Welcome back, folks! I hope everyone is well. Today, we’re going to take a look at Oggy and the Cockroaches.
This cartoon has been going off and on for the past 20 years, starting in 1998. With no dialogue, it’s been aired in much of the world, through two production companies over its lifetime.
The TL:DR of the show is that Oggy, the title character, is constantly having his life screwed with by three cockroaches named Joey, Marky, and Dee Dee, who are all incidentally named after members of the Ramones. The bulk of each episode is basically Oggy dealing with the little bastards so he can actually get something done, even if it’s just relaxing.
Also of note is Jack, Oggy’s cousin, who is ill-tempered, arrogant, and easy to piss off. In other words, an ideal target for the roaches.
Also, the show’s intro is a total ear-worm; you’ll never un-hear it.
Just two sets today, as the second one is pretty massive.
OK, first set today is from Season 2’s ‘Golf Curse’.
The owners might wanna check their water traps…
The second set comes from season 3’s ‘SCUBA Diving’. Catchy.
Clearly Jack is the more talented of the two here…
…but clearly the least lucky.
Clearly, it just wanted a hug.
And enter the cockroaches.
Why, no, we can’t have one of these large sets without angering the wildlife.
And cue the chase sequence!
And thus ends the set on something of a down note for the boys. I hope you all enjoyed this, and there will be a part 2 in the future!
