Synopsis[edit]
Oggy, an anthropomorphic cat, would prefer to spend his days watching television
and eating, but is continuously pestered by three roaches, Joey, Dee Dee and Marky
(all named after members of the punk rock band Ramones). The Cockroaches'
slapstick mischief ranges from plundering Oggy's refrigerator to hijacking the train he
just boarded. Oggy is also helped by his cousin Jack in many situations, who is more
violent and short-tempered than him and is also annoyed by the Cockroaches. Bob, a
short-tempered bulldog also appears in show, who is Oggy's neighbor.

Episodes[edit]
Main article: List of Oggy and the Cockroaches episodes

Characters[edit]
Main[edit]
 Oggy – Oggy is a cat with a light blue body, green eyes, grey tummy and white feet.
Oggy usually spends his time either watching TV or doing housework — when not
chasing the cockroaches. Despite the constant mayhem caused by the cockroaches,
Oggy has developed a sort of love–hate relationship with them, having lived with
them for a long time. In the episode "The Ghost Hunter", Oggy kills the cockroaches
but is terrorized by the spirits. Whenever he finds himself alone in his house, he will
eventually begin to miss the cockroaches along with their pranks (as seen in the
episode "Priceless Roaches" and "So Lonely") followed by nothing interesting
happening in his life. Oggy's house appears bigger on the inside, mainly featured in
the roller coaster-like staircase scenes. According to executive producer Marc du
Pontavice and France Info, the character of Oggy was named after punk rock
musician Iggy Pop[3] and the rock album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the
Spiders from Mars.[4][5] In early episodes, Oggy, like his Tom and Jerry counterpart
was the main punching bag in the series. However, in more recent episodes, Oggy
has been portrayed as heroic, often triumphing over the cockroaches despite the
beatings he takes from them and Bob. Notable other accomplishments include
winning the Formula 1, placing first in a marathon, and ultimately winning over his
girlfriend Olivia.
 Cockroaches – The Cockroaches are three brothers who antagonize other
characters, mainly Oggy and Jack. The cockroaches love pranking them so much,
that if the cats were to leave, they would miss them (as seen in the episode "Moving
Out"). It is also implied that the roaches are named after members of the rock band,
The Ramones.
o Joey – Joey (born 15 June 1991)[6] is a purple-pink body, purple-blue head
roach with a pink right eye (originally red) and yellow left eye, and the oldest
brother. Even though he's the smallest roach in the group, most of the time
he's the most intelligent, always being the brain in the plans, but is
sometimes forced to go solo, because his brothers often think that his plans
are stupid. He loves money, but his efforts always fall short, usually ending
with him getting swatted or beaten up. He is named after lead singer Joey
Ramone.
o Marky – Marky is a suave heartbreaking, silvery-grey body, green head
roach with pink eyes (originally red, but returned in the ending of the
episode "Teleportation" where he is stuck in the ice cubes); he is the tallest
and middle brother of the three roaches and often doesn't really care about
what the two others are doing. While he originally used to love causing
mischief just like his brothers, he has grown to be more laid-back in later
episodes, though he still enjoys hanging out with Joey and Dee Dee and
causing general mayhem like he has always done. His hobbies are dating
puppets and reading books. He also has bad breath, as revealed in the
season 1 and season 6 episode "It's A Small World". He is named after
drummer Marky Ramone.
o Dee Dee – Dee Dee is the ever-hungry cockroach and youngest of the three.
He has a blue body, orange head and green eyes. His appetite sometimes
reaches insane proportions, often resulting in the consumption of larger
animals or other things that would otherwise be inedible (such as hyenas in
one case and, due to the effects of a poisonous mushroom in another case,
an insect. Other instances include the fish on the wallpaper "Oggy's Clone","
and a clownfish in "Scuba Diving"). He is known to like opera. Sometimes it is
shown that his feet are so foul-smelling, the juice they produce is toxic and
 melt objects, as shown in "Caught in a Trap". He is named after bassist Dee
Dee Ramone.
 Jack – Jack is Oggy's cousin, He is a cat who has an olive green body, yellow eyes,
pale Salmon pink tummy and white feet, in the show. He is like the complete
opposite of Oggy, as he is more short-tempered, violent and arrogant than him – a
perfect target for the roaches to annoy. He often finds himself building huge
machinery, such as roach-catching contraptions, most of the time resulting in them
backfiring, making him less lucky than Oggy in most situations. He is also very
interested in chemistry (that is, the more explosive parts of it). Jack mostly lives and
sleeps over at Oggy's house with Oggy. At times, he bullies Oggy. Jack seems to be
the strongest character in the show. He likes to show off, challenge the roaches and
date girls – mainly Oggy's sister Monica. He is sometimes seen trying to propose to
Monica, but the cockroaches' pranks always make him stop short. In one episode -
"Don't Rock The Cradle"/"Oggy The Babysitter", they seem to have a baby together
and ask Oggy to babysit their child. Jack also has a morbid fear of heights, as shown
in several episodes like the season 4 episode "The Lighthouse Keeper". However, in
the season 1 episode "The Rise & The Fall" Oggy has a fear of heights instead of Jack.

Recurring[edit]

 Bob – Bob is a fierce brown bulldog and Oggy's neighbor. He has severe anger
management issues. A running gag in the show has Oggy or Jack doing something
that accidentally crushes Bob or shaves his fur or destroys his house, with Bob then
pummeling Oggy or Jack off-screen. He does not always pummel Oggy, as seen in a
few episodes. He has some sort of friendship with them, as notably seen in "Olivia"
and "Back to the Past!". He is known to like boxing.
 Oggy's grandma – Oggy's grandma is a very rarely seen character only appearing in
three episodes; "Granny's Day" in season 1 and "Oggy's Grandma" in season 3,
where she appears to be very strict with Oggy's mannerisms and in "Deep Trouble"
beside Monica, as they support Oggy and Jack. In the episodes Granny's Day and
Oggy's Grandma, she attacks the cockroaches, and is actually attacked by them in
Oggy's Grandma, one time being her head flattened by the lid of Oggy's toilet. She
also gets frequent, short lasting bursts of energy from coffee, which aids her in
defeating the cockroaches. In Granny's Day, she captures Joey and Marky, but feels
sympathy for them, when Dee Dee cries on a picture of them with Joey and Marky
crossed out. She is the least seen member of Oggy's family except for Oggy's
parents, who were seen in a picture in "Oggy's Grandma". Oggy's grandma is the
only female character to appear on the show to intentionally want to kill/defeat the
cockroaches.
 Monica – Monica is Oggy's twin sister and Jack's love-interest. In one episode
""Oggy The Babysitter"/"Don't Rock The Cradle", they seem to have a child together.
She visits Oggy's house every now and then. She is well known for being very active
and likes to take on physical challenges such as sky diving and bungee jumping. She's
always seen skating around on her inline skates. Out of all the characters, she has
the least number of appearances; even fewer than Bob. Monica has rarely appeared
onscreen with the cockroaches or Bob (until her cameo only with Bob at the end of
the 4th-season finale episode "Oggy is Getting Married! (Featuring Olivia)"). After
Season 2, she's only appeared in two other episodes, them being "Deep Trouble". In
a Season 3 episode, she's instead seen wearing a magenta skirt and shoes instead of
her rollerskates. This also marks her first appearance without them since her latest
appearance in the season 2 episode "Don't Rock The Cradle". This also marks her
 first appearance without her baby in a later episode who, as mentioned before, also
originated from that episode. The second and latest appearance after season 2 was
the season 4 finale "Oggy Is Getting Married (Featuring Olivia)", where she makes a
brief appearance at Oggy and Olivia's wedding as she sits next to Bob. It is unknown,
but it is easier to assume she split up with Jack, as their child has never been seen
again, that they've never been seen together or have been talking since season 2
and that during that same episode, Jack is staring/ogling at his new partner. She
soon became friends with Olivia as in episode of Season 7, "Sharing Oggy".
 Olivia – Olivia is a white cat (also mainly wearing a yellow bow on her head), who is
Oggy's new neighbour and new love interest introduced in season 4. She loves
nature, even Oggy's main enemies, the cockroaches, leading to Oggy acting nice to
them every time she's around. She is aware of their mischief, so she does stop them
when they are around by using some aggressive methods, from her anger to even a
painful-looking fly swatter. She always breaks down when someone hurts any part of
nature. She also cares a lot about her looks, as seen in the episode "Olivia's Pimple",
where when she saw a pimple on her face, she refused to leave her house. In the
season 4 finale episode "Oggy Is Getting Married (Featuring Olivia)", as the episode
title implies, Olivia and Oggy get married after a trip to Venice, Italy.
 Lady K – Lady K is a light yellow female cockroach introduced in the season 4
episode "Lady K", and the roaches' new love interest (mainly Joey). She's the
cockroach that lives in Olivia's house, by which Olivia is not aware of. She hates
Olivia. She use the cockroaches as her pawns to get what she wants or to get her job
done.
 Pit – Pit is another silver coloured dog , appears in season 4 living in same area. He is
also strong like Bob and comes in less episodes.
 Bobette – Bobette is the daughter of Bob who is introduced in Season 5. She is Jack's
love interest, as seen in the episodes, " Marky's Tournament", and "Jackromeo and
Bobette". She is seen in the episode, "Emperor for a Day" as Napoleon's love
interest.
 Policeman – He is a human policeman who wears blue dress and hat of police who
catches and arrests the criminals. He often seen at traffic road or sometimes in
Oggy's area. Sometimes Oggy or Jack accidentally annoyed him (due to cockroaches)
and he beat or arrest them for crime. He appears in all seasons , except season 5.
 Doctor – He is a human doctor who often goes to Oggy's house, when Oggy gets
sick. In the episode "A Cute Little Puppy", it is shown that he has a puppy dog. He
does not appear in season 5.

After a four-year gap in production, Season 5 is planned for release in late 2017 with
two more seasons coming later.[7][8] Season 6 episodes have begun airing on K2[9] while
Season 5 will be previewed on Gulli.[10]

Oggy and the Cockroaches originates in France, where it aired on networks France 3,
Canal+, Gulli and Canal J.

 In the United States, Oggy and the Cockroaches initially aired on Fox Broadcasting
Company's Fox Kids block on September 12, 1998, six days after the original French
airdate.[11] It was soon moved to then-sister channel Fox Family Channel[12] in 1999.
The program did not return to television in the United States until February 2015
when it launched on Nickelodeon for the first time in 16 years. The show aired using
certain episodes of Season 4 until its last episode (High-Rise Nightmare) was aired
on 20 March 2015. Reruns of the show aired on Nicktoons until the show was taken
off the air in May 2015 and has not aired since, until 18 June 2018, when KidsClick
picked up the show for its weekday morning block, until KidsClick's demise on March
31, 2019, making this show not available on American over-the-air television for the
first time since 2015.[13] The series is available on Netflix for streaming in the United
States.
 The show also aired on Cartoon Network in Japan back in 1999.
 In South Korea, it aired on Tooniverse, Disney Channel and Cartoon Network in
2012.
 Oggy and the Cockroaches also originally aired on ITV on their children's block CITV
and Fox Kids in the United Kingdom, before moving to Pop and eventually Pop Max.
Currently, the show airs on Nicktoons in the country, mainly at late nights.
 In Ireland, the show aired on RTÉ2 in Ireland as part of The Den.
 It aired in Australia on Fox Kids and later on the ABC1, ABC3, ABC Me, ABC2 and ABC
HD networks, and in Canada on YTV and Vrak.tv (now Vrak). Cartoon Network Asia
and Disney Channel Asia also carried the series in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia,
Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand.
 Oggy and the Cockroaches was broadcast in New Zealand on TV3.
 It also aired in India on Nickelodeon from 2009 until 2012, when it was moved to
Cartoon Network. However, the network removed all airings from older episodes of
the series, just focusing on premieres, while Nickelodeon started broadcasting the
show on its older episodes.[14] Later, the series was also picked up by Sonic
Nickelodeon, resulting in three channels simultaneously airing Oggy. In early 2017,
Nickelodeon picked up the rights to air season 4 and Cartoon Network temporarily
stopped airing the show. Season 5 started airing on Cartoon Network from 14
August 2017.[15] Now the show is only aired on Cartoon Network. The Indian version
of the show is unique in that it has Hindi dialogues dubbed by voice actor Sourav
Chakraborty (imitating famous Bollywood actors), whereas the original version of
the show does not feature any spoken dialogue. In the show's Indian hindi dubbed
version, the name of cockroaches are also changed from their original names, Jack is
introduced as Oggy's elder brother instead of his cousin and Monika is introduced as
Oggy's childhood friend instead of his sister.
 It is also aired in Pakistan on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network.
 In Israel, Oggy and the Cockroaches aired on Arutz HaYeladim.
 In Spain, it aired in La 2.
 It has aired in Malaysia on numerous channels, including TV3 and formerly NTV7,
despite having aired in that country on Cartoon Network and Disney Channel.
 Super RTL aired Oggy and the Cockroaches in Germany, with Disney Channel
Germany following suit. Alter Channel also aired the series in Greece, with Jetix
 following suit. However, as of 2009, Jetix has ceased operations, and as of December
2011, Alter Channel also has ceased operations as well. As such, Oggy and the
Cockroaches currently no longer airs in Greece.
 Oggy and the Cockroaches started streaming through Rovio's toons.tv service in
December 2013 and continued to stream on the service until November 2015, when
it was removed along with other Xilam-related shows such as Hubert and Takako
and Zig and Sharko.
 It is airing on TeleTOON+ and Puls 2 in Poland.
 It has aired in Morocco on 2M.
 In Vietnam, BRT, a local television in Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu Province became the first local
(non-regional/non-national) television channel to broadcast this show, although
Disney Channel Asia formerly aired it. As of 2019, only BRT and Cartoon Network
Asia are broadcasting the show, although they recently didn't air any new seasons
due to Q.net owning Cartoon Network's Vietnam feed, forcing some shows to not air
in Vietnam.

Controversy[edit]
On 14 March 2015, TMZ reported that a young viewer had pointed out a brief image
of a poster in the background with a woman's exposed breasts, shown in the episode
"(Un)happy Camper!", which was broadcast on Nickelodeon in the United States on
the same day, with some parents complaining about the incident to the network.[38]
However, the series aired in a timeslot (3:30 p.m. ET/PT[39]) on the American
Nickelodeon network before most school-age children got home from school, so the
incident did not gain mainstream media attention. The series continued to air on
Nickelodeon in that timeslot until the season's episodes were exhausted, and it aired
on sister network Nicktoons until 1 May 2015, likely solely for contractual purposes
due to Nickelodeon's worldwide deal for the series which requires an airing on its
American networks. For future airings of the episode worldwide, and on the official
Oggy channel on YouTube, the poster image was replaced with a neutral beach scene.
