Mad Jack the Pirate (1998–1999) User Reviews

Most underrares show ever!

This show so undarrated. The best I've seen in my life even though there are only 23 episodes.

Adult jokes are not intended for children. If it was the series intended for adults, it was known by everyone.

Very funny!

Do you think pirates are strong and macho? They sure are, but not Mad Jack. He and his pal Snuck are completely the opposite. And they have bad luck in life. Nothing goes the way it should to be ok for them. And the situations! Not just the this-happens-to-the-average-pirate, but also extraordinary, "modern-day" situations. Imagine Jack at the office as he tries to get his pirate-license back doing actions like parking the ship, firing the gun, an so on. To make matters worse, the "boss" at the office is his nearest enemy...

I enjoyed all the episodes I have seen and had a very good time. This is entertaining, so get ready for tears - laughing instead of crying!

why did it go?

this was the best cartoon ever!!! i missed it for so long, but finally found it...someone had recorded...but i still wish it were on TV or on DVD...some extra oohs and aahs might be so nice, but I LOVE MAD JACK!!! i am a bit disappointed at the lack of information on character voices on IMDb, isn't there anyone who can help? so many voices seem to be familiar, but i am missing the closing credits on EVERY episode! dang blasted! i think this cartoon was geared to the wrong audience and that most of the humour went over children's heads...maybe cartoon networks adult swim could breath some new life into this funny show!!! this is a crap review, but who cares, i just had to say that I LOVE AND WILL ALWAYS LOVE MAD JACK THE PIRATE!!!!! *swoon* *lol*

by the by, beware of the biclops!

Short-lived. But funny as hell.

Damn. I was only able to see sporadic episodes of this Fox Saturday morning cartoon about the silly Mad Jack the Pirate and his hand full of sidekicks.

The humor reminds me of Eek! The Cat (for which Bill Kopp also lends his voice), 'Pepper Anne,' and Spielberg's 'Toonsylvania.' Quick witted and fun for all ages, even someone like me, too old to be watching Saturday morning cartoons. Fox should've done more to try and help it out, because it was a well written, hilarious adventure cartoon and was, at the time, a lot better than most of the Saturday morning cartoon fare (what little still exists).

Short-lived and hard-to-find. Check it out if you can.
