Mr. Bogus is a 2D animated cartoon series created by Peter Keefe based on the French/Belgian claymation short series Bogus; 42 out of the 300 of them are used as special segments. It aired from September 1991 to November 1993.

The show is about a small, yellow creature from a bizarre place named Bogusland that lives in the walls of a suburban home where a young boy named Tommy Anybody resides. Mischevious and gluttonous, Bogus tends to cause problems, solve them, or both.

Opening theme
