Top Cat and his gang were inspired by characters from the popular 1940s B movies, "The East Side Kids", but many suggest it derived from a later 1950s military comedy whose lead was a crafty con-man (The Phil Silvers Show). I have to admit to even remembering Phil Silvers i.e. Sgt Bilko, but only just!!!
