I watched Danger Mouse religiously as a young lad growing up in the whirlwind of the 80's. The British should be proud.
Danger Mouse, for those of you who DON'T know, is a cartoon superhero created in England By Cosgrove/Hall Productions Limited... Danger Mouse is a wacky and hilarious adventure about a White Secret Agent Mouse, and his trusty bumbling sidekick hampster assistant, Penfold.... Together, they are given assignments by Colonel K, Their commander/walrus. The orders consisted of doing battle to save the world from monsters, master thieves, and crazed fiends of all types with the most prolific being their arch nemesis megalomaniac frog, Baron Silas Greenback and his henchman crow, Stiletto.It gave me a penchant for mind boggling mysteries, like what's up with being chased by giant rolling balls in a South American jungle, only to get holed as an unknowing participant in a huge game of snooker.
Danger Mouse: It's alright, Penfold, it'll just be Colonel K with some mind boggling mystery for me to solve.Or how about the time when DM and Penfold venture passed the edge of the universe in their trusty space hopper?
Colonel K: Ah, good show, DM. I've got a mind boggling mystery for you to solve.
Danger Mouse: I'm all ears, Colonel!
Colonel K: Well, none of us is perfect, DM.
