I was watching this set of shorts from Telecat called Du Ketchup pour le Vampire. (Ketchup for the Vampire.) It has the Telecat cast engage in comedy-horror scenarios. I drew this sketch of Telly as he appears in the shorts during my break yesterday since I thought he looked good in it.
I don't get to draw things like this as much as I used to. I normally do it now just to practice with art. Sometimes I feel like I pour too much time into making small sketches like this look presentable...
While looking through old TV shows that I used to watch, Telecat (or Téléchat) came to mind.
I searched online for episodes when I discovered one that was fully dubbed in ENGLISH.
For years, all I had to go on was the original French dub. But now I know that the show was lucky enough to get an English release!
Sadly, this was the only English episode I could find. I searched all over the internet, only to come up empty-handed.
I don't believe the English dub of Téléchat is lost media. But considering the small number of episodes I found that were dubbed in other languages like Spanish and German, it just might be.
I'm pretty sure Telecat wasn't as big a success in Britian as it was in France. But there HAD to be some people out there who were fortunate enough to record these episodes.
If you or anyone you know happens to have a copy of an English episode of Telecat, don't hesitate to share them and tell me about it! The world needs more of Groucha's (Telly's) wonderful English voice this incredibly obscure show!
