The premiere of HBO’s news animated series The Ricky Gervais Show is less than 2 weeks away (February 19th), and I spotted some additional Flash animated footage. Animation by W!LDBRAIN.
Have you been tuning into season 3 of Adult Swim’s Metalocalypse? Like the first two seasons, the series is being produced at Titmouse Inc in Hollywood, and they’ve begin to add more elaborate animation. Here’s a clip from a recent episode:

The team at Canadaian studio Loogaroo, which is run by ex-Fatkat kingpin Gene Fowler, is hoping you’ll like Space Knights, a 22-minute, Flash-animated pilot for Detour, the adult block on Canada’s TELETOON network. The project is part of an animated contest that pits 10 series against eachother in a vote-a-thon. So far, Nerdland and Dunce Bucket have proved the most popular amongst viewers, but the recently-released Space Knights is already hurtling to the top. Here’s a short intersticial clip featuring the Green Knight:
Nothing ground-breaking about the animation in this new Weebls-Stuff.com short, but it sure is catchy (and potentially offensive – NSFW). This is Amazing Horse.
Did anyone catch last Thursday’s premiere of Archer – the new series from Sealab 2021 and Frisky Dingo co-creator Adam Reed? FX Network sneaked it after It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and the early reviews are strong. The series is being produced in Atlanta at Floyd County Productions (apparently a remnant of 70/30 Productions), and the animation director is UGA-grad Mack Williams, who worked on Frisky Dingo. The show doesn’t return to air until January, but this spy spoof seems like a hit in the making. It appears that FOX’s animation domination is spreading to other networks.
