    It recently struck me how similar this show is to the Tom and Jerry cartoons from back in the day. I still like and enjoy it frequently, it was a great pass-time when I spent evenings with my family when I was a kid. Today it sometimes feels like I'm watching a Warner Bros. knock-off, but it is still colourful and charming. If you like Tom & Jerry slapstick comedy, you should find this entertaining too.

    This series is the worst ever cartoon series I have seen. In India on Cartoon Network, this show comes for almost 6 hours a day during prime viewing time for kids. But the language they are using is so bad, totally unclassified TAPORI language. These series are for kids, we want our kids to see those cartoons where they can see something good. These kids are so small that they get influenced with things they watch continuously. What this series shows is totally non sense. I can digest that non sense stuff as well but the language they are using is so bad that, I am sure that no parent out here in India would like their kids to hear that. Just imagine your son talks to you like that HEY MAMU, iski to watt lageli hai kind of things. We send them to top class schools so that they can improve on their language and moral skills but whatever they see in this series is really some rubbish stuff. Request you guys to change the quality of language being used in India to show this series.

    Oggy and the Cockroaches - Light in the night Today, when jap and other fighting cartoons took down the standard (that's level was originally set up by legendary classics) under the cellar this one gives hope and good amusement even over kid age. Yes, Oggy and the cockroaches is actionful as well, but a good and up-to-date remake of the traditional cat-mouse chase. Its visual ideas and sound effects affect absurd and may grotesque, but they run on the old tracks of Tommy and Jerry or such other cult. Incredible gags and burlesque-situations make this cartoon classic of its age. The Oggy series are maybe disliked by lot of cartoon viewers, and disinterested for kids. This is simply to explain: this cartoon needs lot of so-called previous studies. The viewer shall grown up on Tommy and Jerry and old chase-cartoons, and so feels Oggy a modern answer on them. A nice parallelism: you wont understand or enjoy the modern arts without knowing the classics. Knowing them gives a basement to build on and enjoy the new ideas and the absurd covers of old patterns. It is maybe paradox, but the viewer of this simple-like show must have erudition in patterns of traditional cartoons and films. Without these the viewer wont understand the incredible ideas, the grotesque art of the situations.Constantine Wolf critic, Hungary

    This is the best short-cartoons I ever seen! It´s raw and funny! Just hearing a conversation between Oggy and Jack always makes me scream of joy. Favourite episode must be Emergency Room, I can't stop laughing my hairy ass off! I want, no, I need this show on DVD!
