Poster for Puppets Who Kill

Puppets Who Kill

2002–2006 · 4 seasons

A gleefully crude, deadpan sitcom where foul-mouthed felt puppets commit petty crimes and torment their weary handler.

Genres
Animation, Comedy
Overview
Puppets Who Kill is a Canadian television comedy programme co-produced by The Comedy Network. It premiered in Canada on the Comedy Network in 2002, and in Australia on The Comedy Channel in 2004. In Puppets Who Kill, Rocko the Dog, Cuddles the Comfort Doll, Buttons the Bear, and Bill the Dummy are four live, anthropomorphic puppets with a history of delinquency and recidivism. Canadian courts sent each of them to a halfway house for puppets, operated by a man named Dan Barlow.
