The star of the show, Popee, is a clown in an odd red-striped jumpsuit and bunny ears. Who works at a circus in the middle of the desert. He is adept at juggling, being a clown, pulling large knives and small bombs out of thin air. He is not adept at ever succeeding in his nefarious plans to hurt his poor assistant or the owner of the circus. His mischievous nature is the driving force of each episode.
