Weird question for you smart folks.

Okay, I have a dinner riding on this.

Does anyone remember the late 70's or early 80's cartoon that was about a whale ( or maybe a dolphin) that worked in a water park. The whales trainer or sidekick was this little guy that was always getting into trouble somehow.


It wasn't Sid and Marty stuff, it was animated. I don't think it was a big hit obviously!

Am I crazy? Does anyone remember this?

it's objective & irrefutable. That's OK, there's nothing wrong with crazy, in fact I prefer it in my friends.

and it's not the show. I seriously think it was a whale. Or maybe an octopus.

CRAP! I'm gonna have to hold my head low tomorrow at work if I don't find out this stupid show! LOL!

Thanks for your help!

You do recall correctly, but since she said dolphin or whale, I thought it would be okay. Also Killer Whales came up first on Google images.
