max, he was not interested in sports, but he was passionate about science and technology.

Despite their differences, Max and Shred quickly became close friends. Shred was fascinated by Max's athleticism and snowboarding skills, and Max was impressed by Shred's intelligence and inventions. They both found common ground in their love of Chinese food and their desire to fit into their new community.

The show centered around their adventures as they tried to balance their friendship with their individual pursuits. Max tried to keep his passion for snowboarding alive, even though he was in a snowless city. He started a snowboarding club at school and tried to recruit new members to his team. Shred, on the other hand, tried to fit in at school and use his inventions to solve everyday problems.

They were often joined by their friends: Abby (Emilia McCarthy), who was Max's love interest, and Howie (Jean-Michel Le Gal), Shred's best friend who had a crush on Abby. Together, they had a lot of fun and got into some hilarious and sometimes risky situations.

The show was full of humor, heart, and action. It touched on themes of friendship, loyalty, fitting in, and pursuing your dreams. It was also notable for its diverse cast, with characters from different ethnic backgrounds and genders.

Emilia McCarthy played Abby, a smart and independent girl who had a crush on Max. She was also an athlete, and her favorite sport was hockey. Saara Chaudry played Patti, Shred's younger sister, who was also a science prodigy. Jean-Michel Le Gal played Howie, Shred's best friend who was always eager to help and was hopelessly in love with Abby.

The show was produced by Breakthrough Entertainment in association with YTV, and it was created by Josh Greenbaum and Ben McMillan. It was targeted towards a young audience, but it had something for all ages. Its humor was appropriate for kids, but it was also clever and witty enough to make adults laugh.

Overall, Max and Shred was a fun and entertaining show that left a lasting impression on its viewers. It was a perfect blend of comedy, adventure, and heart that kept fans glued to their screens week after week. Although it only ran for two seasons, it will always be remembered as a beloved Nickelodeon classic.

Max and Shred is a series that is currently running and has 2 seasons (40 episodes). The series first aired on October 6, 2014.
