Very similar, unthough unrelated to the Smurfs - this series featured tiny water dwelling characters with distinct snorkels growing out of their heads. Taking place in the 1600s, these creatures reside in "Snorkland," they occasionally venture to the surface to interact with humans, thanks to fellow snork Galileo [Clive Revill] and his first contact. The Snorks included main character Allstar Seaworthy [Michael Bell] and red-head girlfriend Casey Kelp [B.J. Ward], Allstar's little sister Smallstar Seaworthy [Gail Matthius], his pet octopus Occy [Frank Welker], Daffney Gillfin [Nancy Cartwright] and boyfriend Dimmy Finster [Brian Cummings], Tooter Shelby [Frank Welker] who honked rather than spoke, and the wild, two-snorkeled Jo-Jo [Roger DeWitt]. Corky [Rob Paulsen] acted as the police patrollman.

The misfit characters included Junior Wetworth [Barry Gordon] - a spoiled governor's son who bullied Allstar, and Bigweed [Michael Bell] with smaller counterpart Lil Seaweed [B.J. Ward].
