Bounty Hamster
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bounty Hamster is an animated children's cartoon created by Dave Freeman and Alan Gilbey. It follows the adventures of Cassie, a 13 year old girl, who is searching the universe for her father after he was kidnapped by space pirates. To help her, she elists the aid of the only bounty hunter she can afford, who turns out to be a talking blue hamster named Marion. They have an odd-couple style relationship and search the universe together for Cassie's father.
Despite airing in a children's timeslot, the show has quite a broad appeal, containing frequent science fiction references, in-jokes and puns, as well as nods to other movies and tv series. Marion's name and eyepatch are a riff off John Wayne and the character he played in True Grit.
So far there has been one series of 26 11-minute episodes, and it is unknown whether there will be a 2nd.
