They are sometimes helped, sometimes hindered by the strange and mystical Jujus, magical beings with whom Tak has a bond. With computer-generated animation and top-notch voice talent (including Maurice LaMarche, John DiMaggio and Patrick Warburton), Tak is colorful, chaotic fun (8 p.m.-9 p.m., Nickelodeon).
