Watch Dilbert

Dilbert is an American animated television series based on the comic strip of the same name by Scott Adams. Produced by Adelaide Productions, the show ran for two seasons from January 1999 to July 2000. The Minisode Network, a website for viewing condensed televised shows, aired episodes of Dilbert in 2008.

The show stars Daniel Stern as the titular character Dilbert, a nerdy and pathologically honest engineer who works for a dysfunctional corporation called Path-E-Tech Management. Dilbert's colleagues include Chris Elliott as the cynical and lazy programmer Dogbert, Larry Miller as the incompetent manager Dilbert answers to, and Kathy Griffin as the receptionist who is constantly on the phone with her family drama.

Tom Kenny voices Ratbert, a lab rat who was transformed into a human by an experimental serum. Jim Wise voices Wally, the lazy and unpunctual co-worker who is always finding ways to avoid work. Jackie Hoffman takes on the role of Asok, an intern who is constantly trying to impress his boss but is always outsmarted by the rest of the employees.

Tress MacNeille plays Dilbert's love interest and fellow engineer, Alice. Gary Kroeger voices Ted, the sycophantic sales representative who is always trying to sell Dilbert's inventions. Gordon Hunt voices Bob Bastard, the shady consulting firm owner who is always trying to sell Path-E-Tech Management on his latest scam. Finally, Maurice LaMarche voices the Pointy-Haired Boss, the incompetent and self-absorbed manager who has no idea how to run a company.

The show's animation style is heavily influenced by the design of the original comic strip, with characters depicted as stick figures with exaggerated features. The characters are often placed in surreal or otherworldly situations, such as when Dilbert discovers a portal to an alternate universe where everything is perfect and he is the most successful person in the company.

The series served as a biting satire of corporate culture and bureaucratic inefficiency, with episodes tackling topics like office politics, outsourcing, and the obsession with productivity. Many episodes center around the office's attempts to develop a new product, only for it to consistently fail due to mishaps or bureaucratic red tape.

Despite its critical acclaim, Dilbert was ultimately canceled after two seasons due to low ratings. However, it remains a cult favorite among fans of the comic strip and its biting critique of corporate life.

Dilbert is a series that ran for 2 seasons (30 episodes) between January 25, 1999 and on The Minisode Network
