Snorks is an animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions, which ran on NBC from September 15, 1984 to May 13, 1989, and in syndication from 1986 to 1989 and on the BBC late 190s going into 2001,2002. Again from 2009–present (on the Boomerang Network). Freddy Monnickendam of Belgian character licensing firm SEPP originally developed the "Snorks" concept in 1982. Belgian comics artist Nicolas Broca created the original character designs. The cartoon was relatively successful and has a considerable fan following.

The Snorks are a race of small, colorful, fictional beings that live happily in the underwater world of Snorkland. They have snorkel on their heads, which are used to propel them swiftly through the water. As evidenced by the cartoon series, when a Snork becomes excited their tube makes a "snork" sound. Like the Flintstones or the Smurfs, they have much of the same technology as contemporary humans, adapted to their own aquatic environment. The Snorks use pearls as currency, because clams were already being used by The Flintstones.

According to the Snork back-story, which was described in the show's first opening theme, a few ventured to the surface (which the Snorks believe is "outer space") in 1643, and watched a Royal Navy ship being attacked by pirates. The captain wound up in the water, and that was the first contact between the species when the Snorks saved his life, to which the captain then expressed his gratitude by writing a book about the Snorks, although very few humans believe in the existence of the Snorks. Since then, Snorks have adopted several human habits, such as wearing clothes.

There are a few episodes which have human encounters with the Snorks.

The Snorks has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
