Marcus Geebs I use to watch this cartoon when I was a kid and I remember it not being to good. Time has not been good to this cartoon, this is the only cartoon cartoon I would pass on. As the cartoon cartoons were being created they had to go through a trial called the What a cartoon show If the pilot was good enough the show would be given a chance to debut on cartoon network as a cartoon cartoon. What I've been wondering is how did Mike Lu and Og pass?. This cartoon has a plot but they just never explain it, I had to look it up because the show never sets you up, it doesn't explain anything. Basically this cartoon takes place on a tropical Island, Mike is a city girl from the Bronx in NYC, how she got there? we go to wikipedia turns out she's a foreign exchange student this is mentioned in the show in the passing but why would you be in a foreign exchange program on a island that could be deserted?. Lu is the self proclaimed princess of the island which gives her the excuse for being annoying. Og is the genius character he doesn't speak much and second he provides the foil for each episode.In conclusion this is certainly a cartoon to pass on which is a shame to say about an official cartoon cartoon.

Ethylred One of those you-love-it-or-you-hate-it shows, it seems. "Mike, Lu & Og" never pretended to be anything more than light entertainment. I loved the show's watercolor-style backgrounds, and the quirky character designs. The voice artists found just the right note for each character. And nobody was supposed to take any of it seriously. Could an island about six miles in diameter support pigs, goats, elephants, crocodiles, wombats, porcupines, turtles, and man-eating rutabagas? Could a seven-year-old (Og) really build a particle accelerator out of bamboo poles, coconuts and conch shells? How can a crew of presumably all male pirates on nearby island have descendants 300 years later? C'mon, folks. It's just a cartoon.But there was some surprisingly smart stuff just at the edges of the pratfalls and pies in the face. Swenson's "fish out of water" premise (Manhattanite among the islanders) was often a double-edged sword. Mike missed her NYC perks, until Og brought them to life on the island, and Mike was reminded that the Good Life had its price. Whether it was rollerskating, 24/7 neon lights or the mystery of what goes into a hot dog, what seemed at first like a good idea would end up getting way out of hand once reinterpreted by the local islanders.There was also an amazing amount of backstory. The islanders are actually descendants of two clans (the Albonquetines and the Cuzzlewitts) who survived an 18th century shipwreck (the HMS Betty Anne, piloted by Joshua Wendel Albonquetine), and who parted ways after a bitter feud (reportedly over a bad wig). And then there's Michelline "Mike" Mavinsky, apparently from a New York parochial school, where a Sister Ignatius once accused her of having a terminal smirk. Why does everyone (including Mike) pronounce her last name "Mazinsky"? All that is material straight from the show."Mike, Lu & Og" never broke new ground or raised the bar, but then, it never set out to. It was just a cartoon, with an exotic setting and look, likable characters and some unexpectedly sharp quips. The music was fun, too. As I said, you love it or you hate it. Me, I liked it.

dootuss It's still a decent show. The characters are funny, and i think Lancelot is adorable. This show can get boring at times, but it's not a bad show. It's actually in the middle with all the other cartoon cartoons, and it's better than Ed,Edd, and Eddy (now that show sucks) and a lot of the other cartoon cartoons. So you might want to tune into this. You might like it.

Infinitygirl It can get dull at points, but when it gets funny, it's hysterical! I don't think it's CN's best, but definitely not it's worse (That prize goes to about ninety percent of the stuff on the Cartoon Cartoon show!)! I agree Lancelot is really cute! Too bad CN couldn't promote this show a little more. I'd like a little stuffed Lancelot and Mike would look really good on a T-shirt!
