About this show

From Hanna-Barbera, Top Cat is one clever and charming cat ... literally! Always ready with a quip or a hustle, this cat with a porkpie hat rules the alleys of New York City with his fellow felines, poking fun at the hapless Officer Dibble. It's a good thing cats have nine lives, for the way Top Cat makes trouble, he's going to need them!

The show was boring when I watched it as a kid but it was okay. I probably won't go back and watch it now because I imagine it will be extra boring. Still better than a lot of cartoons out today though.

Truly, one of the greatest cartoons ever. Also, I would like to respond to an earlier 2 star review. Please, reviewer, do not give something a bad review because of how old it is, that's just plain retarded.
