Zig & Sharko

Marina is depressed and bored. She’s so miserable Zig loses his appetite for her. Sharko suggests a deal to Zig : a way to put the smile back on Marina’s face. They play clowns, perform numbers with help from Bernie… / Sharko has a fan, a little piranha. The shark takes him everywhere and even leaves him with Marina for a while. The fan seizes that chance to take Sharko’s place. And that’s something Sharko does not appreciate... / Marina wakes a pirate’s ghost – who promptly moves in with her. She thinks he’s funny at first, but the pirate soon wears out his welcome. How can you lay hands on a ghost and get rid of him? Fortunately, the pirate has a hermit-crab phobia… / After a new series of unsuccessful attempts to make off with the mermaid, Zig decides to drop the whole thing and become a vegetarian. Even the wildest, most far-out inventions of Bernie aren’t enough to prod him back into action... / A cargo ship runs aground on the beach, its hold loaded with toys. Zig will turn them into inventions so he can get his mermaid : a spinning top becomes a propelling device, a croquet set, used as weapons, soap bubbles and even a giant robot… / Neptune hears Marina singing, and has her record a CD. The record is a success. Marina goes on tour to sing in front of her fans. Zig and Sharko are miserable while she’s away, for their respective reasons, of course.
