Telecat

1983–1986 · 3 seasons

A quick, silly puppet news parody full of talking objects and surreal jokes that plays like a gentle, absurdist children's show.

Genres
Kids, Comedy, Family
Overview
Created by French surrealist artist Roland Topor and director Henri Xhonneux, Telecat is a news show parody hosted by a tomcat named Groucha (who always had his arm in plaster) and an ostrich named Lola. It featured a variety of sentient objects and revolved around the idea that the real-life elementary particles known as gluons were “the souls of objects”.
