Anyone familiar with the animated short "The Dirdy Birdy" will recognize the exaggerated animation of John R. Dilworth in "Courage the Cowardly Dog".
A favorite of the Spike and Mike Animation circuit, Dilworth takes on the challenge of a children's program and delivers with finesse and style that will appeal to both children and adults. The oversized animation, with the example of gigantic items coming from Courage's tiny pockets and his trademark scream, reminds Spike and Mike veterans of "The Dirdy Birdy" and it's a wonderful treat to see Dilworth's twisted talent every week. The writing is witty, the voices are perfect, and the plots are mostly out of the ordinary. Although the series might be a bit extreme for younger viewers, older children, teens, and adults are a perfect target audience. I'd love to see a special Spike and Mike version of "Courage" myself. Dilworth is best when on a larger screen.
