Plot
Mr. Magoo follows the eponymous kind-hearted fellow who is always happy to lend a hand—but often causes disasters instead, as without his glasses he makes all kinds of chaotic mix-ups. Despite this, his only enemy is Fizz, a megalomaniacal hamster who is somehow always accidentally thwarted by Magoo.[4]
Cast
Main
- Mr. Magoo (voiced by Ian Hanlin) a happy-helping man without glasses. Due to his poor vision, he does not know what he is doing.
- Mr. Cat (voiced by Colin Murdock), Mr. Magoo's pet Bull Terrier dog. While he is annoyed by his owner's poor vision, he cares deeply about him and rescues him in the most dangerous situations. He is also aware of what Fizz's intentions are and that Weasel works for Fizz.
- Fizz (voiced by Colin Murdock), a villainous, evil talking orange hamster who wants to take over the world and to be worshipped forever but he is always defeated by Magoo. For some reasons, he hates Magoo so much that he wants to kill him, but always failling. Everytimes he screaming "MAGOO" after he failed.
- Weasel (voiced by Shawn MacDonald), Fizz's dimwitted yet loyal henchman and nicknamed Weaso. Magoo sometimes recognizes him, but is unaware of his real occupations.
Recurring
