General Show Information The Eek! the Cat show was created by Savage Steve Holland and Bill Kopp and the first shows began in September 1992. The episodes are lasted half-hour. Later on however, the episodes bcame shorter since more airtime was filled in by commercials. The later season's shows shared the half-hour slot with The Terrible Thunderlizards and Klutter, both of which were also creations of Savage Steve Holland. Eek stopped airing in 2000 but continues to be shown in Europe. Eek and His Family Eek lives in the town of McTropolis. This cat is extremely gentle and caring cat who loves everyone and everything, with the exception of bugs. all his efforts of help for others often lead him to experience accidents and pains, howeer these do not maim his desires to help others. Eventhough Eek can talk with most animals and some people, he cannot speak with Mom, Wendy Elizabeth and J.B. While mom likes to do the house chores she listens to tapes of many different languages. A world class linguist! She is the mom of Wendy Elizabeth and J.B. Both are whiney and spoiled and watch a lot of television. Their favorite show is The Squishy Bearz Rainbow of Enchanted Fun Minute. Eek's girlfriend is named Annabelle, a fairly plump cat who appreciates her Romeo. Love is blind, and Eek doesnt notice anabelle is "fat" but thats okay, because he loves her just the way she is. One problem though, anabelles pet dog, Sharky. Sharky can give a mean bite and puts Eek on the run constantly. However not all is bad, and on a few episodes Eek and sharky can be seen getting along pretty well. Elmo the Elk is an eccentric character who never lacks adventure. He is a friend of Eek and is always there to lend a helping hand. His manner of talking is somewhat high-pitched and nasal. Elmo is good with science and all sorts of gizmos, which come in handy on many occasions. Thunderlizards The Terrible Thunderlizards were placed next to the Eek segment during the second season in 1993. The main characters are dinosaurs ( Doc, Squat and Kutter) who form the comando called The Terrible Thunderlizards. The conflict of the show is that the Thunderlizards were released from Jurassic Prison with the condition that they would get rid of the pesky humans (Bill and Scooter), who always manage to escape their efforst thanx to their lucky stars. other enemies of theThunderlizards include the Thugasaurs, who are zombie-like living skeleton dinos that live in the X-Zone. The leader of the Thugasaurs is named Thugo and his side kick is Biff. Something the Thugasaurs and the Thunderlizards face is that their plans always end up foiled. The Thunderlizards head hancho is General Galapagos who gives them orders to irradicate the humans. Whenefer the Thunderlizards fail, the General is always the one to blame. The humans, Bill and Scooter, always come up with new inventions (specifically scooter) which give them a boost over their adversaries. We have seen them invent many things, among them the wheel, cameras and Halloween.
