Earthworm Jim was arguably one of the greatest titles in the classic run and run genre ever. Released to Sega Genesis in 1994, Earthworm Jim’s hapless idiocy was endearing enough to gamers to garner his own animated television series.

Running for two seasons on the Kids’ WB network, the Earthworm Jim cartoon featured 23 episodes that featured ridiculous humor and the surreal settings that were reflective of the game that inspired it. The voice of Earthworm Jim was actually Dan Castellaneta, who is now best known for the dreary, slow voice of Homer Simpson.

If you are needing a dose of Psy-Crow, Princess Whatshername or any of the other silly characters from EJ, you are in luck. Madman Entertainment is releasing a DVD collection in Australia for a very affordable $27.98AU. If it starts in the Outback, you can bet it will drift to the rest of the world. Check it out here.
