Story

The Wacky World of Tex Avery was an American animated television series that aired in 1997-1998. It was a homage to the classic cartoons of legendary animator Tex Avery.
The show featured a variety of Tex Avery-inspired stories and characters, including a cowboy protagonist who would often find himself in wacky, over-the-top situations. The series aimed to capture Avery’s signature style of exaggerated slapstick humor, visual gags, and breaking of the fourth wall.
However, reviews of the show were generally negative, with critics arguing that it failed to truly capture the spirit and comedic genius of Tex Avery’s original cartoons. Many felt the show was simply hyperactive without being genuinely funny, and that the animation quality was lacking compared to Avery’s pioneering work.
Overall, The Wacky World of Tex Avery was an attempt to pay homage to the legendary animator, but it was widely seen as falling short of the mark in terms of replicating Avery’s unique brand of anarchic, irreverent, and groundbreaking animated comedy.

Who are the main characters of Tex Avery?


Tex Avery: a goat-riding cowboy protagonist who saves the day and protects his love interest Chastity Knott from his nemesis Sagebrush Sid. He has a sarcastic, no-nonsense personality and often says catchphrases like "You try to be a nice guy but no...!" and "I don't think so."
Sagebrush Sid: Tex Avery's main antagonist, described as a villainous character who constantly tries to cause trouble. He has a gruff, confrontational personality and often yells "What are YOU looking at?!"
Einstone: a brilliant caveman inventor who tries to teach his fellow cavemen about civilization and progress, based on Albert Einstein. He has an eccentric, intellectual personality.
Genghis & Khannie: Genghis is a lion-like warrior who leads his army to conquer the world, while Khannie is a young female panda he meets. Their personalities play on the historical figures Genghis Khan and his conquests.
Maurice the Chicken and Mooch the Fox: Maurice is a clever chicken who constantly outwits the dimwitted fox Mooch, who tries to eat him. Their dynamic is based on classic cartoon rivalries.
Pompeii Pete: a bumbling Roman centurion who gets buried in lava during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, only to reemerge 2,000 years later to annoy a modern businessman named Dan.
