About the Show
Inch High is a tiny detective, only one inch tall! He became so small because of a secret shrinking potion. Inch often needs help from his niece Lori, her strong friend Gator, and their dog Braveheart. Together, they solve many mysteries.
Their special car is called the Hushmobile. It's a sleek car that makes almost no sound when it drives. This makes it perfect for following bad guys without being noticed. Inch works for The Finkerton Detective Agency. His boss, Mr. Finkerton, often wishes he could fire Inch. Unlike many other Hanna-Barbera mystery cartoons, the characters in this show are not teenagers.
