Using Canadian voice actors as usual, this show went a step further and did the animation at Canada’s Crawley Films.

The show is badly animated, but the writing and acting are sharp. Because of its CanCon status, the series ran for years and years on Canadian local stations, often at 7 a.m. Here’s an episode (I love the quirky closing theme, by the way.)

The Death Psychic has spoken.
