About What's Michael? (TV)

Looking for background on What's Michael? (TV)? This comedy series by Daume (1988) starts out like this. The setup: Michael is a fat orange cat who lives with a pair of well-meaning but very stupid humans who fondly imagine he is their pet. But Michael's own daily life is rich in all kinds of little incidents and upheavals-avoiding local bad cat Nyazilla, a monster against whom Michael knows he'll always come out worse, scrounging food from local stores.

Another thread: Michael also has a fantasy life even his fellow feline Garfield would envy, with cat corporations, cat nightclubs, and his own imitation of a dancing American megastar also called Michael.

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series.
