The series itself was based on a comic book by Creator/LewisTrondheim called ''La Mouche'', and got adapted to 65 episodes worth of animation in 1999 by {{Teletoon}} [[note]]Well, actually by Teletoon France which is operated by [=CanalSat=] and shares very little with its Canadian counterpart[[/note]]. Presumably its title was changed for the English translation to not be confused with [[Film/TheFly that movie]]. The scripts were written by Trondheim and a bunch of other people you've likely never heard of [[note]]Samuel Kaminka, Sacha Jamet, Laurent Turner (his first writing credit, later wrote for ''WesternAnimation/CodeLyoko''), Isabelle De Catalogne, Françoise Boubil, Jean Helpert (worked on the 1995 ''Literature/MrMen And Little Miss'' series with Boubil) and Alexandre Reverend (went on to ''{{The Mysteries Of Alfred Hedgehog}})''[[/note]], and the series as a whole was directed by Norman [=LeBlanc=] (who went on to work on ''[[http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0383718/ W.I.T.C.H.]]'') and Charlie Sansonetti (fresh off directing ''GadgetBoyAndHeather''). All episodes are 5 minutes long, and were broadcast either as standalone 5-minute shorts (Australia) or multiple episodes one after another to add up to a 27-minute block (France).

''Fly Tales'' is a really damned obscure Canadian AnimatedSeries. '''Really''' obscure. As in, "it only aired in France and Eastern Europe properly, recently came out on DVD in France and its pages on {{IMDb}} and TheOtherWiki are anorexic" obscure. And it has different names according to which part of the world it was broadcast in. Yeah, that kind. It was so obscure that kids living in New Zealand knew about it too.

* FantasticVoyagePlot/SwallowedWhole: In the apply named Inside a Dog, The Fly gets inhaled by (who knew) a Dog, inside the Dog is a factory manned by insects cutting up food, the Fly exits out the most obvious exit.

And the funny thing is? It's way better than it sounds. Starting from our CaptainOblivious protagonist who often [[NiceJobBreakingItHero manages to screw up something]] and then just [[CompletelyMissingThePoint misses the point completely]], the {{Slapstick}} and the occasional bouts of [[SurrealHumour surreal]] and [[DeadBabyComedy darker]] [[BlackComedy humour]], the one thing that's clear is that ''Fly Tales'' is, above all, funny. And occasionally [[TearJerker depressing]], [[NightmareFuel scary]] or [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming fluffy]] too.
