Uh huh huh uh huh! Cool. As per the recent news. Mike Judge’s first big successful creation will be returning to TV but this time they’ll be better served through Comedy Central despite 11 minutes of ads per  “half-hour” episode. … Continue reading →

Posted on June 23, 2020 by Steve

Thanks to a cartoon from The New Yorker, this might be the solution to get me back into the groove of writing for Picayune since Starbucks are not ready.

The Powerpuff Girls in high school

Posted on May 19, 2020 by Steve

Given that cartoon and TV characters age at a slower rate (if at all), I thought this was a cool update of the Powderpuff Girls as high schoolers. Thanks to adolescence, Bubbles, Blossom and Buttercup have developed their own tastes … Continue reading →

Brazilian ad featuring the D&D cartoon characters

Posted on May 26, 2019 by Steve

 According to my two Brazilian co-workers, the D&D cartoon show that aired on CBS Saturday mornings in 1983 (in America) never made it to the TV networks in their country. Maybe the person(s) behind it lived in the States … Continue reading →

Billvis & Butt-Ted

Posted on May 8, 2019 by Steve

Both duos are low IQ types but Bill & Ted were more endearing since they didn’t use frogs as baseballs or put firecrackers into innocent creatures…and they wouldn’t vote for Donal Trump. However, Beavis & Butt-Head are closer to reality … Continue reading →

1999: Spongebob Squarepants debuts

Posted on May 2, 2019 by Steve

D’oh! Wait, that’s not his catchphrase. *Ahem!* BARNACLES! TARTAR SAUCE! Much better. Yesterday was the premiere of what became Nickelodeon’s biggest, most successful cartoon character. One could say, he’s the cable network’s equivalent of their Mickey Mouse or Bugs Bunny. … Continue reading →

RIP Steve Hillenburg

Posted on December 20, 2018 by Steve

It’s a shame he passed away at a relatively early age but his main creation, Spongebob Squarepants, have given children and adults alike joy. Before Spongebob, Steve got his start with Nickelodeon’s second wave of original cartoons through Rocko’s Modern Life. … Continue reading →

New shirt from WizWorld #4: The Hormone Monster!

Posted on November 10, 2018 by Steve

Big Mouth‘s imaginary advisor to Nick and Andrew is one of the funniest thing Nick Kroll has actually done, I often find his other stuff a bit weak. Either way, it’s great to have this character which is part satyr … Continue reading →

King of the Hill “returns” on Hulu!

Posted on November 3, 2018 by Steve

After the show suddenly disappeared from Netflix without any warning, Mike Judge’s masterpiece about life in Central Texas returns! I will probably start from the beginning once I’ve finished Adventure Time.

New shirt from WizWorld #1: The Krusty Krab!

Posted on September 28, 2018 by Steve

I haven’t had a Spongebob-related shirt in a while (the Metallica one) and I also scored it because there’s a co-worker who likes to swear via the word “barnacles!” as a joke. The reference to pizza is from an early, … Continue reading →

Finally…My Life as a Teenage Robot on a shirt

Posted on September 9, 2018 by Steve

Here is the title character Jenny (model XJ-9) from a short-lived yet awesome Nickelodeon cartoon created by Rob Renzetti. I loved it because of the retro Art Deco style (many hard angles) and the main plot point was Jenny striving … Continue reading →
