Oggy and the Cockroaches: Next Generation (French: Oggy et les Cafards : Nouvelle Génération) is a French animated series produced by Xilam for the streaming service Netflix. It is the eighth season of Oggy and the Cockroaches, and serves as a reboot to it. Like the original series, it focuses on the wacky antics of Oggy and a trio of mischievous cockroaches that inhabit his house. Aside from the titular characters, the series also introduces the seven-year-old Piya, an optimistic elephant from India whom Oggy has to look after. The series premiered on Gulli in France on November 8, 2021, followed by a worldwide release on Netflix on July 28, 2022.

Unlike the previous seasons and Oggy Oggy, both of which have episodes that last 22 minutes and contain three self-contained segments, Next Generation's episodes last for 43 minutes with six segments each on Netflix. This is not the case for Gulli, however. The series drastically tones itself down compared to the original, with a focus on Oggy's friendship with Piya, and is visualized with a more geometric style.
