You may have already read about this over at Cartoon Brew, but PBS has announced their new Flash-animated series Click & Clack’s As The Wrench Turns. The series is based on NPR’s Car Talk, the Peabody Award-winning talk show about cars that boasts 4.3 million listeners. The series is being directed by Tom Sito, who once presided over the Local 839 animator’s union and has dozens of animated feature credits to his name, including Lion King, Beauty and the Beast and Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Vancouver-based Atomic Cartoons is handling the animation, and I read that Hidden Door is as well.
