Plot

The series features the eponymous Owl, pink in color, and with blue feet that "float" below his body. The Owl also resembles a plastic figure and has a grumpy, anti-social personality. Each of the minute-long fifty-four episodes centers on the Owl attempting to overcome unfortunate circumstances, but as a running gag, end in his demise by his various appendages and body being dispensed of in unusual or comical ways.

The series' setting only takes place high above at a nondescript tree, a la a "bottle show". The Owl occasionally also encounters other species, like other birds, bats and even an athletic frog, to which these never end well for him. Other situations also involve surreal events, like floating objects and exploding apples.
