Napoleon Dynamite (Animated TV Series)

 



 
Good?
Bad?
Indifferent/don't care?
they should have made a live-action show instead?
they should have a sequel movie instead?
want to wait and see?
 
This show supposedly will be airing on FOX come January 15th (Sunday evening) at 8:30PM (Eastern)
 
Just use google/youtube to find more clips and interviews, including a new trailer, besides those above, as those were shown and then shared by FOX around the time of Comic-Con.
 
The entire original cast is involved for what its worth.
 
As a fan of the movie, but also of the belief a movie like Ghost World I found similar but still much better, I am asking myself rhetorically, where's my Ghost World animated series?

If they can make it as dumb as the movie, or say Beavis and Butthead, I'm all for it!

Wow.
 
 
Just wow.

bump.
 
sucker premiere's on Sunday (same night as the Golden Globes unfortunately). I saw something about the storyline being pre-The Movie. But eventually Kip will meet LaFonda, etc. Whether Napoleon and Pedro are really friends at that point, I'm not sure if the writers will take a liberty or two with contunuity from the movie.

That bathtube one made me laugh, so...I'll give it a shot.

Only FOX would cancel a show like Arrested Development and then put out this tripe.

Appears to be on par with "Bob's Burgers" which means very few funny moments, if at all. 
I say more American Dad !, Roger is the sh*t !! 
 
 
 

oh, I'm sure the cult fans of the movie will be thinking same thing, lol 

I'll give it a chance but I have many doubts about it.
 
I have a feeling Diedrich Bader will be the only redeeming part to watch.

Ghost World is based on an indie graphic novel. I can't imagine anyone investing on that. Also, an animated series would have to be funny, right? I mean, Ghost World is pretty awesome, but I don't think it has that type of comedy.
As for the Napoleon Dynamite series, eh. They should have done a sequel.

it's not a matter of *type* comedy.  All you have to know is the fans of Ghost World have followed Daniel Clowes work since. Actually, given Daniel Clowes background as an artist and in animation, an animated version of Ghost World would probably make even more sense.
