A lighthearted, colorful animated comedy where a bumbling cyborg detective's incompetence is cheerfully offset by his loyal niece and dog, delivering reliable weekly victories against cartoonish villainy.

Inspector Gadget is a clumsy, dim-witted human cyborg detective with various bionic gadgets built into his body. Gadget stumbles around working the cases while his niece and dog do most of the investigating. Gadget's arch-nemesis is Dr. Claw, the leader of an evil organisation, known as "M.A.D."
