Bad Dog

1998–2000 · 2 seasons

A light, silly cartoon full of simple gags and the repeated joke of a dog playing dead.

Overview: Focuses on the Potanski family and their dog Berkeley. Whenever Berkeley is told that he is a bad dog, he freezes and pretends to be dead until someone tells him he is a good dog.
How it feels: Whimsical and absurd. Brisk and fine in the background.
About: Family
Content: Mild violence and language. No gore or sexual content.
