It was a short-lived local show in the 1960s, can't remember which network. And when I say short I mean only a month or so. It involved, oddly enough, 3 cats. And a penguin. The penguin didn't do much, but the 3 cats had wacky adventures of the sitcom kind. There was a supporting character, an invisible cat named Joey. The show had a live audience, which was unusual for a local broadcast. The cats were given bad voiceovers by hammy actors. Like Rango or My Mother the Car, I have only hazy memories of this. Is this is a dream or did anyone else out there watch this thing?

I remember it
Submitted by Sarah on Sat, 12/22/2007 - 7:09am.I remember it but I was never allowed to watch a whole episode because our dog always starting howling. Even when we put him outside, he howled and barked so loudly that neighbors complained.
The theme music was catchy. In fact now I can't get it out of my head.

I even had a lunch box with that catch phrase on it, handy when the teacher would ask me if I did something wrong, all I had to do was hold up the lunch box and everyone in the class room would shout that out.
Of course, then I really got in trouble.

Yes, as I recall parents and teachers were not too thrilled about the "Joey did it!" phrase. That probably had something to do with why "3 Cats and a Penguin" had such a short lifetime on the air. I understand there are no complete tapes or film of Brakeman Bill and Crazy Donkey, so I suppose the same can be said for "3 Cats and a Penguin." Those are programs that will only live on in our memory.
Another obscure bit
