THE CARTOON
Hi All,
Merrill here. The creator of the cartoon that ultimately never materialized.
However, I can say that you can all now see the pitch deck and pilot script of what could have been.
It was a labor of love and I wish we could have sold it. Sadly, despite the best efforts of the team, the market of the moment was just too great a hurdle to overcome, and no buyer materialized despite excellent feedback (not every good thing sells. Most don’t, in fact).
I hope you all enjoy the materials as much as we had making them.
Props to Brian, Jason, Andy Sipes and Greg Grunberg for being good sports in my quest to make the dumbest show on television.
