Bounty HuntersWe created a show!  And not a puppet show for Matt and I to perform with action figures for our grandparents- a TV show.  (Though we’re up for doing action figure puppet shows if anyone is interested.)

CMT ordered 13 eps of Bounty Hunters- an animated show that Matt and I created along with the talented Glenn Clements.  It stars Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Engvall and Larry the Cable Guy as bumbling bounty hunters, with Lisa Lampanelli voicing their bossy bondswoman.  Alliteration sells, people.  You can read all about it in CMT’s press release or on this fancy Hollywood website.

I’m assuming that, in success, CMT will also be announcing their name change from Country Music Television to Cartoon Music Television.  I haven’t seen a press release for that yet, but it’s only a matter of time.

Thanks to everyone for the congrats!

Thanks Amurica

Thanks to everyone who’s been tuning in to Level Up and liking/retweeting/sharing our shameless plugs.  Last Tuesday, an episode written by Matt and me aired: A Heart-Worming Tail.  Maximum pun-age there.  If you missed it, here’s a clip.

The episode came out great and so did the ratings.  Beatnik finger snaps to everyone involved.  Thanks for making the jokes look good- especially the subtle Shawhank homage.


And if you catch the text on the cat poster, you’ll see a second nod to Andy Dufresne and Red. Another piece of Level Up trivia: the “leak” in this episode (the Morthorn Worm) was named after Kip Thorne and Mike Morris; the physicists to first demonstrate the possibility of traversable wormholes…  Not that we expected anyone to notice that, but when it comes to naming things it’s fun to throw that kind of stuff in there.  SCIENCE!

Thanks again to everyone who watched, everyone involved and our fellow humorists on the Level Up writing staff who also penned all the light-hearted calamity.  Keep watching the show for more jokes, sci-fi hijinks and obscure references.
