Sharky and George

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sharky and George (original name: Sharky et Georges) was a French children's TV cartoon from 1992. It was translated to English and shown on Sky Channel and Channel 4 in the United Kingdom, RTÉ Two in Ireland, and RTV Politika in Serbia.

Sharky and George was a humorous show about two fish private detectives, set in the underwater city of Seacago. Sharky, the bigger fish, is a pink shark, has a huge nose, and wears a Humphrey Bogart -style fedora hat. George, the smaller fish, is blue with a yellow face, and looks noticeably younger than Sharky.

The show has a catchy theme song, with the chorus "Sharky and George - the crime busters of the sea/Sharky and George - clear up any mystery".

The cartoon was made by the Canadian animation company CinéGroupe who were also responsible for the cartoon Ovide and the Gang.

[edit] English Theme Tune

All you scoundrels, all you villains,
Sharky moves fast and is not kiddin'.
Gangsters, hoodlums, thugs and robbers
George gets there and crime gets clobbered.
Sharky and George - the crime busters of the sea,
Sharky and George - clear up any mystery
So watch your tails, all you crooks
George is expert with micro-hooks
Mugs pull capers in the sea,
Sharky makes sure they don't go free
Sharky and George - the crime busters of the sea,'
Sharky and George - clear up any mystery

[edit] French Theme Tune

Vous les gredins, vous les canailles
Sharky déboule, gare aux écailles
Vauriens, voyoux, vermines, crapules
Quand Georges est là, ça fait des bulles
Sharky et Georges
C'est nous les privés de la mer
Sharky et Georges
On élucide tous les mystères
Gare à vos dents, vous les fripouilles
Car Georges est le roi des magouilles
Dès qu'une affaire n'a pas l'air nette
Sharky est là, nom d'une arrête !
Sharky et Georges
C'est nous les privés de la mer
Sharky et Georges
On élucide tous les mystères

In Hungarian the title is Cápali és Cápeti, where Cápa means Shark, Pali and Peti means Paul and Pete.

Gonosztevők, gaz halak
Jön Cápali s megragad
Tolvaj, zsivány, csaló, rabló
Jön Cápeti a megtorló
Cápali és Cápeti a két kopoltyús zseni
Cápali és Cápeti nevüket mindenki ismeri
Ha a törvényt megszeged,
Cápali jön és megkerget
Mérgében társa Cápeti
Szól: a hal szálkáját neki!
Cápali és Cápeti a két kopoltyús zseni
Cápali és Cápeti nevüket mindenki ismeri
