and produced by Hanna-Barbera
and Turner Program Services
that originally ran from September 5, 1993 to February 13, 1995 on TBS
. The main segments of the show featured two dogs, "Big Dog" and "Little Dog". The Big Dog was voiced by Brad Garrett
and the Little Dog was voiced by Mark Schiff
. Reruns are played on Cartoon Network's classic animation network Boomerang in 2005 through 2006, and returned on June 1, 2009 (though only showing it every summer), and also returned on July 5, 2011 to Cartoon Network for the first time in ten years, but it was removed from the lineup on September 26, 2011.
On 13th February 1995, the cartoon's run ended.
A backup segment, a remake of Hanna-Barbera's Secret Squirrel
(entitled Super Secret Secret Squirrel), was shown in between the main 2 Stupid Dogs cartoons in many of the 13 episodes, similar to early Hanna-Barbera cartoons in the 1960s.
2 Stupid Dogs is about a big dog and a little dog, who aren't very smart as the title explains, and their everyday misadventures, with an animation style unusual for the time: a very flat, simplistic style similar to early Hanna-Barbera
cartoons of the '50s and '60s, but with early '90s humor and sensibility.
