This was also the only DVD release of this show. A new and completely different season of the series ran on Nickelodeon.Ī three-episode DVD of the show was bundled with the two Ace Ventura movies. Ultimately, both The Mask and Ace Ventura were canceled. Despite running in a time slot after The Mask (another popular Jim Carrey-based cartoon) and a crossover with that show (in that series' finale, "The Aceman Cometh"), the series failed to gain a large audience. The show was rife with toilet humor and anachronisms (one episode centered around the Egyptian Mau, claiming it to be an extinct breed of cat, when, in fact, they are not), displaying similar humor to his later series. While the original movies already had a strongly cartoonish comedic aesthetic, they were eclipsed by the slapstick and garish humor of the cartoon. Seth MacFarlane was among the writers over the course of the show's run.

Many of the characters from the movie were retained, though not voiced by their original actors. The show ran on CBS for two seasons, with a third season airing on Nickelodeon when that channel acquired the show to broadcast reruns. The titular character, voiced by Canadian actor Michael Daingerfield (credited as Michael Hall), is a goofy private investigator with a predilection for animals of all species. The series is a sequel of the Ace Ventura movies. A third season and reruns of previous episodes aired on Nickelodeon from 1999 to 2000. It aired for two seasons from 1995 to 1997 on CBS. The series was produced by Morgan Creek Productions and Nelvana for Warner Bros.
