Yakkity Yak is an AustralianCanadian animated television series created by Mark Gravas that ran on Teletoon in Canada and on Nickelodeon in Australia from November 9, 2002 to December 12, 2003. The series was known for its surreal humor and featured animation incongruous with Nickelodeon's typical style. The story centers around an anthropomorphic yak named Yakkity who aspires to become a famous comedian and his friends, Keo (an anthropomorphic pineapple) and Lemony (a young human girl).

A modified version of the 1958 song Yakety Yak by The Coasters (in which children sing some portions) is used as the series' theme song.

Yakkity Yak debuted on Canada's Teletoon on January 4, 2003, with the last episode airing on January 28, 2004. It also aired on BBC Kids. On January 17, 2004, it was added to the Nicktoons Network schedule for a few years, but it was removed from the rotation on October 2, 2007.


Previously known as "The Yakking".

The show was nominated for a Leo Award for "Best Musical Score" in 2004.
