Telecat(1983)

Telecat is a Belgian-French news parody series created by surrealist artist Roland Topor and director Henri Xhonneux. The show is hosted by Groucha, a perpetually bandaged tomcat, and Lola, an ostrich, who deliver absurdist takes on current events alongside a cast of sentient objects. The series embraces a surreal philosophy: that gluons—the real elementary particles that bind quarks together—function as the spiritual essence of all things. This blend of science, comedy, and visual invention makes Telecat a uniquely bizarre exploration of how we process information and understand the world around us.
