Burbank, CA (May 1, 2006) - The original movie KARATE DOG, a canine comical caper that will have you howling with laughter, premieres Monday, May 29 (7:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on ABC Family. The human cast is top dog - Chevy Chase, Jon Voight, Simon Rex, Jaime Pressly and the late Pat Morita.
Cho Cho (voiced by Chase), a wisecracking pooch, partners with the bumbling computer geek detective Peter Fowler (Rex) to solve his Zen master�s (Morita) murder.

The unlikely duo stumbles upon a biochemical maniac, Hamilton Cage (Voight), and his quest to find eternal youth. While fighting for their lives and the safety of the world as we know it, Fowler still finds the time to fall for the beautiful yet tough female officer, Ashley Wilkens (Pressly).
