Fred's Head (Blaise le blasé, translated Blaise the Jaded) is a Canadian-French animated series made by Spectra Animation (now Echo Media[1]) and Galaxy 7, and featuring Fred, a sixteen-year-old and his not-so-normal life.
[2] The show premiered on October 29, 2007[3] and concluded its first season on July 6, 2008[4] with 26 episodes produced and aired.
[5] The show was formerly reran on Teletoon, and then it was moved to the Canadian French-language television channel, Unis, on September 1, 2014.
In the courses of his adventures, a multitude of eccentric characters pull him in all directions in search of his identity: a psychotic psychologist, an extremely odd best friend, an exotic lady immune to his charms, fashion trends devotees, and a horror film aficionado.
The show is noteworthy because it deals with problems like alcohol and cheating without beating around the bush; it actually talks about them outright.
Each episode begins with a cold opening and ends with Fred's personal thoughts of the day.
Since he plays that game all night long, Anemone Worrynaut, the school psychologist, mistakes Fred's behavior with the symptoms of depression.
With everyone (even his mother) against him, Fred must find a way to return the school to normal by convincing Anemone.
So, to bring up people to the exhibit, Fred agrees to turn a promotional, gory clip.
During this time, Fabienne has problems with her hair and asks Fred to put them back to red.
Anemone catches him red-handed and orders him to take care of Madam Butterfly, the Leblanc family's elderly neighbor.
Since Fred spends all his time at Madam Butterfly's apartment, he cannot help Anette paint her mural.
However, he doesn't close the freezer door well enough, and the next day the rotten meat stinks up the entire boutique.
A corrupt health inspector asks for an extremely high bribe to not close down the Clown Shop.
Feeling like Fred needs some days without his parents, he decides to go camping with GG, Fabienne and Benji.
The basketball team searches for Fred around the school and Penelope, Benji, Jody and Fabienne enter.
But they agree to make a pink party so GG will meet his new love interest, Fabienne's cousin Fatima.
GG convinces Fred to clean his room by telling him Anette needed a place to store her paintings.
Fabienne, trapped between Fred and GG and suffering their breaking up, must find a way to tie their friendship back to what it was before.
GG wins the U.S. president's underwear and decides to pimp up his old car with the auction profits.
Fred decides to organize a Halloween party, hoping Fabienne will invite Anette.
He also wishes Anemone Worynautto disappear... until one hour or so before the party, he sees her in the street, probably dead.
Nino also really wants to kiss a girl for the first time, so he never stops asking that to Madam Butterfly, who brought her spiritism game.
Also, after having eaten too many yogurts, Penelope is caught in Fred's bedroom during the party, with terrible farts.
However, because of a small problem, Mr. Julian fires Tamara... GG brings his younger brother Jojo to the café.
He likes it less when he becomes the herring mascot of the shop, and he smiles even less when he accidentally bumps into Tamara's mother... GG, falls in love with Jody's sister.
But a big mistake will result in a horrible style and a need for Jody to come back in the Trio.
Nino decides Fred is his friend for life, but GG is jealous and doesn't like it one bit.
After many remarks about the blonde jokes, Penelope turns her hair color to brown, and already feels smarter.
