Pier Pals

Pier Pals is an American-Canadian-Chinese animated series created by Miles Simerlink and Doug Langdale for Nickelodeon.

Plot
The series follows four middle-school-aged children, Torrance Ferrarri is an fun-loving and humourous Italian-American boy, Isla Thomson is a tomboyish and hotheaded Scottish-American girl, Terrell Rice is a self-absorbed and fashion-conscious African-American boy, and Naomi Katsufrakis is an intellectual and bibliophic Jewish-American girl who has both Greek and Ukrainian heritage.

Every episode is set over the course of a weekend, with little to no mentions of school life. Friday sets up the conflict of the episode, Saturday escalates and develops it, and the climatic third act happens on Sunday. The implied "ticking clock" is used to signify the characters running out of time and the problem must be solved before going back to school Monday.

Torrance serves as a narrator of each episode, providing his own insight into what he's experiencing as well as his friends, and will sum up the moral of the story at the end, always ending with a sign off of, "Later days."

A running gag in each episode is that when the group goes out for pizza, the restaurant they go to has a different theme each time, such as a prison, where each table is its own cell, or the American Revolution, where the waiters look like the Founding Fathers and give rousing speeches about the pizzas.
