What a gem of an animated show. This was part of my childhood when I was little, and I still adore it now. Seriously, it should be brought back, so that children nowadays could enjoy the childhood gems like this, Talespin, Count Duckula, Darkwing Duck and Peter Pan and the Pirates, that are ignored and replaced with (save a couple of rarities) awfully animated shows like Shaggy and Scooby Doo:Get a Clue. Back on target, Danger Mouse is an absolute gem. The animation is fantastic, very colourful and vibrant, not shoddy and flat. The theme tune is one of my all time favourite animated show theme tunes, I can't help it, it is so catchy and wholly memorable. The scripts and story lines are funny and original, and the characters are great, not only Danger Mouse and Penfold, but also Baron Greenback is such a convincing villain. The voice acting is just brilliant from everyone involved; David Jason is an enormously talented actor and he was just superb as the iconic title character. All in all, a brilliant animated show, that should be brought back. 10/10 Bethany Cox
This is my childhood cartoon, and I miss it.. David Jason was great as the various voices. The stories were funny and the characters were classics.
I lay in wait when they will re-show this cartoon...

Another great show from my younger days, Danger Mouse used to pop up on Nickelodeon. I first saw Count Duckula before also stumbling onto this cartoon. Secret Agent Danger Mouse, looking heroic with his DM emblem and tough with his eyepatch, lived in a red mailbox on a street corner in London. His sidekick, the lovable but cowardly Penfold, was a blue suit wearing mole who would run behind Danger Mouse screaming "Oh, eck!". Colonel K, who I think was an old beaver or something, would call in and send Danger Mouse on all his dangerous missions to thwart the evil Baron Silas Greenback, a large frog petting a fuzzy caterpillar. DM would also drive around in his own super secret agent car, escape from snapping alligators and always saved the day. I also remember a lot of bombs exploding and that great theme song.
One of the best cartoons from the United Kingdom. I really like this, and I recommend it to everyone. It is that good of a show.
'Danger Mouse' cashed in on the heights of 'Danger Man' and the Bond films to create a mouse superhero (voiced by the versatile David Jason).
In a tale of good versus evil (the usual cartoon simplistic stuff), Danger Mouse and his hamster sidekick Penfold (voiced by the much missed Terry Scott) battled against the wonderfully named Silas Greenback (voiced by Edward Kelsey). Danger Mouse was a master of derring-do and wore an eyepatch! Written by comic Mike Harding and kids' TV regular Brian Trueman (who presented Screen Test amongst other things) it was funny, clever, and hugely enjoyable for all age groups.
