List of Counterfeit Cat episodes

Last updated

Counterfeit Cat is an animated television series produced by Wildseed Kids for Teletoon and Disney XD. The series revolves around the friendship of Max (Marc Wootton), a lazy yellow housecat, and Gark (Alex Kelly), an alien who disguises himself in a purple knitted cat costume to blend in. Gark originally crashed down to Earth in his spaceship and landed in the laundry room of Betty (Kayvan Novak), an old woman who is Max's owner. Gark believes that Max is a tiger, the bravest species on Earth, despite Max's cowardice. The two often find themselves in surreal and dangerous situations due to Gark's unstable alien powers, which Max often uses to his own advantage without thinking of the consequences.

It is Jules Bass's only solo work without his partner Arthur Rankin Jr., who died on January 30, 2014. The show's premise is similar to the original series; in which the ThunderCats escape their dying homeworld Thundera, crash-land on Third Earth, and face off against various villains led by the evil overlord Mumm-Ra. Like Teen Titans Go!, ThunderCats Roar sports a more light-hearted, comedic tone than previous incarnations. The series was critically panned for its animation, humor and characterizations, and it ended on December 5, 2020, being cancelled after just one season. Following Jules Bass' death on October 25, 2022, it was his last television production.

    The sixth season of the American adult animated television series Rick and Morty premiered on September 4, 2022. Starring Justin Roiland as both titular characters, Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith, and their inter-dimensional counterparts, the season was ordered before the fourth season of the show finished airing, in May 2020.
