Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman

Ruff is frazzled. He needs more time to get his first show ready, but unfortunately, he's live on the air right now! What to do? The show must go on! Ruff sends three FETCHers to meet a big star. They arrive at the Museum of Science to discover that the star is the sun, and that they're about to blast off on an amazing space race. Can they rush through a city-sized scale model of the solar system -- using trains, boats, cabs, and a three-wheeled bike -- before time runs out?!

Ruff wants to try out some new dance moves on the poodle next door, but is horrified when she tells him he's got halitosis. He decides to send one team of FETCHers to learn how to ballroom dance, and a second team out to prove that dog mouths are cleaner than human mouths.

Ruff incinerates his daily ration of kibble in the Fetch 3000 but then discovers he's out of Chinese food. Resorting to desperate measures, Ruff must try to extract a treat from a dog toy. A starving Ruff challenges Anna to "cook" on the dance floor as she learns how to dance hip-hip, and Noah, Khalil and Julia must cook for a crowd of picky eaters - animals at the zoo!

Ruff is excited because he thinks today's episode is all about kites, until he gets a phone call from his boss Henry who wants the show to be about cats. Cats!!?? Ruff has no choice but to give airtime to cats as he challenges Taylor and Anna to train a cat to fetch. Meanwhile Noah and Brian must design, build and fly a kite that will lift a dog biscuit in the air and land it on the front porch of Charlene, the poodle next door.

Losing power in the doghouse gives Ruff the most Brilliant Idea in the History of Television! All he needs is a $250,000,000 advance from his boss, Henry, to buy a time machine to send the whole cast back in time…way back…to 1627! Dressed as Colonists, the cast members abandon their videogames and cell phones for log sawing, oven starting, jaw harping, goat tending, and lessons in Colonial life.

Ruff has just finished shooting his first ever FETCH promo, "Busy As a Bee," but he can't get out of his bee costume because the zipper is broken! Bees on the brain, Ruff challenges Brian and Khalil to learn how to be beekeepers. Anna and Julia's challenge has nothing to do with bees--they must learn how to windsurf with the help of windsurfing champion, Nevin Sayer.

Ever the entrepreneur, Ruff has invested his entire show budget in his latest culinary creation: the Liver and Pineapple Biscuit Shake. Looking for ways to improve his recipe, Ruff sends one team of FETCHers out to invent a new flavor of ice cream (the three main ingredients have to start with the letters B, L, and T and two of them have to be vegetables), and Brian must fill in as a short order cook at a local diner.

Ruff tells the kids about the legend of his great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather Ruffael Ruffmanowitz who lived in spooky Hammond Castle with the famed inventor John Hayes Hammond. Ruff sends the whole team out to Hammond Castle to retrieve Ruffmanowitz's lost invention. Oh, and by the way, did anyone mention the castle is haunted by ghost cats?

In a slight lapse of fiscal judgment, Ruff decides to buy the Apple-Peeler 2.0, reducing the show’s budget to 13¢. He decides to recruit the FETCHers to earn some quick cash by building their own lemonade stand with the help of master carpenter Norm Abram.

Ruff, in an artistic mood, is working on putting the finishing touches on his latest masterpiece when he hears the loud crashing of thunder outside his doghouse. Having just heard the weather announcer on W-O-O-F predict clear skies, a confused Ruff is determined to figure out what's going on. He sends Taylor out to learn how to forecast the weather. And Noah, Khalil and Brian must brave the elements to make some art of their own as they join the city's mural crew in planning and painting a mural for a local pizzeria.

Trying to relieve a bad case of "Game Show Host Block," Ruff has fallen asleep and left the water in the bathtub running! The flooded doghouse is filled with floating junk, giving him the perfect idea for today's challenge: Khalil, Anna, and Julia, must design a boat out of materials they find at the dump. Their boat has to float; it has to be stable and steer-able; and it has to be propelled by something other than oars.

Ruff plans on getting back at the Great Spotinsky, the now famous circus dog responsible for cheating Ruff out of his dream job. Ruff sends Brian out to the big top to get some circus pointers, and another team sets out to design a water balloon launcher: the Ultimate Weapon of Revenge!

Grandma Ruffman wants Ruff to sell a few hundred thousand copies of her cookbook on his show, but she thinks her grandson needs to be much funnier to garner the ratings he'll need to move product. So Ruff sends Taylor, Noah, and Brian out to cook Grandma's recipes…on a farm, and Grandma sends Khalil out to learn how to tell jokes from a professional comedian.

When Ruff's owner brings home a "doggy bag" consisting of one measly dinner roll, Ruff decides that his evening meal needs to get "kicked up a notch." He challenges his cast to use creativity, cunning, and capability in this Iron Chef spoof!

Ruff is learning how to drive using his new Driver Simulation Program for Dogs. Problems ensue as he veers off the course and into a sea lion tank, but this vehicular disaster provides Ruff with two great ideas for today's show: Julia becomes the pit crew chief for a professional junior go karter, and Taylor trains sea lions at the New England Aquarium!

Ruff decides to turn over a new leaf--the stress of running a TV show will no longer get to him--no siree. He sends the FETCHers to a spa to learn about yoga and how to get their heart rates down, then it's on to an amusement park to get their pulses racing and scientifically measure their "fear factor."

There's been a break-in! While Ruff was away at a Canine-Television-Entertainment-Convention, someone broke into his doghouse and stole his new kneeboard. He sends Noah out to learn the ins and outs of kneeboarding, while another team of FETCHers learns how to track all types of wild animals.

Ruff's communication satellite is on the blink, in desperate need of repair. He'd fix it himself, but he can't fit into the old spacesuit from his doggie cosmonaut days. This is where Taylor, Brian, Khalil, Anna, Julia, and Noah come in: Ruff sends them all to Space Camp for astronaut training!

After an incredible season of earning points from wild-and occasionally ridiculous--challenges, the Great Dane of All Episodes is here! In this grand finale, Ruff must award the season's grand prize--which he still hasn't come up with yet! Three elimination rounds of ultimate competition will pit Noah, Khalil, Julia, Brian, Anna, and Taylor against each other. Who will be crowned Fetch! The Grand Champion?! And how will Ruff decide on a grand prize?!
