Those Scurvy Rascals is a fun animated series for kids. It follows the adventures of three pirates who are really, really interested in underwear! The show first aired on Nickelodeon UK in May 2005. Now, you can watch it all over the world.
The main characters are Sissy Le Poop (who is sometimes called Jolly Roger), Smelly Pete, and Shark Bait. They also have a parrot named Polly! They all live on their ship, "The Soiled Pair." In every episode, they go on a new and exciting adventure. Blue-Zoo Productions created and produced the series.
The show starts with a cool opening sequence that shows their ship and introduces the characters. The theme song for the show goes like this:
- They sail upon the ocean from Jamaica to Penzance,
- but they don't want gold and they don't want treasure,
- they only want your pants!
- pants on the poop deck,
- pants in the hold,
- pants in the chest where there should be gold,
- pants in the crows nest,
- pants at sea,
- and a big pair of pants where the sail should be-
- those scurvy rascals!
