Mother Goose and Grimm

I first saw panels of the Mother Goose and Grimm comic strip in a newspaper about two decades ago. Because of its title and I only saw a few panels, I thought the strip was a combination of Mother Goose rhymes and the tales written by the Brothers Grimm. That was what I thought for a long time.

Later in 2020, I was doing a brief research on the fictional author Mother Goose on Wikipedia. As I scrolled to the bottom of the article, I found a link to the Mother Goose comic strip. Upon entering the link, it was there I found out the strip does not at all reference the Mother Goose author or the Brothers Grimm. Instead the strip is about a silly dog owned by an elderly anthropomorphic goose. And when I scroll to the bottom of the strip's article, I discover that the strip has an animated adaptation. I would go on to watch one episode of the series online a few days later.

What can I say about this series? I would say its a fine animated show of the 1990s. Fine in terms of graphics, humor, and acting. I also have a feeling Grimmy's personality probably inspired that of Courage the Cowardly Dog who would debut several years later.
