• Who was your favorite Danger Mouse character?

  Who was your favorite charater. For me it wasn't DM, but rather his sidekick Penfold. I used to love how he said Oh Eck, which is Oh Heck, with an english accent. Oh eck DM!

  Hello to those of you who own Danger Mouse DVDs both here and in the UK. Since my cyber-hubby, johnandjanice, has done the Breakdown game with South Park, maybe I can have a little Breakdown game of my own, this time with Danger Mouse. And it starts with Season 1 (1981). Each episode has 10 lives, represented by the number of votes to go added to each one (kinda like Hurt and Heal, only you don't heal, and there are episodes instead of characters), and you can only vote only once per day. The episode that remains standing wins. So I'll start off by voting off "Die Laughing", which means only 9 votes to go before it's gone (like each episode). Rouge Robots - 10 Who Stole the Bagpipes? - 10 The Trouble With Ghosts - 10 The Chicken Run - 10 The Martian Misfit - 10 The Dream Machine - 10 Lord of the Bungle - 10 Die Laughing - 9 The World of Machines - 10 Ice Station Camel - 10 The Plague of Pyramids - 10less «

  DangerMouse is a wonderful show and earn extra points for having one of the best theme songs of all time. Great show! hide « show »

  DangerMouse will always have a place in my heart. If nothing else, it has one of the all time great theme songs. "He's the fastest, he's the greatest, he's the best!" Genius!
  
  The animation was a bit limited and not overly impressive. But the character designs were iconic and top notch. DangerMouse with his trademark eye patch and Penfold in his little suit work wonderfully well.
  
  For an American, DangerMouse also holds a unique appeal. The sly and absurdist British wit were a sharp contrast to the American cartoons at the time. I know I had never seen anything quite like it. There's also the fact that Americans are easily impressed with British accents, even on carton characters.
  
  Surprisingly, the success of DangerMouse did not lead to more British cartoons on American TV. DangerMouse stands out as a sort of one-off success. It's the Monty Python of cartoons.
  
  All in all, a wonderfully odd and engaging cartoon.

  I loved this show as a kid, Danger Mouse rocks, and so does Penfold. hide « show »

  This show was very entertaining, I cought it in the Nickelodean days as all but a select few probably did. I have a buddy who has all the DVD's which is cool, because now he can show this show to his kids. I liked everything except the bad guys voice, that was hard to listen to sometimes. Danger Mouse & Penfold were cool, nothing like two rodent crime fighters. this might be a little lesser known, but I would still call this an 80's cartoon classic. I hope I can borrow my buddies DVD, so I can check this show out again, and see what jokes, that are more adult, that I didn't get as a kid.

  Very good show! hide « show »

  I never saw this tv series when it was on tv so I wrented Seasons 1 and 2 of it on DVD at the Library, watched every episode on it and I love it. It's very adventurouse and very funny. Penfold is such a hilarious charactor! He has alot of funny quotes in this series like this one...
  
  Danger Mouse: Say good-bye, Penfold!
  Penfold: Good-bye Penfold!
  
  Also, the villains are very cool too! I now know why my friend Manic Man loves this tv series so much. It's got a bunch of good adventures and good humor in it. If you love secret agent series with good humor in them, this is a tv series that you will love.

  A really great cartoon should appeal to youngsters on one level and to adults on a totally different level. It should be fast-paced, have great dialogue and be clever. Danger Mouse met all of these requirements! hide « show »

  I first saw Danger Mouse ( voiced by the wonderful David Jason of Only Fools and Horse’s fame ) in the early 1980s and was immediately hooked. A spoof of Sherlock Holmes, James Bond and other super secret agents, the show was a true classic. "D.M." as everyone called Danger Mouse was self-assured, witty, very British and constantly foiled by the ineptness of his helpmate Penfold. Yet D.M. always got his man, or frog or duck! Penfold ( voiced by Terry Scott of Terry and June fame ), the hamster was hilarious in his own right and the two made one of the memorable cartoon duos in history.
  
  When you throw in "the world's most villainous toad," Baron Silus Greenback and his henchman Stilleto, you have lots of fun. I'll always remember Stilleto trying to butter-up Greenback: "You're as gorgeous as de Borges [not sure of that reference]; you're as phony as Al Capone-ee!" To which Greenback modestly purred "Yes, I know."
  
  With blundering old Colonel Kay (an aging sheep dog) giving orders via a futuristic web cam, the pair was always in some sort of a pickle and always found hilarious ways to get out of it. This was great family entertainment and if you get a chance to see it on TV, or to buy or rent the DVD's then do so as it's a classic.

  The Greatest hide « show »

  My all-time favourite childrens programme, a view I know is shared with a lot people my age, following numerous pub discussions.
  
  Coming from the Cosgrove/Hall stable (Jamie and the Magic Torch, Chorlton & the Wheelies and later Count Duckula), Dangermouse was probably the funniest thing I had ever seen. Some of the comments the narrator made were simply hilarious, not to mention poor on Penfold, voiced by the late Terry Scott. Not to be forgotten was Brian Trueman, who seems to have been involved with a lot of programmes I remember.
  
  As others here have also mentioned, the humour was cleverly written on various levels, so it appealed to adults and children alike.
  
  It may now be time to buy the DVDs
  
  In my opinion, the best cartoon ever.
