Gophers! is a Channel 4 children's programme about a family of American gophers who move into a new neighbourhood, called Sycamore Heights, living next door to a family of uptight but well-intentioned rabbits, The Burrows.

There were many recurring jokes within this short lived show such as Arthur Burrows' vegetables planning a rebellion to escape his garden, also a mad scientist ferret called Dr Wince, that had ambitions of conquering the world with the help of his reptilian servant Sly, and an alien in love with a cucumber determined to get home. Also there were Mexican cockroaches who lived in the Gophers house always trying to steal their food.
