Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Mike Tyson Mysteries is an animated show on [adult swim], and the first show for that network to be produced exclusively for AS by Warner Bros. Animation (the ThunderCats reboot was produced for Cartoon Network first, then moved onto Toonami). In the same vein that The Venture Bros. is a throw back to '60s Super Science shows like Jonny Quest, this pays homage to both Hanna-Barbera mystery cartoons and '80s action hero shows like Mister T and Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos.The premise of the show is Mike Tyson (As Himself) leaves his home in Las Vegas and goes off to solve mysteries around the world, along with his friends, consisting of a ghost known as Marquess of Queensberry, Mike's adopted daughter Yung Hee, and Pigeon (voiced by Norm MacDonald), a man whose ex-wife transformed him into, yes, a pigeon. Each week, the team are given a mystery to go off and solve, and Hilarity Ensues, with Mike himself usually causing most of the problems.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })

Adam Westing: Mike Tyson as Mike Tyson, a fact that Season 2 promotional materials have gleefully lampshaded. In "Unsolved Situations", Snoop Dogg plays himself where he solves "unsolved situations" with an Asian Child Prodigy scientist, a mountain lion, and Ross Mathews (Ross the Intern from The Tonight Show during the Jay Leno era).

And Now For Something Completely Different: "House Haunters" has the gang helping a couple buy a new house. Mike and Marquees are the only ones actually interested in doing it. "For the Troops" is about the gang going to Afghanistan to entertain the troops.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })

comment
Action-Hogging Opening: The show is far more low key and slower paced than the action packed intro would have you believe. In true '70s cartoon style, none of the events shown in the intro ever take place within the episodes. The episode "My Favorite Mystery" finally gives context for each scene in the opening sequence.

Ambiguously Gay: Marquess. Which Oscar Wilde would probably find darkly amusing.
