“Mike, Lu, & Og” was CN’s Mellowest Show 

Og always reminded me of the island version of Double D

MIKE, LU & OG to me feels like a Nicktoon that Cartoon Network adopted after Nickelodeon abandoned it. The overall art style of the show feels rather reminsicent to Klasky/Csupo's outings like RUGRATS and AAH! REAL MONSTERS, and the fact that Nickelodeon regulars like Nika Futterman and Nancy Cartwright were among the voice cast gives it more of a Nicktoon feel than a Cartoon Cartoon feel.

Back in Pakistan this show would come on in the living room when we layed down our beds and everyone from my parents sometimes dad would work late and my sister and baby brother would be watching all the shows like dexter powerpuff and sheep. However when everyone would be sleeping I was the only one awake to watch this show late 2 am and was alawaus excited 😊. This show was my favorite late night cartoon. It has created great memories for me. ❤

Very "slice of life". It was pretty mellow and underrated show.

Definitely a show that you remember watching as a kid but not many people speak about it. Thank you for this video, I remember watching this whenever I'd go to the hospital early in the morning with my mom, it would play on the small crt TV in the lobby lol

So cool someone has finally done a video about this show. It’s a secret fave of mine. I watched it before going to school. Sad that ‘throwback retro cartoon review’ channels don’t even remember this fun show

I've had the theme music in my head for days and decided to look it up. I was really young when this program was on the air during it's initial run, but even then, i shared the sentiment that it was a much more relaxed affair than most other programs on CN. It never got much air time if i remember correctly, so it was more like a nice treat whenever you caught it.

As a Mike Lu and Og fan. This show deserves a comeback with a revival and maybe a possible movie or prequel tv film

Nice video. I watched the premiere on a Friday 19:00 time slot. I remember an important promo campaign by Cartoon Network Latin America. But for some reason, I wasn't hooked. The theme song was really catchy, and the animation looked good. But it wasn't not an "adventure" or an "everyday life" cartoon. I seem to remember that in the Latin dub Mike was _stranded_ , not exchanged. I thought at the time Mike didn't looked quite "girly", and for an Latin American audience maybe her name sounded a bit odd. I don't think _Mike, Lou, & Og_ aged that well 25 years later, but that whole era of TV will always have a special spot on my memory, and that's why I remember this with a warm feeling.

Always said this show would have faired better on Nickelodeon the main reason this show is forgotten compare to the other cartoon cartoons was because CN did not play this show in reruns after it ended in 2001 all the other cartoon cartoons like cow and chicken were still airing in reruns till about 2007 but mike lu an og wasn’t.

What a cartoon show and the nickelodeon counterpart Oh Yeah! Cartoons were truly underrated. So much creativity and experimentation, they would never let that fly nowadays

I had the song in my head for years but could NEVER find it it was a DECENT show!! Alfred is the dad; Margery? (not sure of spelling) Is the wife (same name as marge Simpson) ; The old man who lives in the cave; is called Old Queeks also mentioned a few times; Wendel is Lu's dad; the ' mayor of the island' (they mentioned their names a fair few times :) ) ONE episode mentioned Lu and Og are cousins Love the ed credit song too aha

Yes I remember the show. I was born in 2000 and I miss half part of cartoon cartoons. When I was three years old, I just only watch it for only 10 seconds mainly because it didn’t felt like a Cartoon Network show and felt too odd and bland and slapstick wasn’t there. To me, it felt like a show that came from nickelodeon and the design really reminds me of the Rugrats and Ahh real monsters. And I think it’s because of the weird sketchy design that feels undone. Now I’m 23 and I decided to watch Cartoon Network shows that were underrated that didn’t gain a lot of attention and Mike Lu and Og is a perfect example. I have decided to watch a lot of these Cartoon Network shows because there’s been a lot of crazy stuff that’s going on my family and I didn’t feel like watching it at the moment. Now I have watch couple episodes and I have to say I actually love the show so much and I’m still finishing it. I just like The designs and I’m more of a crazy art freak such as posters, art and even cartoons. I would love to see a revival for the show it needs a lot of love because the show is damn great and it’s totally better than today’s corny, atrocious cringe and disgraceful shows that’s on Cartoon Network😂 overall the show is a 10 out of 10!!! PS: I’ve also developed a huge massive crush on Mike because of her looks, redhead and her cute voice. She gets even cuter when she gets irritated or scared. Ahhh I miss those days with cartoon Network😂

First discovered this show in 2007. Enjoyed it ever since

I love this show but it’s too bad not everyone remember this show.

Nice video . this is still one of my fav shows , and I keep re watching it just to make me feel good .

The voice actress for Mike also voiced Adam Lyon in My Gym Parter Is A Monkey.

Mike, Lu, and Og kind of remind me of As Told By Ginger. Maybe it's the art style.

I probably haven't thought about this show since I last saw it as a kid. Can't wait to check out the theme song / show intro!

Nice! I'm new to your channel and i love your content! I hope you do a video on Sheep in the Big City and Time Squad. They're my favorite obscure CN shows.

Man I love your channel hope you do more cartoon network videos

It should be noted that this had Charles Swenson, the Swenson of Murakami Wolf Swenson that worked on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The old man's name is Queeks

I want a hairless cat solely to name it queeks.

This show was aired in the Philippines from the mid-2000s (2003-2005), its setting reminds me of my country the closes is my grandmother beach house.

Happy 24th Anniversary to Mike, Lu & Og

In response to the saying that the old man never had a name, I always thought his name was Queeks. Not sure why, maybe they mentioned it once.

THE CHILD IN ME WANTS A 2023 REMAKE OF THIS!! WITH THE SAME ANIMATION STYLE!!!!

You deserve more views

Kinda looks like MONA THE VAMPIIIIIIIIRE!

Toonrifictariq would appreciate this video

Aww you didn't bring up that Nika Futterman voices Luna Loud from Loud House.

Favorites: Mike Lu and Og, Wild thorn berries, Courage the cowardly dog and Roccos Modern life.

What's the episode where Wendell scares an ostrich?

We could use some more mellow cartoons (for kids and adults alike)

Watch just watching this yesterday

i still remember the pet turtles name- Sir Lancelot

This show looks like it'd be better on Nickelodeon

MLO came out at the wrong time; the Powerhouse era was absolutely stacked. Getting good timeslots was at its most competitive and it was simply no match for Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo, PPG, EENE, Courage, etc. Especially with Nickelodeon adding the juggernaut that is Spongebob, CN had to put on their absolute best at those valuable timeslots. If it came out during the City era when things were more opened up it might have fared better.

I hated it when it came out. Now i love it.

Nice

Are you forgetting that Mike's voice actor also voice coocoo loca from mickey mouse I think.

I love this show Mike Lu and Og

12:58 Margery 13:00 Queeks

I wonder if Gen Z knows about this show ?

Eh. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't that good. I say it was ok in my opinion.

I watched this when i was a kid, it was bad

I hate this show because Mike and Og messed around & had kids and cursed us with the island boys

This show was boring. Every episode was the same thing. The islanders see something totally normal and freak out then Mike says "Oh that this thing we have in the city". Then Og proceeds to try to make it available on the island and fails.
