Squirrel Boy

Squirrel Boy is an American animated television series created by Everett Peck for Cartoon Network.

A series of six shorts were released in 2008 from January 11 to April 10, and aired between commercial breaks as part of the Cartoon Network Extra mini-series.

Squirrel Boy centers on the lives of the titular anthropomorphic squirrel named Rodney (Richard Steven Horvitz), who is full of crazy ideas and get-rich-quick schemes, and his best friend and owner, a boy named Andy Johnson (Pamela Adlon).

Andy and Rodney are arch-enemies with a rowdy boy named Kyle Finkster (Billy West) and his own anthropomorphic parrot, Salty Mike (Carlos Alazraqui), who are neighborhood bullies and constantly pick on Andy and Rodney.

Other characters in the show include Oscar (Jason Spisak), Andy's nerdy human friend with overprotective parents, Leon (Tom Kenny), a stray, blue squirrel who is Rodney's friend and lives in a tree in the Johnsons' backyard, Darlene (Monica Lee Gradischek), a yellow, stray squirrel who is Rodney's love interest, Martha (Eliza Schneider), a nerdy human child prodigy who lives across the street and is Andy's love interest, and Esther Flatbottom, a cranky old lady who rides a motorized cart.
