Dilbert (thing)

Dilbert made the leap to prime time television in January 1999 on UPN. Scott Adams shocked fans by giving the animated Dilbert a visible mouth, but rather than that most of the characters, humor, and satire from the comic strip made the transition to TV. Sadly, the show never performed as well as UPN hoped and after only two seasons on the air the show was canceled. Luckily Comedy Central acquired the reruns in 2003 and has begun airing them on Saturday mornings. For those who don't like to rise early on the weekend, the entire series was released on DVD in January 2004.
