Storyline

Dilbert is a cubicle dwelling employee for a large soulless corporation. Along with his cynical and under-motivated co-workers, he labors fruitlessly under the bone-headed leadership of the Pointy-Haired Boss. Occasionally Dogbert, Dilbert's super-intelligent dog, gets Dilbert caught up in another wild money-making scheme, to Dilbert's regret. Written by Mike Konczewski

Trivia

'Kathy Griffin' was appearing in Suddenly Susan when this show aired, and her NBC contract at the time did not allow her to receive on-screen credit for the voice of Alice. She's mentioned by name in DVD extras for The Complete Series, and interviewed about it, but her name is not in the credits of any episode. See more »

One of the most underrated shows ever made.
21 June 2006 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Dilbert, the animated series, easily lives up to all expectations having come from the most popular comic strip in the world.

Unlike most TV shows, animated or live action, Dilbert actually got better as it went on. It started out good, and became great. It has the same witty 'water-cooler' humor as the comic strip, as well as the traditional 'zaney' antics that most cartoons feature. Although it can be most appreciated by those who have either been a cubical worker, or have close friends or family that were, this show is just as entertaining to those who do not understand what the phrase "ISO 9000" means.

This show could have, and should have, been a long running and successful animated series, just like the comic strip. However, it did not get national exposure (they didn't even air it in Saint Louis--I saw it for the first time in Chicago), and was never picked up by any major networks until Comedy Central featured it late in their Sunday night lineup for a few months. If the show had gotten a decent time-slot on a major network, and had actually been advertised....I think it could have continued on for many years to come.

Hopefully it will make a comeback. Its easily one of the funniest shows ever made.
