Oggy and the Cockroaches: Next Generation

Oggy and the Cockroaches: Next Generation (French: Oggy et les Cafards: Nouvelle Génération) is a French animated series produced by Xilam Animation for the streaming service Netflix. It is a reboot of Xilam's long-running animated series, Oggy and the Cockroaches. Like the original series, it focuses on the wacky antics of Oggy and the trio of mischievous cockroaches that inhabit his house. Aside from the titular characters, the series also introduces the addition of the seven-year old Piya – an optimistic elephant from India who unintentionally adds onto Oggy's daily struggles.

Unlike Oggy Oggy, both of which had episodes that last 22 minutes and contain three self-contained segments, Next Generation's episodes last for 43 minutes with six segments each. The series noticeably tones itself down compared to Oggy and the Cockroaches, with a focus on Oggy's friendship with Piya. However, like the original, the reboot also lacks any actual dialogue – characters frequently express themselves with a variety of noises.

Voices were provided by Hugues Le Bars, within re-used audio clips for the eponymous characters - new recordings were made for this show due to his death in 2014, and Kaycie Chase as Piya, the latter of whom also performed the opening theme. Vincent Artaud, who also became the new composer for the original (since its fifth season onwards) among other Xilam titles (like Zig & Sharko), also returns as the composer for this incarnation. Due to the show's lack of dialogue, it only has one dub.
