We’re almost at something like a critical mass where if one were to randomly pick an 80s movie, it’ll actually be MORE likely that it is in the works to be remade than not. How about… “Howard the Duck”? “Batteries Not Included”? “Problem Child”? Let me know when I’ve got a hit, videogum!
It is a small web after all.
Gotta agree with the King of the Hill defenders, here. I got hired as an animator on that show out of college, and at the time was like, “Meh. King of the Hill. Which one’s the mom again?” And this was like season 8. Then I was completely blown away at how underrated and underappreciated it actually was/is. The characters are ridiculously solid, and the situations from episode to episode consistently put the characters in really oh-that-would-drive-him/her-nuts conflicts. Blah blah blah. I really thought my opinion of that show was “blah”, too, until I was sitting at a desk drawing the characters and actually being forced to watch it. Now it’s like in my top 5. And I would definitely not say that of other shows I’ve worked on since, so that’s not some “too close” bias or anything, either.
Someone in the know has told me (I won’t reveal my sources!) that the exec who okayed this is flamboyantly gay (nothing wrong with that SOLELY) and was delighted with the premise of this show, regardless of ANY details (for the scared-of-sounding-bigoted record, I find this just as not-worthy-to-put-on-TV a reason as some douchey jock meathead exec putting a show called “Stacked : The Bitch With Huge-Ass Knockers” on TV). But, who knows, maybe we’ll get reviews more along the lines of “Hung has room to grow as a series” or something. Okay, doubt it.
That video read my mind — I actually said “a little jocular” aloud with that title as it appeared.
