Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (TV series)  Ace Ventura: Pet Detective is an animated television series based on the . The series was produced by Morgan Creek Productions and Nelvana Limited for Warner Bros. Television. It aired for two seasons from 1995 to 1997 on CBS. A third season and reruns of previous episodes aired on Nickelodeon from 1999 to 2000. "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective " was one of three animated series based on Jim Carrey movies premiering in the same year; the others are the 1995-1997 "", and the 1995-1996 "Dumb and Dumber" series. The series is a sequel of the "Ace Ventura" movies. The titular character, voiced by Canadian actor Michael Daingerfield (credited as Michael Hall), is a goofy private investigator with a predilection for animals of all species. The show ran on CBS for two seasons, with a third season airing on Nickelodeon when that channel acquired the show to broadcast reruns. Many of the characters from the movie were retained, though not voiced by their original actors. While the original movies already had a strongly cartoonish comedic aesthetic, they were eclipsed by the slapstick and garish humor of the cartoon. Seth MacFarlane was among the writers over the course of the show's run, displaying similar humor to his later series. The show was rife with toilet humor and anachronisms (one episode centered around the Egyptian Mau, claiming it to be an extinct breed of cat, when, in fact, they are not). Despite running in a time slot after "" (another popular Jim Carrey-based cartoon) and a crossover with that show (in that series' finale, "The Aceman Cometh"), the series failed to gain a large audience. Ultimately, both "The Mask" and "Ace Ventura" were cancelled. A third season of the series ran on Nickelodeon. A computer game, "", was based on the show. A two-part crossover between "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" and "", another animated series based on a Jim Carrey film, aired on August 30, 1997. The crossover begins with "The Mask" episode "The Aceman Cometh", and concludes with the "Ace Ventura" episode "Have Mask, Will Travel". At the time of the original airing, "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" was running in the adjoining time slot immediately following "The Mask" in CBS's Saturday morning lineup. During the crossover, Stanley/Mask and Ace retain their respective animation styles while appearing within the other's show.
