5 Forgotten TV Shows Part 22 - More Obscure Shows

[@michaelpenirelli9003]

Can't speak for everyone else but personally I really don't care how popular or obscure any of these or other shows were, I just love the channel and all your videos. Good job 👍

[@793ism]

Right. Keep doing what you doing

[@pathutchison7688]

Well said, sir. You took the words right out of my mouth. I watch to hear Cecil talk about films and TV. That is what’s important to me.

[@supastar25]

Same here

[@donkeyshow7235]

I, for one, enjoy learning about things I never knew existed or have just completely forgotten about.

[@alexdgonc]

I totally agree! Thanks for letting me relieve some of my childhood memories :)

[@vgtrp]

I don’t care how obscure the shows you cover are, it’s always enjoyable to see you cover shows not a lot of people talk about.

[@Malpertui87]

Cecil, ignore complainers! Love your dedication. You could make videos about Barbie and Avengers, but instead you are doing something special. Thank you and keep up good work

[@OmegaII]

Agreed, The thing about obscure TV shows are that any TV show that is truly obscure pre-90s wont have nearly any trace to find short of personal memories. So anything Cecil will post here will be known by some people here, heck especially here given the subject matter of his other videos.

[@tskmaster3837]

Yakov Smirnoff was great on Night Court where he played reoccurring character... Yakov. Right up there with Brent Spiner who played reoccurring character... Bob. Yakov was from Russia and Bob was from... Yugoslavia. Night Court! What a show!

[@n.d.m.515]

I used to enjoy watching Night Court as a teenager. Tried to watch it now as an adult and ended up disgusted. Too much preteen potty humor.

[@darrenwright9619]

I remember watching Otherworld on Saturday mornings in the UK. I loved the show and was pissed off when it just stopped being shown. I’m happy to see you guys cover it 👍🏼

[@mrmrgaming]

Yeah, that's where I saw it.

[@poleaxed6447]

Same here.

[@sherlockwho5714]

I saw it but not live I stumbled across it looking for sci-fi shows online

[@allnamesaretakenful]

I watched it when I was 7 in South Dakota. I always liked it.

[@wardragonprime]

I liked Otherworld.

[@MegaMagicdog]

I definitely remember "What A Country!". I liked Yakov Smirnoff although once the Soviet Union came unglued, much of his schtick was considered old hat. I remember him also as a recurring character on Night Court playing a Russian immigrant who befriends Judge Harry Stone. Loved Otherworld! I watched it when it was first run and it had so much potential! I was really disappointed it didn't last more than a season. I remember the actor who played son "Trace" ended up on Head of The Class (as preppy genius Alan Pinkus) not long after the show ended. I had heard of Dog and Cat but never saw it. Obviously I didn't miss much.

[@YokRzeznic]

Now I get a particular Dr. Nick joke from The Simpsons.

[@DJ_Macphisto]

Magnets for the tray tables, fake candles and vegetable medley. Nothing but the best at Yakov's Dinner Adventure.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

lol!

[@dicegeeks]

Otherworld was great. I was so sad when it was cancelled. I loved the Zone Troopers and all the world-building that was put into the show.

[@beast13284]

Otherworld was great, the different zones or city states, gave each episode a unique flavor. The cast was great, particularly Johnna Lee as the daughter. I loved this, but thought I dreamed it! CBS only aired 8 of 13, never giving the show a chance. I highly recommend seeking it out. Thanks Cecil

[@theblocksays]

Kinda get a Sliders vibe off it.

[@cpl.barbarusc4814]

Weird too see that Otherworld wasn't very popular, but I think It might hit better today for 2 mayor things. 1: We are on a time where most shows and movies tap into the concept of an alternate universe. And 2: I has the actor that played Mike" Freakin" Hermatraut from Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul as the main villain.

[@parisgreen4600]

Yes, I recall the title but I don't think I ever saw the show. Jonathan Banks! Love that guy.

[@Madbandit77]

​@@parisgreen4600 I loved him on "Wiseguy", a TV series that doesn't get enough love as it should.

[@parisgreen4600]

@@Madbandit77 That was a great series - Stephen Cannell helped launch so many interesting actors on his various shows. It's really fun to see Banks getting so much appreciation now.

[@Madbandit77]

​@@parisgreen4600 Too true. I miss him for being a tenacious TV writer/producer who had fun working.

[@number3fac]

I was a huge sci-fi nerd in my youth, & would tune in to anything with a sci-fi premise. I do remember Otherworld's basic premise & that the family was constantly on the run & adapting to different circumstances in each territory while the officer pursuing them had less success...but that's about all I recall, I'd forgotten that the show's name was one word (I'd thought it was "The Other World" for the longest time). Great to see you cover it here!

[@girlyghoul]

AHH! Jonathan Banks as Commander Krull! Glad he finally got on some great long lasting shows eventually. Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul won't wind up on any "Obscure Shows You've Never Seen" Lists anytime soon!

[@PictureProductStudio]

Banks also landed a big role on TV back in the 1980's with "Wiseguy". Interestingly enough, Dean Norris who was also on "Breaking Bad" and "Better Call Saul" got inspired to go into acting by seeing Banks in the series and thinking "well, they need all kinds of people".

[@williamblakehall5566]

Hey, I remember Otherworld as well as Dog and Cat -- but yeah, they were obscure. I recall a female chauvinism episode of Otherworld, and an attempted Playboy style write-up of Krull was "I like to shout and shoot." As for Dog and Cat, Antonio loved to say "Zilch" and when he had to say goodbye to an old flame, Basinger tried to cheer him up with a hamburger with lots of onions. Now those were the days when they appreciated writing.

[@jasperfen3754]

I remember Otherworld! Have not thought of it for decades. The rest of these I have never heard of. I really appreciate this series.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

:)

[@kri249]

Since I was an 80s kid I can understand why I never even heard of Chopper squad. Being a 70s show reruns were probably aired late at night past my bedtime. But browsing through the comments it made me laugh that the only people familiar with it are Brits, given their reputation of being obsessed with classic Aussie soaps and dramas. Also, after recently looking into the controversy surrounding Dan Schneider that feet reference cracked me up.

[@Sketch105]

I love when you do insert shows I’m vaguely familiar with..it’s a reward for watching while learning about things I didn’t know. I feel the pop culture landscape tends to bury a lot of shows despite them airing and being seen by a large audience, so many shows have been forgotten from a stand point, even if singularly people may remember them. For example, when you think of TGIF, everyone mentions Family Matters or Step by Step, but no one mentions Hanging with Mr. Cooper in the same breath; or when people talk about Must See TV they talk Friends or Seinfeld, but forget Caroline in the City, the Single Guy, or Boston Common.

[@harr77]

In Soviet Russia, obscure tv show watches you.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

ha!

[@christraven]

I have vague, vague memories of Otherworld, and talking about it in school after each episode. You keep killing it with the nostalgia-bait on this series, man.

[@redbeard36]

I remember liking Otherworld. It was a few years too soon. It could have been a decent streaming service show with better writing and actors. I swear, by coincidence, I recently watched the pilot episode of Chopper Squad. At least as much of it as I could stand.

[@sneakyskunk1]

These are always a ton of fun. They also help me to rediscover some of the more obscure television I have filed away in my head. This video was no exception. I had been trying for years to figure out what Other World was and thanks to GBF I finally know. Thanks GBF!

[@DeathRobotKailozo]

Your lists are dope. I’m sure those comments don’t speak for us normies who don’t remember every show in tv history. You’re doing some cool stuff here, uncovering things I’ve completely forgotten about. It’s a great nostalgia hit and I thank you kindly.

[@lewissmith8743]

Thank you for the review. Some I do remember other shows were new to me. You do a great job bringing back memories from my childhood growing up. A show to add to your next video, Demsey and Make peace. Not sure of the spelling, it was about a tough cop who goes to England for some reason and is paired with a beautiful British female police officer. 1980's, in that decade. Thanks again.

[@docrotwang2548]

Dude! I used to watch "Otherworld" in Mexico City back in, like, '86, '87. A delight to see it get some love!

[@DeltaDemon1]

Keep em coming. Just because some people know a few of the shows does not mean they aren't obscure or of interest.

[@ericteneyck246]

Thank you for these. These are very nostalgic for me. Have u ever thought about doing a cartoon version. There are so many cartoons out there from the 80’s and 90’s. Thank you for the content

[@wouterl5316]

Ooh! I Remember Otherworld. It was aired here as well. I liked it as a kid. Regretted it was so short.

[@Talowolf]

Well, I'll say congratulations. This is the first time I've not recognized ANY of the shows on the list. It surprised the heck out of me that I never heard of the Yakov show, because I was an 80s kid and that guy really was everywhere for a while.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

:)

[@mattgamer100]

Personally, I’ve never heard of any of these shows, but it is a good reminder that they existed at some point. Thanks for taking us through memory lane.

[@bigsarge2085]

Dang! Truly obscure. I've heard of Yakov's stuff, though I never watched it. The rest of these shows I never knew about.

[@doublep1980]

Wait, Matthew Perry was in a Sitcom together with Dan "Get her in the van" Schneider?! DAFUQ?!

[@passenger6x3]

I have been telling people about otherworld since it first air.. problem was I couldn't remember the name of it. I enjoyed the whole concept... THANK YOU for helping me not feel insane anymore :D

[@stillhuntre55]

I am LOVING this series! Chopper Squad reminded me of a shortlived series I loved: Dolphin Cove! And Otherworld made me think of The Phoenix for some reason. Thanks for letting us know where we can view these as well!

[@AubreyTheKing]

I love it when you talk about obscure movies and TV shows that most people never heard of! These videos are awesome! Keep going!

[@savedbythebelldeepdives]

I'm amazed every time you mention a show being a part of the TGIF block, as I never remember seeing any of them.

[@BeckyLStoutWriter]

Ya know, watching this Forgotten Shows series reminds of how an idea can be interesting but the execution is not so great. I often wonder why they don't find shows or movies in that category when they decide to do remakes. I mean, I would certainly watch a Chopper Squad movie with Chris Hemsworth and Hugh Jackman! 😄

[@Musematt11]

I'd prefer that too, but unfortunately the whole reason for the flood of mediocre remakes is that studio/network execs expect easy money with previously successful IPs. At least we somehow got Carpenter's "The Thing", the Karl Urban "Dredd" film, and the current Dune movies.

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

Same thing happens in the music industry. "Once a hit, always a hit"

[@floydlooney6837]

They kept giving Paul Rodriguez different shows but they never stuck

[@travisshallenberger9486]

OH SNAP! I was wondering when you would get to Otherworld. I had watched the original run back in '85, but had no idea of it's heavy syndication. It's wild to see this here today because just the other day I was thinking about the episode where the kids sang old songs from Earth and the people of the new world flipped because they had never heard rock & roll. Weird the way things line up. I gotta say, though, Chopper Squad sounds like a title of a fictional show they would use in another show. Sitcom main star: "You don't recognize her?! She's the actress from Chopper Squad!" Sitcom sidekick: "Oh wow! She got to kiss Butch Deadlift!" Cue laugh track

[@woolybowly4205]

Some how I remember "what a country" from when I was 7. Guaranteed I wouldn't have without this channel. Of not obscure to others, it was obscured in my mind

[@lancebuttox9637]

Love whatever shows or movies you cover, look forward to your next video

[@walkerpantera]

DONT let anyone whos not paying you tell you how to do this. the shows you find for this series are very interesting to hear about whether ive heard of it or not. its the details you present that make this series interesting. keep it up Bobo!!

[@Nikademus1969]

I like how you are shining a light on a lot of these shows. Some I remember clearly, some I remember vaguely, some I don't remember at all but am intrigued enough to want to hunt them down.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

There is a lot of material/entertainment out there and people don't need to rely on everything that is brand new!

[@The-Man-On-The-Mountain]

I am 46 now. I've been absolutely obssesed with Otherworld most of my life because it was one of those shows that I watched as a little kid, but they only aired it once. The internet didn't exist and none of my friends remembered it. I found it again in some forum in the first 2010s, describing the show, and someone provided me some download links, you know... It was one of those times when you think, "holy sht the time has really passed for this crap!" lol. But it still has got its charm to me, like other crapy shows like Logan's Run. PS: the 80's, an era where every show had to have a wild west and/or pop-rock music episode lol.

[@christiancampagna2229]

I remember "Otherworld" very well. It was one of the many obscure Sci-Fi shows I used to watch during the 80's. Such as Highway Man, Manimal, Misfits Of Science, Hard Time On Planet Earth, Phoenix, Something Is Out There and Mann & Machine. There are probably many more I can't remember.

[@wayneoneill5265]

People are complaining about the content you put out? Don’t listen to them please, your videos are excellent. I’ve watched a lot of obscure and forgotten movies and shows because of your spotlighting them. Keep doing what you want it’s why I keep watching!

[@GoodBadFlicks]

I appreciate that! :)

[@matthewsirois3705]

Ok. You did it! You found 3 shows I’ve actually never heard of before. Home Free, Dog & Cat and Chopper Squad were completely unknown to me before this video

[@markw.loughton6786]

even if I've seen the occasional show, it doesn't matter, I love these "Forgotten TV shows" videos. Lots of nostalgia, lots of surprises. So keep up the good work. :)

[@TheUluxian]

There's another show floating around called "Riverworld" that has a similar premise as "Otherworld". Both of them, unfortunately , ended before their time. Otherworld also had a predecessor "The Fantastic Journey" back in the 70s that was also a personal fav of mine.

[@XopheAdethri]

I have to agree, most forgotten shows you exhibit are fondly remembered by me. But I'm just satisfied that someone else remembers these, cause I rarely had friends that liked all the TV I liked as a teen. They definitely have forgotten them if they even had enough memory to forget.

[@GromMolotok]

I was a huge Yakof Smirnoff fan back in the day. And yet I can only remember what I think are bits from two separate episodes. One had something to do with a limo, and the other was one of the students proudly stating she's from Guatemala, to the chagrin of her status-hungry American boyfriend. The other four? I got nothing.

[@goblinoidfilms7119]

I caught about half of Otherworld as a kid before the family decided to watch something else. Just caught the whole series here on YT and enjoyed all right.

[@stevigrega]

I used to like What A Country, but had completely forgotten it. I don't think I'd have ever remembered it without this video.

[@AJ82778]

Bocce Balls! If you hadn't shown a clip of Dog & Cat, my brain would have kept it safely hidden away in the "might need this later for trivia night" folder. Holy cow!! My dad loved that show. I think I was only 7 or 8 when it was on, but as soon as I saw a few clips, my brain went full "Hey! I know you can't remember what you had for dinner 47 minutes ago, but here's a vivid memory of you sitting on the couch with a cup of Kool Aid, an 18" GI Joe action figure and your Dad totally engrossed in THIS show??"

[@PaulDozierZZoMBiE13]

Wow. I think this was the first time you have a complete list and I hadn't heard of at least one of the shows. But I am older and watched a lot of TV when I was growing up, so I've seen and remember a lot of stuff that the average viewer likely wouldn't. Good list, man. Thanks.

[@DarthArachnious]

You're right, I had no idea there was an American version of Mind Your Language. That's a favorite British sitcom of a friend who loves vintage television.

[@KnowBuddiesLP]

Omg thank you! I remembered the "meat" cans from otherworld for years but no clue where it came from! Keep it up! Appreciate you!

[@briang9581]

It might be that this channel attracts an audience that by its nature seeks out the obscure and forgotten. Still, it is also nice to have a guide. Keep up the great work.

[@rev68]

You got me with Otherworld. I'm guessing I never heard of it because it had such a short run on CBS (one of only 4 channels we had until the mid 90s) and I didn't have USA Channel or SciFi until almost the 2000s.

[@AtomJebus]

It's always interesting to see what people consider obscure. I only knew two from the last one, but I've seen every one on this but Cat & Dog, lol! Keep up the good work dude, and thanks for the great content!

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks for watching!

[@w336o4]

Absolutely love these videos. I love the history of old failed TV shows. I'm from the UK so it's all obscure to me!

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks!

[@GregInHouston2]

I loved What a Country! And Yakov. He was in Houston many years ago and I went to the comedy club specifically to see him. I've never done that before.

[@beebomcgroober9316]

That plot synopsis for Otherworld sounds remarkably similar to Farscape.

[@Madbandit77]

If Farscape came out in the 80s, it would have ended up on this list. Thank God it didn't.

[@justintoner9817]

The only show of this group I have heard of before is What a Country, thanks to you Cecil ;-) I enjoy these videos very much. There was some interesting shows that didnt get a chance and were gone before they could find an audience. Keep em coming!

[@DistantThunderworksLLC]

Otherworld was awesome! Was so disappointed when it was cancelled. Same with Shadow Chasers around that same timeframe. Both are quite obscure.

[@Mattteus]

Wow, right off the bat with two shows I remember: What A Country and Mind Your Language. I think that says more about me than their obscurity.

[@Xayjohns]

I literally spent all day yesterday binging these videos, and subscribed. I love stuff like this.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks for the sub!

[@Kate-yv2or]

I watched Otherworld every week. Loved it. I was so disappointed when it was canceled.

[@drdarkeny]

I think you pretty much nailed obscurity this time - the only two shows I remember are OTHERWORLD and DOG AND CAT. OTHERWORLD was a science-fiction show, and at that point in time my then girlfriend, and I watched pretty much everything with science-fiction on television. DOG AND CAT I remember mostly because when I started seeing Kim Basinger show up in other roles, I was like "Her? Her acting stinks!" Also, a friend and I came up with a comedy sketch called "RAT AND WEASEL", based very loosely on the show.

[@OldMan_PJ]

Good job, I don't remember a single one of these although I loved Yakov and might have seen that show it didn't spark any memories of it.

[@simonmacomber7466]

I'm familiar with _two_ of these. The first two, in fact. Or, three, if you include the British sitcom that inspired the American version. But you are very right, these shows, all of them, are very obscure. I like that you are covering them, obscure or not, because _no_ media should ever be lost.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks!

[@anthonystrocks247]

CECIL, forget the complainers! Every time you do these, it's a BLAST!

[@impofstpete727]

I would like to offer a suggestion for possible future content: The strange history of Saved By the Bell. Knowing both how it started and some of the weird things that happened later on it's a prime example of how syndication can revive a program as well as what happens when networks meddle with a show too much.

[@Wyrmwould]

The only one of these that I remember is Otherworld, but the only episode I remember is the one where the kids form a band and pretend to have written exisiting pop music from earth. A few years ago when that movie Yesterday came out where the guy pretended to have written the Beatles music, I said: Hey, that's like that episode of Otherworld! But no one had any idea what I was talking about.

[@deanfranz]

YAKOV'S DINNER ADVENTURE, with magnetic trays! Also, screw those people who go "tHeY'Re NoT oBsCuRe tO mE!1!" You do you, dude ... keep making great videos!

[@n.d.m.515]

Just remember, someone had to have seen these shows so forgotten is in the eye of the beholder. I define it as no one talks about them and 9 out of 10 times it wouldn't be recognized. This is the first time I didn't recognize any.

[@stormcrow28]

I remember Otherworld. That would have been a great show nowadays or even in the 90s/early 2000s. It was probably too radical an idea for the 80s.

[@cosmicorder2]

I thought that was Patrick Mcgoohan in the thumbnail at first. I was eager to see what on earth could there be out there that he did that I need to see that I haven't seen already. As you can tell, I am a fan of The Prisoner. It turns out that it was not him. Oh well! I like learning learning about the stories behind these obscure TV shows. It is really rare that I recognize some of these series and I can't help mention that I remember one of your shows being advertised on television. Keep up the Good work!

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

"I AM NOT A NUMBER I AM A FREE MAN!"

[@Steve_P_B]

Chopper Squad is very well known and fondly remembered in Australia as is similar Aussie shows such as Patrol Boat and Police Rescue.

[@gregoryvn3]

Definitely obscure. I think I tripped over What a County and Otherworld while flipping through basic cable back in the day, had completely forgotten they existed.

[@deswynne8172]

Here in the UK only 2 shows I remember were shown, Chopper Squad (which was shown on ITV late at night 11:35) & Dog & Cat also on ITV but shown at 8pm, I always wondered why it was a short run so thank you Cecil for the info. ITV had a bad habit of showing US imports but always dropping them after a number of episodes.

[@gothichomemaker9511]

Every one of these lists makes me question how I watched so many TV shows in my youth because without fail, you cover some sitcom I watched as a kid, like What a Country.

[@mikekz4489]

I never knew Yakov Smirnoff had a sitcom. I only remember him on TV from his appearances on Night Court. Otherworld sounds interesting. I probably would’ve watched it had it started in 1989-90.

[@tstockel]

Who the heck takes the time to complain about your videos? Are the upset they lost ten minutes of their lives? Yes, I've seen some of those shows, or heard of them. But often I forget they existed until you remind me. Love your videos!

[@TheStrykerProject]

Definitely obscure shows, for sure! I maybe knew of/saw Mind Your Language...but probably the comedian instead of his show. Now that Cecil's dusted these off, they'll probably STILL go back to and remain forgotten! 😆

[@bokodasu]

As soon as you said "what a country" I went, oh, the Yakoff Smirnoff vehicle? In my lifetime we've gone from "if it's on tv you watch it" to "I literally could not tell you a single show on network tv today". For real, you could put out an "obscure shows" that's just the current Thursday lineup and I'd be mystified.

[@kri249]

Hey Cecil by any chance have you ever come across a TV show about a bald psychic woman set in a post apocalyptic or dystopian future, possibly from the 70s, while researching have you? I caught the end of an episode once when I was younger and can't for the life of me find out what it's called. I originally thought it might have been that Star trek: Second phase until I learned it never got produced. It's been a mystery ever since but figured you'd be the go to guy for something like this.

[@danielrickard5999]

I will tell you something I enjoy everything you put on here keep up the good work

[@surrealkit4843]

Someone remembers everything. Especially people who watch videos about forgotten shows.

[@Scatscar1985]

"Chopper Squad" was very popular in the UK.

[@heidifedor]

I do remember What a Country and Other World. Norman Lear tried to make an American version of Mind Your Language before that. It was in the form of a back door pilot on an episode of Diff’rent Strokes.

[@Warstub]

I can honestly say that I don't recall any of these appearing on New Zealand screens - not even Chopper Squad from our neighbours! 😄

[@karenford9797]

I fondly remember Dog and Cat, it was on Saturday nights after Starsky & Hutch. Loved her souped up VW Beetle!

[@JenMistress]

I will agree with your closing statement, as yes, I am familiar with one of the shows, What A Country, and about it being obscure as well. Only reason I'm familiar with it is because dad had a few episodes on VHS he taped off of TV. So I will say, good job there. 😉 And thank you, did enjoy this.

[@christophertheriault3308]

I was actually expecting Otherworld to show up earlier in the list of shows that was Sci-Fi specific. I remember enjoying it when it aired. Given how big a deal it is to even get a show produced I'm always amazed at how quick networks are to cancel stuff before they even air what they filmed.

[@timmer919hep]

i love this series. I usually have never heard of any of the shows featured.

[@bibiijaz6238]

I love this series! Thank you so much for the content!

[@holdingpattern245]

Lou Antonio as the half-black half-white alien who wasn't Frank Gorshin, that's like being the guy from Bosom Buddies who wasn't Tom Hanks.

[@legomech1946]

Well, I admit I am not familiar with these particular shows, even if I know some of the actors. I also admit normally there is at least one "Wow, I forgot I watched that!" moment in your usual Forgotten Shows videos that gets me excited, so don't listen to the haters. The whole point is that I forgot I watched Relic Hunter when it was out and was inspired to stream the old episodes, or that I knew that a show was based on a character from the Ultraverse because I read those comics back in the day. That's the joy of this series, so please keep it going and thank you!

[@theOneOnlyTed]

What a Country would be a great sitcom for today

[@alienboy1322]

Some potential for a reboot.

[@RabbiJoeInJerusalem]

Oh, I remember What a Country! My uncle, who used to write for The Tonight Show, knows Yakov.

[@jacquelinecallejas1390]

I enjoyed this. FYI I knew 4 out of the 5 shows and was a fan of Otherworld. I may go down memory lane soon. I remember some dumb facts about Dog and Cat like Kim's character drove a VW Beetle but she'd put a race car engine in it (I think a Ferari's) so it went really fast. The only one I'd never heard of was the Australian predecessor of Bay Watch.

[@Filmation77]

I saw "What a Country" at the Height of Yakov's Fame (Ben Stiller did a skit about Yakov's Fall from Grace in Pop Culture on his "The Ben Stiller Show") and i READ about "Dog and Cat" in some book about Television series when i was a kid in the 80's
