The show's premise takes place in the year 3000 and is focused on two intergalatic bounty hunters Dook and Curtis. Dook is a humanoid mule-dog creature who's extremely stern and vigilant while Curtis is an anthro cat-goat mutant who's more wild and lives on the edge. They both work for the enigmatic sheriff Granny, their main goal being to scavenge across the galaxies and planets to apprehend their number one enemy, Cereal Bob, a pink rabbit who's hellbent on ruling the world always up to another villainous scheme to prove himself.


The official synopsis from both the archived and modern pages from Alphanim/Gamounts website:

A classic buddy show about two intergalactic bounty hunters: Curtis and Dook. Curtis is a superfly cat – goat mutant, he's a severe petrolhead and is always up for a party. Dook is very different, square, very big on rules and discipline. The main opponent of this more than dynamic duo is public enemy Nr1: Cereal Bob. Our space posse will travel from planet to solar system, no black hole is left unturned to find this evil bunny, but no matter how many times they deliver him at Deputy Roscoe's jail he always seems to have found a way to escape in the next episode. As Cereal Bob never works alone, he is always accompanied by a large variety of alien henchmen, depending on the planet he's operating on. The universe being what it is, endless, this gives you an idea about the number of different worlds and situations our two good ol'boys will encounter. The aim of the show is to mix western and sci-fi clichés to end up with something truly original, and of course to make the spectator laugh.
