Star Street: The Adventures of the Star Kids

Star Street is a Dutch-American animated series that aired between 1989 and 1990 internationally and 1991-1992 in the Netherlands. The series was popular both in Benelux and in the United Kingdom. The protagonists were pink big-nosed creatures comically fashioned after horoscopes of the western zodiac and was set on a small star-shaped planet in the outer reaches of the universe. The antagonists were green blobbish creatures known appropriately as blobs governed by an even larger pink blob creature, Momo the Glutton. The cartoon's premise is somewhat similar to The Smurfs and The Care Bears. Studio 100 is the company that currently owns the rights to the show.
