I'm surprised there are not more cartoons with mimes as protagonists. It would probably cut down animation costs and you wouldn't need a voice actor. (leminal.space)

Was thinking about an isekai where a mime mimes getting hit by a bus and gets transported to another world but just keeps on miming

Roadrunner & Coyote. Tom & Jerry (mostly, there was some weird talking occasionally). Shaun the Sheep. Pink Panther.

Lots of examples of famous main characters who lead shows with little to no dialogue.

There are also characters like Snoopy and Gromit who are silent characters in shows where others speak, but there are long stretches where they do their own thing with no dialogue.
