Max & Shred is a sitcom that first premiered on Nickelodeon in the United States on October 6, 2014. The first season had 26 episodes.
Alvin is jealous of Max's corporate sponsorship deals. Abby signs Alvin up for a sponsorship deal with a foreign computer company, but the laptop computer that Alvin has to promote is poorly built and prone to overheating, and the company threatens to take $5 million from him if he backs out of the deal.
Alvin and Max must take care of a fake baby for a school project. Abby, who wants to babysit so she can save enough money to buy a convertible car, takes the baby around town to demonstrate to parents that she can be responsible. When Alvin and Max find Abby, they fight for the baby and accidentally tear it apart, an incident that is caught on video by several bystanders. Although Alvin and Max manage to put the baby back together, their teacher reveals to them an online video of the baby being torn apart. However, he passes them because they worked together to reassemble the baby.
Max and Alvin become the leaders of a group of Junior Porcupine scouts, and plan to take them on a camping trip. Max disagrees with Alvin's idea of bringing technology on the trip, so the scouts are split into two teams: one led by Max and the other led by Alvin. Both teams are upset with their leader after problematic camping experiences, but they later have a fun time indoors. Meanwhile, Abby gets a job as the Yogurt Yeti's mascot and must greet customers while dressed in a yeti costume.
Max is criticized by some online fans for playing with teddy bears and having tea parties with Howie, so his agent hires an image consultant to give Max a tough bad boy makeover. Max's agent also forbids him from spending time with Howie. Max ultimately decides to be himself and befriends Howie again. Abby, who will be attending college soon, is upset that she and Alvin have no happy memories together and wants to fill her photo album with pictures of them doing fun activities. Abby and Alvin initially suffer mishaps during their activities, but they eventually realize that they still had fun together.
