2 Stupid Dogs is an American animated comedy television series produced by Hanna-Barbera for TBS. It ran from 1993 to 1995, airing 26 episodes that spanned two seasons. It later reran on the Cartoon Network.
As the title suggests, two unnamed stray dogs (one big and one little) get into misadventures due to their lack of intelligence.
A backup segment, Super Secret Secret Squirrel, was slotted between two 2 Stupid Dogs segments. This is an updated version of the 1960s Secret Squirrel and Morocco Mole, only this time, the world in which Secret Squirrel and his assistant/sidekick, Morocco Mole, lived in was populated exclusively with anthropomorphic animals, instead of the usual mix of both anthropomorphic animals and humans. For example, Secret's boss was once human, but is now a Cape buffalo.
The first season has been released on DVD.
