The people at AdultSwim are busy trying to come up with new fresh content & keep a successful selection of great (and sometimes too bizarre) series. Their newest idea developed by Titmouse studio comes as an adaptation of Scott Sanders’s Black Dynamite movie.
The pilot just aired last week (and will be available until the 23rd) and just like in the movie and the best 70s classics you’ll get the legend now taking on his childhood mentor and surrogate father: That Frog Kurtis, a Puppet TV educator turned super villain!
Juno Lee & Carl Jones will hopefully continue bringing the rest of the episodes, and by the welcome it’s received (nearly 400K views by now), we’re convinced Adultswim will continue streaming the series; although you’ll have to wait until 2012 as the full series is set to premiere on Cartoon Network’s late night programming block, Adult Swim, next year. You can watch the pilot it here.
