Club Penguin Animated Shorts are short animated episodes made by Disney under Club Penguin. They air on YouTube and Disney XD. On rare occasion, Disney airs these shorts on their channels. So far, this is most common in Disney XD Latin America. It should also be noted that new episodes do not air often. They are first introduced in December 2011. This made more 'YouTube-ers' join Club Penguin. First, Club Penguin did not make videos, now Club Penguin made dozens of videos. Club Penguin's animated shorts make Club Penguin more famous. From normal pictures- to animated videos tells us that Disney is doing a great work. There are currently ten episodes, and they are all about two minutes long (excluding Save the Island). This is the first ever Club Penguin TV series, which has been quite an accomplishment since Disney bought Club Penguin.
Seasons and Episodes
Season One (December 3, 2011-Present)
Season one of the first ever Club Penguin series was aired for the first time on Club Penguin's YouTube channel on December 3, 2011, with Never Wake a Sleeping Sensei. The season finale is currently unknown. There have been ten episodes, five music videos and five regular episodes, since the time the first episode was uploaded. New episodes continue to air on Disney Channel and Disney XD, and on YouTube.
History
From very early on, Club Penguin had always wanted to make cartoons. They had some advertisements with no penguins talking, but they kept working at it. When Disney finally bought Club Penguin, they got the chance they had been waiting for. On December 3, 2011, the first episode aired, Never Wake a Sleeping Sensei.
The Animated Short episodes were proving to be very popular, and Club Penguin began to air Best Seat in the House in select movie theaters across the United States in Winter 2011, in the advertisements before PG movies. In July 2012, Club Penguin released their first song, The Party Starts Now, and began releasing more songs after that, with Animates Short episodes to accompany them.

Differences from Game
- The Stage shows movies instead of plays.
- There is a path to the Dojo with a cliff near it that leads to the Plaza.
- Penguins can text on their Elite Spy Phone. In Club Penguin, they can receive messages, but cannot send them.
- Franky is the singer of The Penguin Band, rather than the keyboardist. Although, Stompin' Bob is seen singing in Puffle Party (Gotta Have a Wingman), even though he is the guitarist.
Trivia
- This is the first ever Club Penguin show with new episodes.
- We get to hear Sensei, Herbert, Cadence, Rockhopper, Stompin' Bob & Franky's voice for the first time.
- In every episode so far, except for Save the Island, at the end a character somehow breaks the fourth wall.
- The Four Ninjas have appeared in 3 of 10 episodes. The Aqua Penguin has appeared in 3 of 10 episodes, as well.
- The episode Save the Island does not seem to be an episode of Club Penguin Shorts because it is not added to the playlist 'Club Penguin Shorts' in their Youtube channel. It is more like just a normal video uploaded by Club Penguin.
- The Three Penguins from Ghosts Just Wanna Dance may be some of The Four Ninjas or penguins from Save the Island.
- Polo Field and Businesmoose have a cameo in Cool In The Cold, and Happy77 has a cameo in The Party Starts Now.
- Many penguins think that this show will last for a few seasons before Club Penguin makes an actual TV series on Disney Channel and Disney XD, with normal 22 minute episodes.
