Plot

[edit]

The series follows 10-year-old Dennis the Menace and his dog Gnasher as he teams up with his friends Pieface, JJ and Rubi to cause havoc to Walter and Beanotown and Bash Street School, in a world full of action-packed adventure where rules just get in the way.

Each episode also includes a short 2D section featuring Gnasher's fleas telling jokes.
