What tv show is Strannix referencing


What's the cartoon Strannix talks about watching on tv when he was a kid with the cowboy shrimp riding on seahorses?

"All my life. Saturday morning cartoons...the best. For example, remember those two little shrimps coming in, riding seahorses, little chaps, little pistols? Bang! Bang! Bang! Shooting over their shoulders. All while trying to rescue that lobster from the Swedish cook. Funniest thing I ever saw in my life!"

According to movie connections for Under Siege it's The Muppet Show. 

When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness.

That's because people make illogical guesses and than submit info as fact.

Doofus: "Strannix mentioned a Swedish cook being on a cartoon show when he was a kid. That must really mean the Swedish Chef on a live-action show from when he was an adult."

Or the screenwriter got it wrong. Or maybe Strannix did. I mean, the man was half out of his mind at the time.

I mean, really, how many times will you look under Jabba's manboobs?
