Mister Go, or alternatively Mr. Go was a mini-series animated through Claymation. It's best remembered for having been broadcast during commercial breaks in the now-defunct Argentinian channel Magic Kids since 1996 up to the early 2000s.

The episodes lasted about two and a half minutes, and stars a red-colored clay character (Mr. Go), with a short fuse and who always attempts to do things in an illegal or wrong way. He would always be accompanied by his dog Bip, who'd often lecture him and warn him of the consequences of his antics, but Mr. Go would never pay him attention. In the end, his antics would always backfire on him spectacularly, and most often he would be discovered by a policeman, a guard or some other person, forcing him and his dog to run away to escape the consequences.

Similar to Pingu, the characters would talk in a random language that's composed mostly of gibberish while occassionally throwing one or two real words in English or other languages here and there, and the sound effects would also be clearly mouthed into the shorts.

The show has been largely lost, though some episodes can still be found on YouTube. Also, about total of 60 episodes from the South Korean Dub can be found in internet. Not to be confused with the South-Korean film about a certain gorilla, whose name is also Mr. Go.


Mister Go. provides examples of:

  • Accessory-Wearing Cartoon Animal: Mr. Go is implied to be a human despite being completely red. He also doesn't really wear clothes, except for occasions where he puts on a swimsuit or is shown to be wearing an underwear.
  • Alcohol-Induced Stupidity: Not that he was ever a sharpest tool in the shed, but after getting absolutely wasted from a party at a bar, he starts singing loudly in a public street during broad daylight. Bip points to a quiet sign, but he of course ignores it. He takes the trumpet from a quiet sign, but when it doesn't work, he throws it in a trash can. This gives him an idea, and he starts banging the trash can lid while signing loudly. Bip once again tries to get him to stop, but he just stuffs him in the trash can and continues. Even when a police officer shows up to put an end, he starts singing to officer's face. The officer, who had just about enough, stuff him in the trash can and pushes it away.
  • Always a Bigger Fish: Whenever Mr. Go overpowers a small creature, someone bigger then him will rescue the said creature and put an end.
  • Amazing Technicolor Population: Mr. Go is completely red, which is pretty weird given that most "human" characters look fairly normal compared to him.
  • Animal Disguise: To catch some chickens in a chicken coop, Mr. Go disguises himself as a rooster. It somehow works and fools the chickens, but it doesn't fool the rooster who is implied to be the leader of the chicken coop.

  • Ash Face: Mr. Go often ends up this way when using explosives.
  • Bad People Abuse Animals: Besides Bip, Mr. Go will almost always do something nasty to animals when he sees them. To name a few, he tries to strangle a monkey, a turkey, and a chicken, dresses up as matador and picks fight with a cow when it refuses to give him milk, draws horizontal stripes on a zebra's body, and feeds all kinds of things to an ostrich despite a sign saying not to. Fortunately, it always comes to bite him in the ass.
  • Bait-and-Switch: In an episode where Mr. Go visits an island via an inflatable motor boat, he ends up crashing the boat. He then dresses up like a pirate for some reason and begins to cut down trees to build a raft. Bip points out to him that the place is a national park, but Mr. Go shrugs him off. Then, a scary looking person in a mask (assumed to be a caricature of a native) comes in to scare him and to order him to leave. After the duo leaves, the "native" takes of his mask to reveal that he was a park ranger in disguise.
  • Bandage Mummy: At the end of the New Year episode, Mr. Go ends up flying off (accidentally) with one of his rockets, crashing and exploding. The final scene shows him bedridden and completely bandaged as he toasts with Bip.

  • Did Not Think This Through: One episode has Mr. Go seeing a guy getting money from an ATM and accidentally dropping his card. He picks it up and inserts it thinking he can use it to get some money for himself. But since he didn't see the password, he inserts numbers at random, and the ATM obviously rejects it. He ends up getting angry and punches out the ATM's screen, cracking it, right when the card's owner comes back to retrieve it (but not before bonking Mr. Go on the head), shortly followed by a police officer who's not happy to see the cracked ATM and gives Mr. Go a ticket.

After beating up and shooing away Bip for peeing on him, he goes in to take photos. After photos are done, Bip sees them and starts laughing. To Mr. Go's shock, the photo was of him changing in the bush clad in his underwear. Furious, he puts on a viking costume (for some reason), pulls out a morning star, and start smashing the photo booth. He manages to completely demolish it, but an angry policeman comes and demands explanation. He tries to feign ignorance, but the remnant of the photo booth prints out a photo of Mr. Go smashing the photo booth, which causes the policeman to wrap a long ticket around Mr. Go and bellowing at him to get lost.
  • Dub Name Change: Even though the intro where Bip poses with his name remains, Bip is never called by his name in the South Korean dub (which is dubbed with actual sentences instead of gibberish). He is just referred to as dog.

  • Funny Animal Anatomy: In an episode where a policeman catches Mr. Go dumping paint cans in a pond full of fish, he points his gun at him and orders him to take out the paint bucket at once. He then orders Mr. Go to leave after putting the sign he knocked down up again. This causes the fish in the pond to cheer for him, while clapping with hands.
  • Get-Rich-Quick Scheme: Some episodes involve Mr. Go attempting to get money easily through illegal means. One is through a boxing match, another in a singing contest, and yet another had him make a machine to print fake bills.
    • In the boxing episode, he puts in nuts and bolts in the boxing gloves to make it more heavier, and proceeds to take a swing at a boxing champion, which knocks him out.

Unfortunately for him, the police pokes him with a needle and he deflates like a balloon.

But a policeman sees him and pulls an exact same stunt on him. Mr. Go tries to run, but the policeman catches him, chews him out, and sticks a ticket on his face before letting him go.
  • Human Pincushion: The natural result of Mr. Go trying to pick a fight with a porcupine (inside its cave, no less).
  • Implausible Deniability: Mr. Go often tries to weasel himself out of trouble by feigning ignorance, despite the fact that the police just saw him do it and there is no one else around.
  • Institutional Apparel: In one episode, Mr. Go, who is working as a water technician, is tasked with disposing wastewater. He receives directions to where to dispose it, but he of course ignores it and just disposes it on a field. The dirty water immediately kills all vegetation in that field, and a policeman arrives and demands an explanation. Mr. Go denies it was him, but the policeman does not fall for it. The policeman puts a red and white striped pillbox hat (with number 13 on it), a ball and chain manacle on his leg, and hands him a shovel before ordering him to clean up his own mess.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: There are few rare times where Mr. Go's anger is justified. Of course, how he expresses his anger and tries to take solve the issue is a completely different question...
    • The intro shows him posing for some photos, when Bip suddenly pees on him. Naturally this makes him angry and he attacks the dog for it.
    • In an episode where Mr. Go stays in a cabin, he tries to light a fire on the fireplace, only for it to create smokes. He goes out to see what's the problem and sees that a stork has created a nest right on top of the chimney. He tells off the storks, but they fire back at him and refuses to move. He tries to get the storks to move by poking them with a stick from under the chimney, only for the stork to grab the stick and slam him against the fire place. This causes him to whip out a rifle to shoot the storks, only for a forest ranger to stop him.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: The short's whole point is seeing how Mr. Go's antics backfire on him, either due to his own clumsiness or not listening to his dog.
    • Mr. Go has a bottle on his hand and is listening to music through headphones. He casually litters, and ignores Bip when he tells him off. Mr. Go then throws the bottle down a manhole, only for it to come right back up and hit him on the face. He picks up a nearby construction sign and throws it in the manhole and laughs. His victory is short lived as it once again comes back up and hits him on the face. Furious, he brings a trashcan full of garbage, dumps the entire content down, and and tapes the cover shut. But a construction worker comes out of a different manhole, grabs him by the neck, drops him down the manhole, and orders him to pick up every piece of trash he threw down.
    • Mr. Go parks his car and pays the parking meter. He sits on a nearby bench to read. But time passes and the parking meter needs to be paid again. Mr. Go ignores it, but when the parking meter plays cymbals, bangs drums, and loudly asks for more money, this annoys Mr. Go enough to twist the machine into a coil and even make it spit out its collected money. Unfortunately, a police officer catches him on the act and not only makes him put the money back, but also issues him a ticket.
    • Subverted in a dog competition episode. In this episode, for once, Mr. Go doesn't actually do anything bad. He tries to enter Bip in a dog competition and even gives him a nice grooming to make him presentable. Thanks to his effort, Bip wins the competition. But as he was about to receive his prize, Bip sneezes, undoing all of Mr. Go's work. For some reason, this makes the host of the competition mad, and he slams the trophy in Mr. Go's head and kicks him out.
    • Also subverted in the hunting episode. Throughout the episode, all Mr. Go did was trying to hunt. When Mr. Go sends out mating calls to hunt, he ends up getting attacked by a flock of birds. He also almost gets shot when the bush he was tracking turned out to be another hunter in disguise.
  • Love Makes You Dumb: Granted that he's not the smartest brick in the block, but yeah, reading a magazine of beautiful women doesn't help.
  • Loves Me Not: In the same episode, after serenading, vandalizing on a wall, Mr. Go ignores a sign that prohibits flower picking and goes into a flower garden to do this. But when he doesn't like the result, he starts picking more flower. Then, a woman hands him a flower and he's delighted, only for the "woman" to reveal that "she's" actually a male cop wearing a wig as disguise, who promptly hands Mr. Go a ticket.
  • Low Clearance: In the Venice episode, Mr. Go steals a gondola. A police motorboat chases him and when he tries to escape, he's too busy looking behind to notice the low bridge he's approaching.
  • Mama Bear: In the episode where Mr. Go visits a safari, a little monkey on top of a tree throws a banana peel on Mr. Go's face. Furious, Mr. Go cuts down the tree despite Bip's warning. Mr. Go proceeds to try to strangle the crying monkey, only for him to get grabbed by the neck by the monkey's mother, who is bigger then Mr. Go. After seeing that Mr. Go had made her child cry and destroyed their home, she proceeds to peel off Mr. Go's face like a banana and throws him away.
  • Never My Fault: Occasionally, when questioned about what he did, Mr. Go would try to pin the blame on Bip. Not that it ever worked for him, of course.
  • New Year Has Come: There's an episode set on New Year's eve, where Mr. Go has a party with Bip. Bip prepares the champagne, while Mr. Go brings out boxful of fireworks, which leads to shenanigans.
  • No-Sell: In an episode Mr. Go pretends to be a soldier after watching the movie Rombo, he holds Bip hostage and cuts down bamboos to make a cage for him. Seeing this, a police officer begins to write him a ticket. Mr. Go aims his gun behind the police officer, who just casually stuffs a ticket in the barrier of the rifle. Angered, Mr. Go pulls out a bazooka, only for the police to pull out a cannon.
  • No Smoking: Averted. One episode has Mr. Go entering a bar and deciding to smoke a few cigars while he waits for his drink. The owner at first doesn't allow it because he's in the "No Smokers" section, so he takes him to a table where he can do so. Mr. Go pulls out an enormous hookah and starts smoking it despite Bip's warning. Soon, he gets sick from it and the owner, who had quite enough of his antics by then, kicks him out.
  • Pet the Dog: Literal example. Most people, especially police officers and security guards, who call out Mr. Go on his illegal antics and kick him out or punish him are nice to Bip. Even Mr. Go, who normally spends majority of his time ignoring or berating his dog occasionally has shown to be nice to Bip.
  • Polka-Dot Disease: Mr. Go sees several mushrooms on the ground and decides to eat them, but not before making Bip have some. Bip turns out fine, so he makes an impromptu sandwich and eats a mushroom. He develops blue spots all over him and feels unwell. Fortunately for him, going number 2 behind the bush instantly made him feel better. Also a case of Truth in Television, since picking and eating wild mushroom can get a person very sick, and mushrooms that are harmless to animals can still be toxic to humans.
  • Produce Pelting: Happens twice to Mr. Go. One was during a singing contest when the recorded cassette Mr. Go was passing off as his own voice breaks down. In another episode, Mr. Go starts singing loudly in a middle of the night after watching an Opera, causing people to throw water and a trashcan on his head.
  • Repetitive Audio Glitch: When Mr. Go tries to enter a singing contest, he tries to cheat by hiding a cassette player in his pocket. It naturally glitches out at the worst possible moment, exposing his cheating.
  • Right Behind Me: In one episode where Mr. Go is running his election campaign, he drives around looking for places to put up his posters. He finds a nice empty wall, which also has clear sign saying "No Posters". Bip tells him that and Mr. Go of course ignores it and proceeds to plaster it all over with posters. Bip tries to tell him that there's a policeman behind him, but Mr. Go does not understand and turns around to stick the poster directly on the policeman's face. The moment he does that he realizes what Bip was warning him about. The policeman is obviously not happy about that and not only gives him a ticket, but also orders him to take down all of his posters. While not shown, it is highly likely that this action would have costed him any chance of winning that election.
  • Rule of Three: In an episode where Mr. Go boards on a train, he makes a complete mess train coach with his food and drinks. A ticket inspector comes in and seeing the mess, he asks Mr. Go to clean them up. Mr. Go drops a food that was lying on the seat on to the ground, but the unamused inspector orders him to clean everything up. Mr. Go then gathers everything up and throws everything out the window. The inspector stops the train and tells Mr. Go off for the third time. This time, he orders the duo off the train, forcing the duo to walk along the rail.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: In an episode where Mr. Go visits an orchard, he starts picking fruits despite a sign saying not to. After picking basketful of fruits and tries to eat them, the farmer comes and asks him to pay before he does so. Mr. Go is handed a large bill, which he has no way of paying for. He tries to run, but collides into a tree, causing piles of fruits to fall on him. He quickly shoves a fruit into his mouth, and quickly runs off as the irate farmer demands that he pays.
  • Serenade Your Lover: Played with. After Mr. Go falls in love after seeing a picture of a beautiful woman in a magazine, he falls in love and starts serenading his love, despite no one else (except Bip) is around.
  • Speaking Simlish: The "dialogues" in this shorts are bunch of gibberish with few English words thrown here and there. Subverted in the Korean dub, where all the dialogues have been dubbed with proper sentences.
  • Strictly Formula: Barring a few exceptions, every short follows this sequence: Mr. Go decides to do something, Bip warns him he shouldn't, Mr. Go follows through with it anyway and suffers the consequences, and gets caught by someone who gives him a ticket, forcing them to run away.
  • Stuff Blowing Up: Mr. Go will often resort to using explosives (don't ask where he got them) to get what he wants. Of course, it always backfires on him.
    • After being hit by a vending machine twice, he destroys the vending machine by stuffing it with explosives. Still not satisfied, he tries to destroy another vending machine despite Bip's warning. Unfortunately for him, a policeman happened to be in that vending machine and he get's just his desserts as the policeman stuffs his mouth with explosives and threaten to light it.
  • Talking Animal: Bip, and most animals that appeared on the shorts seemed able to "speak" human language just fine.
  • Threw My Bike on the Roof: An episode has a boy asking Mr. Go to return his football after he accidentally throws it out of his reach. Mr. Go however decides to claim it for himself to play and refuses to give it back.
  • Too Dumb to Live: Pretty much all the bad things that happen to Mr. Go could have been avoided if he had common sense.
    • In one episode, he goes hiking with Bip. Bip tries to tell him that the shorter path is closed due to the bridge being destroyed. Mr. Go of course ignored him, and changes the arrow on the sign. What does he do once he gets to the broken bridge? Proceeds to not only climb it, but also starts jumping on it to prove it's safe. Needless to say, it immediately collapses.
    • In one episode, while driving his car, Mr. Go comes across a level crossing and demands that the railway employee let him pass. The employee refuses and tells him to wait, which causes Mr. Go to start yelling, honking his horns, and demanding to cross. The employee warns him again to wait. Dissatisfied, Mr. Go orders Bip to manually raise to gate arm. After Bip reluctantly does so, Mr. Go tries to cross, only for the gate arms to come down and essentially trapping him in a middle of the railroad, where a train is coming directly at him. Mr. Go screams for help, and the employee hearing the commotion, comes out and sees Mr. Go on the railroad. He demands Mr. Go to get out of his car, and Mr. Go manages to get out in the nick of time as train crosses the railroad. Unfortunately, his car wasn't so lucky, as it's been cleanly chopped off in half. Mr. Go is dismayed about his broken car, but the employee calls him out on his extremely reckless behavior, and Mr. Go is forced to drive away in his half car.
    • Mr. Go sees a rabbit and decides to hunt it. The rabbit proceeds to flee to an active military zone. Bip warns his master about the place, but Mr. Go just knocks down all the warning signs and continues the pursuit. Because this is a military zone, mortar shell flys all over the duo. Anyone with the half the brain would have immediately gotten out of there. But what does Mr. Go do? Proceeds to fire his gun towards the direction where mortars are coming. More mortar drops and fortunately, the duo are found my a soldier and the rabbit, who happens to be the mascot of that base. Upon learning that Mr. Go tried to hunt the rabbit, the soldier bellows at him to leave, causing the duo to run away while occasionally falling into a bomb filled holes.
    • While on a gas station, Mr. Go starts filling up his car. He doesn't pay much attention to it, and proceeds to light a match for his pipe, while oil is leaking all over . Fortunately, the owner dowses him with fire extinguisher and makes him clean up his mess after chewing him out.
    • In an episode where Mr. Go goes to a safari, he tries to get out of his car to take a photo of a lion, despite a clear sign that prohibits that. Fortunately for him, the lion was docile enough to just leave when Mr. Go approached him.
    • In the New Year episode, setting off a fireworks rocket indoors is already stupid enough, but then he tries to set off a bigger one, thankfully deciding to launch it out the window. Then when the fuse runs out, it seems to be a dud, and Mr. Go angrily grabs the rocket and shakes it to make it work, and only then does the rocket take off, with Mr. Go along for the ride. No points given for guessing who had to spend the new year in a hospital.
    • Mr. Go decides to go fishing in a pond next to a sign that clearly forbids such activity. He manages to catch lots of fish, only for the sign to reveal that it was a disguised police all along. The officer orders Mr. Go to put the fish back, and Mr. Go complies. When the officer asks if Mr. Go returned all the fish, Mr. Go pulls one out of the pocket and blows raspberry at the police. This causes the police to pull his gun at him, which causes Mr. Go to immediately drop the fish, run, and get shot couple times.
  • Villain Protagonist: The protagonist Mr. Go is a cantankerous and childish man who engages on various activities that are at best selfish and annoying, and at worst downright illegal.
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: Mr. Go and Bip often do this, justified due to them being made of clay.
  • Waving Signs Around: In one episode, Mr. Go dumps buckets of paint into a pond despite a warning sign not to. The fish living in the pond yells at him and even holds up a sign that says "BOO!! Mr. Go".
  • What the Hell, Hero?: Using the term "hero" very broadly, Bip will always call Mr. Go out whenever he resorts to illegal means. Mr. Go obviously pays him no mind, and it's always up to people like the police, firefighter, and pretty much anything that can overpower Mr. Go to call him out again and puts an end.
