So, are they going to CG Hines and Alexander's heads onto tiny bodies? Because that would be terrifying.

I'm betting on a live action Family Circus where the kids are unnecessarily done in CGI. Just imagine a bunch of digitally created midgets with creepy oversized smiles.

I wouldn't mind a good Pearls Before Swine movie--and, I'd actually prefer it to be 2D. A Bloom County movie might potentially be good, too.

But, chances are they'll bring Beetle Bailey and Archie to the big screen first :(.

Or, they'll do a Peanuts movie, but it will involve Snoopy and Woodstock moving to the big city and dancing to hip hop on Snoopy's iPaw.

They are actually planning a direct-to-DVD 44-minute Peanuts special revolving around Linus and his blanket and Lucy's attempts to woo Schroeder. It's being adapted from the comics by Craig Schulz and Stephan Pastis of Schulz Creative Associates. Mark Mothersbaugh is doing the music in a Guaraldi-esque style (they're too cheap to pay for the actual Guaraldi songs). The Peanuts franchise has always been looked after very carefully, and I doubt the Schulz estate would allow anyone to "update" it.

Say what you will about Waterson being a weird recluse, but the upside is that horrible cash-ins ala that loving whore Jim Davis will never happen to Calvin and Hobbes.

The Looney Tunes Show looks like it might be pretty good. The character designs don't really look that bad to me- except for Bugs Bunny's head, which for some reason seems off to me.

As for MAD, most of the clips they showed seemed to be pretty badly-animated (except for the Justin Bieber gag and I think the one with Batman in bed). I'm guessing this one will be judged on whether or not it's funny, which I would assume would be a matter of age, much as it is with the magazine itself (Their stock answer for "When did you stop being funny" is both true and a typical MAD-ism: "When you stopped reading us").

I'll give it a shot. That looks kinda decent, and the concept of the neighborhood of characters is a good one to work with.

This reminds me of when Bill Amend announced that he wouldn't be doing Foxtrot dailies anymore so that he could pursue "other media interests". When I first read that all I could think was "make a cartoon, do it man, do it do it DO IT!!!". But, sadly, it has been 3 years and nothing has come of it, and his Sunday strips just don't have the punch they used to when you had a colour intermission from a week long storyline

^I agree with the "this could go either way" sentiment looking at the writing/directing team, all FOP/Nick stalwarts: Butch Hartman, Scott Fellows, "Savage" Steve Holland. (FOP head writer Steve Marmel jumped ship for Disney and Sonny with a Chance.)

Nickelodeon has been announcing a lot of things lately. Besides the FOP TV-movie, they've also announced an Avatar spin-off, The Legend of Korra, and a new series from Fairly creator Butch Hartman, T.U.F.F. Puppy, about a dim-witted dog who is recruited by a secret agency and is teamed with a cat. Naturally, they don't get along, but must work together in order to stop evil.



Oh hey, it's Spy Fox: The Animated Series.

Goddammit that would have been awesome. My siblings and I always played those and the Pajama Sam games as kids, and I keep saying that if someone like Telltale revives either of those series I will buy it regardless of the target age group.

Daffy is likely voiced by Joe Alaskey, who's been voicing Daffy for 20 something years. I think he'll be fine.

Chowder marathon is on right now. It concludes at 7:30 with the final episode, "Chowder Grows Up."

I didn't know that Schnitzel is voiced by John DiMaggio, better known as the voice of Bender.
