The Astronut Show is an animated TV series, produced by the Terrytoons animation studio. It first aired on August 23, 1965. Each episode included an episode of Astronut, Hashimoto-san, and Luno The White Stallion. Astronut first appeared on the Deputy Dawg series. He is a squat, childlike, short, friendly green alien in a tiny flying saucer who frequently gets into mischief on Earth. He has a human friend called Oscar Mild, who was, as his name suggested, a soft-spoken character. Oscar works in an office for Mr. Nicely, whose temperament is the exact opposite of his name.
