What happens

Walter Melon (French: Achille Talon) is an animated television series, loosely adapted from the Franco-Belgian comic Achille Talon. A co-production between Saban International Paris, ARD/Degeto, France 2 and Scottish Television Enterprises with the participation of Canal+, Walter Melon aired in the United States on Fox Family from 1998 to 1999. In the UK, the series was broadcast on CITV (via Scottish Television), and later reran on Fox Kids. Each episode consists of two shorter adventures, and a total of 52 episodes were produced. Ownership of the series passed to Disney in 2001 when Disney acquired Fox Kids Worldwide, which also includes Saban Entertainment. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
