The first episode was hosted by Robert Urich, the second by Alan Thicke, and the final three episodes by John Ritter.

The short segments, approximately two and a half minutes long, aired between programs and during commercials. They featured a pink character, Mister Go, who always did things illegally, incorrectly, clumsily, and sometimes even deceitfully. His companion was his dog, Bip, who always warned him that what he was about to do was wrong or could have bad consequences, but Mister Go never listened and always ended up making a mess of things. After his antics, Mister Go was always discovered by a police officer, a guard, or some other person, and he and his dog Bip almost always escaped to avoid the consequences. This series of shorts used a universal language; that is, no words from any specific language were spoken, but the characters occasionally uttered a word or two in English, such as "OK." This made the series understandable to a wide audience.
