About Me

***THIS IS AN UNOFFICIAL FAN PAGE***

'FAMILY DOG' is a Cartoon that originally appeared on the television series "Amazing Stories".

It combined writer/director Brad Bird's ability for cinematic animation, concise storytelling, authentic detailed body movement & closely observed humour with animation designer Tim Burton's penchant for German Expressionism tinged with the Suburban Grotesque.

Original Air Date: February 16, 1987.

As of now, this episode is not on DVD.
So please do your part and help get this thing on Disc!
