What happens

La Bande à Ovide, a.k.a. Ovide and the Gang, is a 1980s animated comedy TV series produced by Canadian studio CinéGroupe (who also produced Mega Babies, Sharky & George and The Little Flying Bears) with the co-production of Belgium's Odec Kid Cartoons. It aired on Télévision de Radio Canada from on October 17, 1987 to January 7, 1989 and also goes by the names Ovide Video and Ovide's Video Show. The series gained popularity in the United Kingdom when the BBC broadcast the series as part of their Children's BBC programming strand from August 1987, and stayed with the BBC until Spring 1992, before switching to Channel 4. The characters were created and designed by Bernard Godi in cooperation with Belgian comic artist and animator Nic Broca, who had previously designed the Snorks for SEPP. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
