For only thirty episodes and a very small cast Top Cat still remains a well remembered series, whether it be the lead characters patronising attitude towards his best friends, Officer Dibble, the gang trying to mind a baby, or the Untouchables parody, there isn't a single episode that dosen't have at least one classic moment. It's certainly not perfect, there a several weak episodes where the storyline just feels like they couldn't think of anything else to do, and for children it could get a bit tiring, it's certainly not as wacky as Scooby Doo or as zany as Tom and Jerry, a lot of the show takes place in the same locations and it's very dialogue based, but once the lines are well written it isn't a huge issue. It's an absolute classic, the humour still holds up today and there's enough in it for both kids and adults to enjoy, it's a typical Hanna Barbera series, with the same sort of comedic tone that features in the Flintstones, and I would say it's one of their finest, the characters are still remembered and very loved to this day, which shows the timelessness of it. Top Cat is a brilliant television series with very well written episodes and a fantastic voice cast.
