Viewers are treated to their first taste of the deliriously demented antics of Captain Murphy (the late Harry Goz) in the pilot episode of The Cartoon Network's popular Adult Swim series. Life in Sealab can get rather boring from time to time, and in order to keep himself occupied, Captain Murphy decides to utilize the compound's emergency radio beacon to start his own pirate radio show under the name "Howlin' Mad Murphy." When the FCC catches wind of Howlin' Mad Murphy's illegal broadcast, they send out a "search and destroy" team in order to silence the show with extreme prejudice.
