Dexter's Laboratory

Dexter's Laboratory (Dexter's Lab for short) is an animated series which was first produced by Hanna Barbera for the Cartoon Network. The original pilot appeared as an episode of the anthology series What a Cartoon!, and a series soon followed. The premise of the cartoon involves a short child genius with a Eastern European accent named Dexter who has a secret laboratory connected to his bedroom. He is almost constantly in conflict with his ditzy older sister, Dee Dee.

His arch-nemesis is Mandark, another child genius with an irritating laugh. Often Mandark, through trickery or by coincidence, gets credit for Dexter's achievements.

Also appearing regularly in the series are Dexter's father and mother.

In addition to the series there is an hour-long special episode entitled Dexter's Laboratory: Ego Trip, in which Dexter travels through time and meets several of his future selves.
