The Specialists

The Specialists is an animated television series that appeared on the second season of MTV's Liquid Television in 1992-1993. It was directed by Joe Horne, creator of the previous MTV series Stevie and Zoya and presently a director on The Boondocks. The plot revolved around three detectives for hire: the group's leader Mastermind, who wore a white Nehru jacket and as his name implied was the brains of the operation; Kittka, a female escape artist who wore a skintight blue tuxedo and had blue hair and skin; and Samson, a large, muscular man in a black suit. Their many foes during the 10 three minute episodes included an evil crime clown, an intergalactic poodle conspiracy, an evil genius named Dr. Raoul Dendrite and his schoolgirl-uniformed assistant Delilah, and Negator, who subdued his opponents with a highly sarcastic wit.
