Production notes
Dive Olly Dive follows the adventures of Olly, a young submarine-in-training, and Beth, his best friend and fellow sub-in-training. Stationed at the Special Underwater Research Facility (S.U.R.F.) under the guidance of Diver Doug, the young subs explore their spectacular underwater world.
Joining Olly and Beth are Skid, Doug's sleek transport vehicle; Brandt, a cantankerous hermit crab who imagines himself as a pirate; UMA, an eight-appendaged Underwater Maintenance Assistant; Ranger, a tiny cowboy seahorse who wrangles his herd of squid; Shankley, the Scottish sea crane who spins tales of the deep seas; Suzy, the awesome aerobatic seas plane; and Luseal, the fun-loving, athletic seal.
Whether carrying out a research assignment for Diver Doug, playing in spectacular Lava Rock Park, or evading the dangers found in Dark Trench, there's never a dull moment in Olly's world.
3D CGI animation.
The first co-production between Flying Bark Productions (formerly known as Yoram Gross EM.TV) and Mike Young Productions.
The first full 3D production from Flying Bark Productions.
"We're intent on providing a world for children that stimulates their natural curiosity. Finding answers is not really the goal," said Mike Young, CEO of Mike Young Productions. "Stimulating interest and provoking more questions is what we're after here! In fact, a leading expert in early science education will work with us in the development of the series."
