Was playing around on another forum, just linked to an episode as a joke while making fun of a troll over there.

Now I'm wondering..does anyone else remember/like it?

From what I can figure, here's the pilot episode.

This is one of those wonderful cartoons that prove the lie that the art of animation is simply a diversion to entertain children..

Bonus link for Eek fans, here's a little Dutch bar band that replicates the shredding in the opening theme. EEK!

My wife and I had two cats around the time the show was on. A shinny male and a plus sized female. We would someitmes call them Eek and Annabelle.

Yeah. He sees the good in everyone..often to the point of disaster. "It never hurts to help!", he says, while everyone's taking advantage of him.

I forgot all about that show. I watched it into my early 20's. It's surprising how many cartoons have jokes for adults mixed in.

originally, cartoons were meant for adults, not kids. And remember watching EEK the cat long ago. Sat AM, along with the Sonic the Hedgehog. I also miss Tiny Toons and Animaniacs.

the best cartoons were made for an adult audience.. Foghorn Leghorn was a homophobic/racist/sexist piece of crap, but man was he ever funny..

That show was aparently after my time, now have to check it out. I always wondered what happened to Savage Steve Holland after his two masterpieces "Better off dead" and "One crazy summer"
