Advantages: Michael Dorn's excellent voice
Disadvantages: Has the annoying red devil guy and its got a strange sense of humor to it.
After watching this cartoon - I can't look at Star Trek and see Worf (The Starfleet Klingon) appear anymore, without shouting I M WEASEL! The cartoon - originally shown on Cartoon Network, features 2 main characters, the title character I.M.Weasel (voiced by Michael Dorn from Star Trek) and I.R. Baboon. Weasel is the brains - hes a scientist, film star, astronaut, all round super hero. I.R. Baboon is an idiot. Nuff said I think! Each episode usually consists of the well respected Weasel being asked to do something really useful for the city. Then the jealous baboon comes along, hoping to claim all of the limelight - only messing it all up, ending up with Weasel rescuing him and clearing up the mess. A lot of the episodes also feature a recurring character that first appeared in another of the Cartoon Network's cartoons, Cow and Chick - he is the Fat Red Devil bloke. He generally appears posing as different characters (usually with very dubious names - eg. Rear Admiral!) and is rather annoying at best. There have been some bizzare episodes - eg: - Baboon trips over something that isn't there and breaks his phantom foot (an appendage that isn't there) and attempts to sue Weasel for causing his injury! - Weasel and Babbon are snake exterminators in ancient Egypt - they get a call from The Red Devil guy (posing as a Cleopatra type character) to come and exterminate the asps in his/her pyramid! Personally, I've seen quite a number of these cartoons and I really would only recommend them to those who might walk by the television set and find that its on. Its got a strange sort of sense of humour to it that maybe even the kids won't grasp - some people might find difficult to take in. But for Michael Dorn fans - its just good fun to hear him do something other than Star Trek!
