Synopsis
Oggy, an anthropomorphic cat, would prefer to spend his days watching television and eating, but is continuously pestered by three roaches: Joey, Marky and Dee Dee. The cockroaches' slapstick mischief ranges from plundering Oggy's refrigerator to hijacking the train he just boarded. In many situations Oggy is also helped by Jack, who is more violent and short-tempered than him and is also annoyed by the cockroaches. Bob, a short-tempered bulldog, also appears in the show, and is Oggy's neighbor.

Trivia about Oggy and the Cockroaches
The project dates back to 1997; shortly after the success of Space Goofs, Marc du Pontavice approached Jean‑Yves Raimbaud with a specific creative brief: "think about what Tom and Jerry would look like in the year 2000." Raimbaud responded by designing a blue cat (later named Oggy) and replacing the classic mouse with three mischievous cockroaches—effectively inverting the usual predator-prey dynamic, and thus Oggy and the Cockroaches was created.
The first name of each of the three cockroaches, Joey, Dee Dee and Marky, refers to three of the members of the punk rock group called the Ramones.
Oggy, for his part, owes his first name to the famous singer Iggy Pop as well as the character of Ziggy Stardust created by David Bowie.
The first season cost approximately 9 million euros to produce, with production costs subsequently decreasing in later seasons.
After the second season, a third and fourth season were commissioned somewhat later, in early 2008 and 2011 respectively, following the first two seasons' meteoric rise to international success.
After a four-year gap in production, season 5 was released in mid-2017 with two more seasons coming later.
