Was there a talking pile of trash on this show? I think so, but I'm not sure.

yep, marjorie a.k.a. the trash heap. always full of useful advices - alongside critter-like creatures (that always reminded me of that thing at jabba the hut's tail) and of course the mandatory banana peel on top of her head

His name is Salacious Crumb. He's from Kowak and is a Kowakian monkey-lizard.

The trash heap has spoken - nyyyeeaaah!

As a kid I was always a bit mystified as to where the Gorg world is, on the surface of the Earth or somewhere else? Haha. Now watching it again on dvd this week I was just accepting it and wasn't even thinking about it when my girlfriend (who is from Hong Kong and has never seen the show before) was like "where is this?? Is this place underground as well?" Haha.
Oh yeah, and getting back on target, even now in her late twenties she finds the whole talking trash heap a bit scary!! Haha.

You know, I just rented the first three episodes. Am I the only one who thinks Madame Trash-Heap was a fraud? Sort of like one of those fake psychics? Maybe it's the fact that she hangs out with rats. Even when I was a kid I couldn't stand her.

LOL the trash heap was not my favourite part either. But the guy who did the voice is the awesomest. I didn't like much of the Gorg-land part of the shows, I very much prefer Doc and Sprocket. What a cute show.
