T.C.'s gang of feline friends is always there to help him with his tricks and scams. And to evade Officer Dibble. They are a loyal bunch indeed. Here's a little information on each member of the gang:

Benny the Ball: Trusted and highly regarded by T.C. and the gang, he’s sweet, chubby, cute and good-natured. He and T.C are very close friends. In the Spanish version he was named Benito Bodoque (Blob).

Choo Choo: Always wearing his white turtleneck, Choo Choo is one of T.C.’s right-hand men. He was Cucho in the Spanish version.

Brain: This cat is the total opposite of his name. The Brain is rather slow but well-meaning and cute. In the Spanish translation, he was named Demostenes (as in Demosthenes, the great Greek statesman and orator. Like the Brain, he suffered from a speech impediment.)

Fancy-Fancy: He is quite the ladies man. A sweet talker, he’s T.C.’s deputy. In the Spanish version he was renamed Panza (Tummy).

Spook: This suave cat T.C.’s assistant. He has a striking resemblance to Fancy-Fancy. He too is a smooth talker. Spook was Espanto (Spook) in the Spanish version.

T.C. in other countires

As I mentioned previously, T.C. was renamed for the Spanish-speaking audience as Don Gato y su Pandilla. In the United Kingdom, the series was renamed Boss Cat because Top Cat was the name of a cat food brand. In the late 1990s the series was shown with its original name after the brand was retired.

In addition to Spanish, the series was translated into several other languages, including Portuguese, French, Italian, German, and Japanese.

The Movie

The Hanna-Barbera Studios produced a television movie based on the adventures of T.C. and the gang. The movie was titled Top Cat and the Beverly Hills Cats, and it premiered in 1987. The plot of the movie revolves around T.C. and his gang trying to do good deeds and helping a young girl reclaim her inheritance.

Interestingly, for this movie, Hoagy's Alley was relocated to an area near the posh neighborhood of Beverly Hills.

Appearances in other shows

T.C. (along with all the Hanna-Barbera characters) appeared in Yogi’s Treasure Hunt in 1985. He reappeared in 1991 in Yo, Yogi, an NBC animated series featuring Yogi Bear.

T.C. also appeared in Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law. And, he and the gang made a cameo appearance in The Powerpuff Girls show.
