Remembering Eek the Cat



This Cartoon began in 1992 and ran for 5 seasons! Created by Bill Copp and Savage Steve Holland. I remember watching this show nearly Every day. Eventually it changed it's title to "EekStarvagansa" To include The Terrible Thunder Lizards and also Clutter.

The Show was animated for Fox Kids, by Nelvana. I remember The incredible Elmo and his Always sick little brother Timmy. Elmo would always trick Eek into doing whatever death defying stunt he was supposed to do, right after Eek would explain how it all could go horribly wrong. There was a lot of CANADIAN humor in this show.

Also, Gotta Love Sharky The Sharkdog.



The Terrible Thunder Lizards were great. Doc was like Schwarzenegger, Cutter was like Bill Paxton and Rex was just stupid. The Whole idea of that part of the show was to kill the Humans before their sheer stupidity made the dinosaurs extinct.

I also Remember quite the controversy over the two cavemen Scooter and Bill.

Fatboy Slim: Scooter n Bill by *thweatted on deviantART
The Controversy was that They were the first Humans. I remember that a lot of Christian groups got upset that there were no female Humans. But After you got to know Bill and Scooter They eventually introduced some girls, so the controversy was resolved.

Now the Weak point. In my opinion was Klutter. Klutter was a mess made by the Heap bros. It came to life some how, and acting like a dog most of the time. It wasn't that great. The Klutter segment was introduced in Season 4. That's all I care to remember it so... I guess that's all for this entry.

Peace kids!
