The Untouchables of Elliot Mouse is an animated series consisting of 26 episodes produced between 1996 and 1997. It draws loose inspiration from the historical figures Eliot Ness and his team, famously known as the Untouchables, who battled the notorious gangster Al Capone. The series humorously reflects on the violent atmosphere of Chicago during Prohibition and pays homage to classic American crime cinema. The central figures include four mice—Elliot "Mouse," Gordon, Mr. Wilson, and Jack the Irishman—alongside a variety of cat and dog characters.

Plot

Set in the city of "Cheesecago," residents endure the oppressive rule of Al Catone's criminal organization, which dominates gambling, entertainment, racing, and local businesses through heavy taxation and illicit cheese operations. A federal task force from the "Federal Mousehole of Investigation," led by Elliot Mouse, takes on these criminals despite internal conflicts among themselves.
