'''''Funky Cops''''' is a French animated series about two cops in San Francisco during the 1970s. In the US it was licensed by 4Kids Entertainment and aired on the Fox Box (later renamed 4Kids TV) but was cancelled quickly due to dismal ratings, becoming an online exclusive in the US. The rest of the 4Kids-dubbed series was later seen online at 4KidsTV.com, but as of May 2009, it has been removed. The voice actor of Captain Dobbs used to have all the episodes that aired on Fox Box on TiVo, but it got taken away from them. The original French-English dub currently appears on Kabillion on Demand on some services, most commonly Charter, as well as various channels on YouTube.
