    Rude Dog and the Dweebs

    1 9 8 9 (USA)
    26 x 15 minute episodes

    This animated series from CBS debuted on 16 September 1989, the same day as The California Raisin Show and Dink the Little Dinosaur.

    Rude dog (voiced by Rob Paulsen) was a cool, smart dog with a Brooklyn accent who drove around in a pink 1956 Cadillac and lived in a converted auto shop with the Dweebs – a motley bunch of seven offbeat mutts who were constantly getting into (and out of) trouble.

    The Dweebs included a stuttering Dachshund named Caboose (voiced by Frank Welker); the uptight British Bulldog Winston (voiced by Peter Cullen); a Smooth Fox Terrier called Reggie (voiced by Mendi Segal channelling his best Jack Nicholson); a Great Dane from the Deep South named Barney (voiced by Dave Coulier); a Beagle called Satch (voiced by Jim Cummings impersonating Ed Wynn); a friendly Chihuahua named Tweek (voiced by Hank Saroyan), and a Chinese Crested mix called Ditzy Kibble (voiced by Ellen Gerstell).

    The group spent much of their time trying to avoid dogcatcher Herman P Rockbottom III (also voiced by Peter Cullen), who was assisted by his dog, Rot T Weiller, who had the IQ of a bowl of water.

    The Dweebs also had to contend with their neighbourhood nemesis – Seymour, the attack cat (also voiced by Frank Welker).

    Rude Dog had a girlfriend named Gloria (also voiced by Ellen Gerstell).
