The 10 six to nine-minute live action appisodes of Totally Amp’d tell the story of five talented teenagers who come together in the hopes of becoming the next big pop group. When XMP! Music announces a contest for a new band to win a spot opening for pop sensation Charlie Fever, the label’s savvy receptionist-turned-manager, Zoe (Ashley Leggat), taps a group of teens to form the band Totally Amp’d to bring home the prize—and show up her arrogant boss. Through the course of the series, Zoe and her handpicked crew navigate the rocky—and hilarious—road to fame while trying to make their dreams come true.
