2 Stupid Dogs was an American animated television series created by cartoonist Donovan Cook produced by Hanna-Barbera Cartoons that ran from September 1993 to January 1995 on TBS Superstation. After it was cancelled, reruns continued to air on Cartoon Network and later Boomerang.

The main segments of the show featured two very stupid dogs, both of whom went unnamed (though the big dog was called 'Jonathan' in one episode and 'Johnny' in another). The big dog was voiced by Brad Garrett, later of US TV's Everybody Loves Raymond, and the little dog was voiced by Mark Schiff. A back-up segment, Super Secret Secret Squirrel, featured a modernized take on the classic Hanna-Barbera character Secret Squirrel.

Plot

---

2 Stupid Dogs was a cartoon about a stupid dog and another stupid dog, with similar jokes and an animation style that was unusual (at the time), although very different from the animation style of Ren and Stimpy.
