"Zak Storm" tells of the adventures of Zak Storm – a headstrong and adventurous kid swept into the Bermuda Triangle while trying to win a surfing competition. Once inside, Zak partners up with a magical sword that allows him to transform into a swashbuckling, renegade hero to face the numerous perils of the unique and diverse Seven Seas of the Triangle.

Trivia[]
- According to the September 2017 highlights from Discovery Family's press release website, the first season was originally going to premiere on September 16, 2017, on the channel.[4]
- In the US, Discovery Family split the season into three parts.
- In some countries, when being broadcasted on TV, the episode length has to be shortened to 22 minutes.
- In Indonesia, the show is listed on the MNCTV awards program "Mom and Kid Award Indonesia 2021" for the Animation category, and gets nominees. [5]
- According to a PDF document on the official Method Animation website, this season had a budget of €10,384,000 ($10,850,812.72 USD).[6]
- This season has a few story arcs that start or progress throughout the entirety of the season. These include:
- The Seven Cs' Story Arc (main seasonal arc):
- The Seven Cs travel around the Bermuda Triangle and explore the individual seas before unlocking the seven waypoints so they can all get home. They opened the waypoints in the following order: Aeria in "Eye of the Cyclone", Sino in "Thermal Shock", Blazz in "Trial by Fire", Dezer in "Calabrass' Body", Zite in "Between Stars", Beru in "Zak's Choice", and Vapir in "The Last Guardian".
- Zak's Story Arc:
- At the beginning of the season/series, Zak got trapped inside the Bermuda Triangle where he found his own pirate crew known as the Seven Cs. Zak's arc involves him learning how to avoid being reckless and impatient so he could instead become a responsible leader for his crew while at the same time learning new information about the Bermuda Triangle so they can all get home. This is evident in "Morlock the Unstoppable", "Troll Diving", "Eye of the Cyclone", "Burn Out", "The Wiseman", and "Zak's Choice".
- Calabrass's Story Arc:
- Calabrass's arc involves him learning how to accept himself as his own person rather than being viewed as just a sword, as evident in "A Jellyfish of Legend", "Calabrass' Body", and "Calabrass' Old Friend". In addition, there are some episodes that focus on his past before he got transformed into a sword, such as "Forged in Fire" and "Calabrass' Old Friend".
- Caramba's Story Arcs:
- As the season progresses, Caramba changed from being a coward to instead becoming more courageous, with episodes such as "Witch Overboard", "The Voice of Chaos", and "The Seas Seven", focusing on him learning how to be brave.
- There's also a short mini-arc that focuses on him wanting to look for a friend who shares the same level of intelligence as him. He initially befriended a robot Harma in "The Bermuda Apocalypse" but Harma's lack of understanding empathy and friendship almost lead to the destruction of the Sea of Beru, and Harma later sacrificed himself to save everyone after realizing the error of his way. It wasn't until "The Last Flight of Icarus" that Caramba befriends Carlito Raimondi whom the latter genuinely accepts their friendship, making Carlito a new ally to the crew.
- Clovis's Story Arc:
- Clovis's arc involves him knowing how his childish behavior and pranks can sometimes prevent his crew from taking him seriously and he learns how to become responsible so he can watch over the Chaos while the rest of the crew are away, as seen in "Forged in Fire", "The Swap", and "Island of the Lost Children".
- Carlito's Story Arc:
- Carlito's arc involves him being captured by Skullivar where he was forced to build a machine and the Eye of Netherwhere for him. This is shown in "Escape from Netherwhere", "Wrath of Blix", "The Lost Orb", and "The Last Guardian". The season ends with him being rescued by the Seven Cs and is free from Skullivar's rule after the latter was defeated.
- Skullivar's Story Arc:
- Skullivar's arc begins with him wanting Golden Bones to steal Calabrass from the Seven Cs so he could use him for evil purposes after Zak's arrival with the Eye of Beru in "Origins Part 1". Throughout the season, he used different methods to wreak havoc in the Bermuda Triangle and/or steal Calabrass, as seen in "Morlock the Unstoppable", "The Seas Seven", and "Wrath of Blix". Eventually, it culminates in "The Lost Orb" when one of his henchmen Carver successfully stole Calabrass from the Seven Cs and held him hostage in "The Last Guardian".
- Golden Bones' Story Arc:
- As Golden Bones and his skeleton army constantly getting defeated by the Seven Cs continue, he is starting to be viewed as a failure in Skullivar's eyes for being incapable of capturing Calabrass for him. Some episodes would focus on Golden Bones wanting to prove his worth as Skullivar's general, as evident in "Escape from Netherwhere" and "Trial by Fire". During his arc, he becomes more ruthless and cruel towards his own army which leads to some of them betraying him and Skullivar in "Mutiny on the Demoniac" following Calico's escape. Eventually, everything culminates in "The Lost Orb" when Skullivar replaced Golden Bones with Carver as the new general after having enough of his failures and Carver managed to successfully obtain Calabrass instead of him.
- The Seven Cs' Story Arc (main seasonal arc):
- As of 2020, Zak Storm is no longer available to watch on Netflix in the USA.
- Due to broadcasting issues, "Trial by Fire" was aired before "Burn Out", "Thermal Shock", and "Eye of the Cyclone".
