''Blaster's Universe'' is a short-lived [[SaturdayMorningCartoon Saturday morning animated series]] produced by Creator/{{Nelvana}} and aired from October 2, 1999 to September 9, 2000 on Creator/{{CBS}} in the USA and Creator/{{Teletoon}} in Canada. It was based on the [[VideoGame/BlasterSeries Blaster Learning System]] CD-ROM series, as it was reimagined in the late 1990s.

It only ran for one season, and aired in reruns on the network [=KidsCo=] in international countries like the UK and Australia until the network was canned.

* {{Adorkable}}: Max Blaster is laid-back and energetic, but is still cute at the same time.

* EmbarrassingSlide: In "Misplaced Weekend", MEL is showing a montage of all the nefarious things Dr. Dabble has done. The last thing he shows is a scantily-clad poodle on the beach. He blushes and asks "How did that get in there?"

Set in the year 2222, it chronicles the adventures of Max Blaster, a bright, impetuous 12 year old boy obsessed with science and space, and his best friend G.C., a cool 12 year old girl who looks like an earthling but is really an alien. Also joining them is a brave and loyal RobotDog named MEL (acronym for Mechanically Enhanced Lapdog). Together, they travel across the galaxy to stop intergalactic villains from destroying their home planet of Omega.
