#COW AND CHICKEN MATH FULL#
Although most cartoons in the series had never gone beyond one short, Hanna-Barbera had decided to turn Cow and Chicken into a full series (possibly since the Emmy Award nomination of the original short), following many letters from fans asking for more Cow and Chicken cartoons. Cow and Chicken premiered on the "What a Cartoon!" series in 1995. Feiss submitted three ideas for the series to Larry Huber, the series' executive producer. Later, Feiss was called to submit any ideas he had for the series What A Cartoon!, a series composed of various cartoon shorts from various creators and writers. Feiss was a cartoonist who had worked with Hanna-Barbera and related projects since 1978. The idea of Cow and Chicken first existed as a story that David Feiss had made for his daughter. The episode, "Happy Meat" showed the ghosts of a pair of Cow and Chicken's ancestors, a male farmer married to a female chicken. They have an uncle Longhorn Steer, who appears in "Professor Longhorn Steer". This is all that is ever offered in explanation, though there is one hint in the episode "The Day I'm Born" that Cow is adopted, and Chicken's parentage has been told about in the episode, "Which Came First?", when Mom sits on an egg and says, "Oh, boy, this brings back memories!"Ĭhicken and Cow's extended family consists of various other types of animals, including Cousin Boneless, who is a boneless chicken (unable to walk or get up from the floor) Snail Boy, a snail Cousin Black Sheep, a sheep and Sow, an evil pig. David Feiss approached this problem in the series's opening title sequence: Mama had a chicken/Mama had a cow/Dad was proud/He didn't care how.
#COW AND CHICKEN MATH HOW TO#
The creators were faced with the question of whether and how to explain the scenario of where Cow and Chicken came from.
In the episode "Which Came First," when Mom sits on the TV and laughs, her body appears to have an upper half. In the same episode, Mom's shadow appears with the upper half of her body cut off. In the episode "Cow and Chicken Reclining", when Chicken is digging in the closet and pulls out what would be their upper halves, Cow refers to them as her science project. In the pilot episode, " No Smoking", their bodies have no upper halves. Chicken and Cow are brother and sister, who have human parents whose faces are never seen in an episode.
