The Wacky World of Tex Avery (French: Le Monde fou de Tex Avery) is an American-French animated television series created by Robby London and co-produced by DIC Productions L.P., Les Studios Tex SARL, Milimetros, M6 Métropole Télévision and Telcima SA.
Both the series and the titular character were named after Tex Avery, a cartoonist who is known for his work at Warner Bros. and MGM. The creator describes the show as "homage to the brilliant, hilarious and groundbreaking animator Tex Avery and the wonderful squash-and-stretch cartoons of his era". The series was first broadcast on French channel M6 on September 3, 1997, followed on by its broadcast in the United States on September 29, through syndication where it mainly aired on Fox and UPN stations at the time.
Contents
Segments
The cartoon contains the following short series:
Tex Avery
The cartoon centers on a cowboy named Tex Avery who saves the day and his girlfriend, Chastity Knott, from his nemesis, Sagebrush Sid. He was inspired by Bob Clampett's (a fellow animator at Termite Terrace in the 1930s) Red Hot Ryder character from Buckaroo Bugs. The theme song is "Home on the Range". 33 segments
Pompeii Pete
Pete is a short bumbling Roman centurion from Pompeii who was buried in lava from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius and two thousand years later breaks free from his preserved state in the modern world. His goofy antics constantly foil the schemes of sleazy conman, Dan. The theme song is "Tarantella Napoletana". 29 segments
Einstone
The cartoon stars the brilliant caveman, Ughbert Einstone, who is the world's first inventor. He tries to teach his friends how to be civilized through the use of his inventions. Inspired by The First Bad Man, with Einstone's name being a play on Albert Einstein. The theme song is "If You're Happy and You Know It". 26 segments
Genghis and Khannie
Genghis the lion is a warlord who leads his barbarian army across the world to conquer in the name of his emperor and often crosses paths with a female panda cub named Khannie who tends to thwart his plans through her innocent behavior. The duo's names are a play on Genghis Khan, while Genghis's design is based on the lion from Slap Happy Lion with his voice modeled after Sean Connery and Khannie's mannerisms being influenced by Shirley Temple. 27 segments
Freddy the Fly
A playful, obnoxious, and uncultured fly named Freddy bothers an obese, lazy and exceedingly short-tempered billionaire named Amanda Banshee, whose continuous excessive attempts to get rid of him often involve the most extreme of ways. Freddy was inspired by both one of Tex Avery's earlier characters, Homer the Homeless Flea and comedian Red Skelton's character, Freddy the Freeloader. Freddy and Banshee each have their own themes; Beethoven (Freddy) and Vivaldi (Banshee). 26 segments
Maurice & Mooch
Maurice Squab outwits Mooch the Fox, who constantly tries to eat him. Maurice's design is based on the canary from King-Size Canary, with his personality influenced by Junior Pig from One Ham's Family. Its theme is "Home! Sweet Home!". 27 segments
Power Pooch
A normal dog gains superpowers after licking a superhero's shoe and becomes a superhero himself, albeit an incompetent one. Along with his cat sidekick, Little Buddy, Power Pooch fights the forces of evil, such as Dr. Hydrant and his henchman, Boney. Inspired by W. Watts Biggers and Joe Harris' Underdog. 27 segments
