The Country Mouse and the City Mouse Adventures is an English-language animated TV series originating from France, Canada and the United States that aired on HBO from March 2, 1997 to October 28, 1998. The show follows the adventures of two cousin mice, Emily from the country and Alexander from the city, who go on adventures around the world in the early 20th century, usually to stop the evil rat No-Tail No-Goodnik.
The Country Mouse and the City Mouse Adventures was originally produced as a 26-episode series costing US$9 million. Production partners Germany's Ravensburger; Reader's Digest in the United States; and CINAR (now Cookie Jar Group), who contributed US$6 million towards the original project's funding.
The show's main characters first appeared in the 1993 HBO special, The Country Mouse and the City Mouse: A Christmas Tale. It was loosely based on the classic fable by Aesop.
Reruns of the show aired on the Cookie Jar Toons block on This TV until September 23, 2011, and weekend mornings in Ireland on RTÉ Two's The Den, usually at 7:15 a.m. However, all CINAR references in these broadcasts have been replaced by Cookie Jar references, but when Netflix began to stream season 1-2 on its "watch instantly" streaming service on February 29, 2012, all CINAR references have been restored.
Direct Source released two DVD volumes of the show on February 27, 2007. Season 1 is also available on iTunes.
Mill Creek Entertainment released The Country Mouse and the City Mouse Adventures - 26 Mice Tales Around The World on August 4, 2015 on DVD for Region 1. This 2-disc collection features all 26 episodes from the second and third seasons on DVD for the very first time.
