Didn't see this posted anywhere else [tiny]and Larlar said I could[/tiny], but guess what is finally coming to the US in July?

I know Australia already has season 1 and 2 DVD's, but who cares about you? This is for us!

Created by John R. Dilworth, Courage the cowardly dog is one of, if not the best cartoons ever. It aired from 99-02, and was the story of Courage overcoming his fear of everything to save his owner/love Muriel (and sometimes Eustace).

First, our hero.

Courage just wants to live a quiet peaceful life on the farm with Muriel, but unfortunately he has to deal with crazy barbers, villainous foxes and even dastardly ducks!

Muriel is courage's mother figure, as he was abandoned as a pup. She is constantly being abducted/experimented on/changing personality due to her good nature and gullibility.

Eustace is Muriel's husband, and all around rude dude when it comes to Courage, chores, Egyptian relics (unless he finds out they're valuable) and... well, pretty much everything.

The villains (not all listed)

Katz, Courage's arch-nemesis and prolific con man, he constantly try's to trick Muriel and Eustace into using his services, and enjoys a bit of sport with Courage.

I am very excited, and can't believe it has taken this long to get even the Season 1 DVD here, hopefully it won't be too long for the rest.

And for those of you who don't like courage, I only have one thing to say:

    I can remember watching this show when it came out and just being floored by how bizarre it was. I don't think there is a single episode I did not enjoy.

    My favorite was a giant robot forced to enslave the family. But all he wanted to do was carve reigndeer. In order to defeat him courage challenged him to a breakdancing competition.

    I love the music from this show

    especially the one that played now and again that was basically a bongo player losing his goddamn mind while another dude occasionally plucked a guitar

    the one with the rat and cannonballs?

    That was like super weird. I dont even remember much of the plot to most of these.

    Like there was one where they visited New York and a ginat roach made them star in a play? What the hell even?

    Alien Chicken isn't in the OP. He is the first and thus most superior Courage Villian.
