It seems that there was a popular predecessor to South Park's Mr. Hanky.
Ugo Ugo Ruga, a Japanese children's television show were the first creators of a lovable little character called Dr. Shit.
Yep, that's right, he's a piece of poop in a toilet. The Japanese toy company, Kubrick, came out with a plush toy and it sold like crazy. The title of the show: "ugo ugo ruga", which was an anagram "gou gou garu", actually means: go go girl. The TV show looked like it was for children. But clearly was intended for adults.
(Japan's Kubrick Toys are so avant-guard, they are also responsible for creating limited edition collector dolls of the Sex Pistols).
