The Fuccons is a Japanese sketch comedy series produced by Yoshimasa Ishibashi centered on the family of the same name, consisting of American expatriates James and Barbara Fuccon with their son, Mikey, who are played by mannequins. The series originated as a recurring segment in Ishibashi's sketch comedy show, Vermilion Pleasure Night, under the title The Fuccon Family, which aired on TV Tokyo. The segments were followed up with The Fuccon Family Part 2 and New Fuccon Family.
A film titled The Color of Life compiling skits from Vermilion Pleasure Night was released in 2001, which also contained alternate cuts and endings to The Fuccon Family. A DVD compiling The Fuccon Family was later released on January 24, 2004.
Beginning on January 6, 2002, the series received its own late night time slot and retitled Oh! Mikey. It ran for a total of eight seasons until 2005. Afterwards, several sketches that never made it to television broadcast were released direct-to-DVD, beginning with Oh! Mikey Hard Core in 2005.
In 2004, the episodes "A Family Crisis", "The Lady Tutor", and "Mikey's Grandparents" were dubbed in English for the 54th Berlin International Film Festival, which were later released with the limited version of Oh! Mikey Hard Core. In the same year, along with Vermilion Pleasure Night, ADV Films licensed the first four seasons for North American distribution with a new English dub produced, releasing the series under the title The Fuccons. The English dub was broadcast on Anime Network, as well as a recurring segment on G4's Late Night Peepshow on G4.
