Rat-Man è una serie televisiva di animazione ispirata all'omonimo fumetto della Panini Comics scritto e disegnato da Leo Ortolani. La serie, costituita da 52 episodi da 13 minuti ciascuno, fu realizzata e prodotta fra il 2005 e il 2006 da Stranemani e Rai Fiction. Alcuni episodi furono presentati in anteprima presso diverse manifestazioni dedicate a fumetti e all'animazione: Lucca Comics 2005, Romics 2005 (Roma, 8-11 dicembre), Future Film Festival (Bologna), Comicon (Napoli) e Rimini Comix (Rimini). Rai 2 iniziò a trasmettere la serie il 20 novembre 2006, interrompendo la programmazione dopo i primi 14 episodi; successivamente riprese a trasmetterli dal 16 giugno 2007 fino all'8 settembre. Successivamente la messa in onda degli episodi è stata sospesa definitivamente. Il 13 luglio 2009 la Rai ha poi ripreso la programmazione degli episodi sul canale digitale terrestre per bambini Rai Gulp. È recentemente rientrato nella programmazione di Rai Gulp, in cui sembra aver trovato il suo pubblico di riferimento "pre-adolescenziale", andando in onda nel fine settimana per poi essere reinserito durante la settimana in fascia preserale.

A Clara Bow-type young lovely takes a bath. Then, to her horror, she discovers a raggedy rodent (albeit a weirdly immobile one) on the bathroom floor. A passerby comes to her rescue and, as a reward, sticks around to get "better acquainted." But he (and we) have already seen her in the altogether so what is left to uncover?

Its nudity wouldn't be permissible on public U.S. screens for at least another forty years.
