Title: Kappa Mikey

OK so I was watching the Nicktoons channel when I see a commercial of this show called Kappa Mikey.

UPDATE!!!!

This show's about an american kid who wins a contest to be a star in a japanese show and he goes to japan and does some acting and whatnot. However when he's NOT doing any acting, he and his friends (who work at the studio) do some things. Like go places and stuff. However most of the time they get into these weird situations, but if its something serious (like someone getting kidnapped or something) the team finds a way to save them, but sometimes it involes ONE of the members to get in trouble. So yeah...

Now the good thing about this show is that it actulally isnt as bad as those other shows that Nick made (Catscratch, Spongebob, etc) however the bad thing about it is how the 3D effect are.

Also there are hidden things in the show. Im not talking about mature things im talking about copyrighted things. One episode they made fun of Donkey Kong, and in another episode there's a character that looks like SPEED RACER. So if you watch the show, keep an eye out, cause you might just find something FAMILIAR.

So if there's nothing to watch on TV during Friday, Saturday and Sunday, then watch the Nicktoon Network Channel around 10:30 AM, 8:00 PM and 11:00 PM, cause thats when Kappa Mikey is on. However there might be a time where they play it TWICE or play it at another time, so if you notice the show playing at another time, then let me know ok.

Now the only thing about the show that makes me laugh personally is how the art style is. The anime characters may look a bit weird but they're still good looking, but thats america for you people. However the AMERICAN character (Mike) on the other hand looks REALLY BAD! His outlines are VERY THICK and his style is just way out. So thats why the art style makes me laugh, cause the guy mixed one style with another.

So yeah well thats all I know for now. I'll try to find out more later.

And like I said, if you know anything about this show, then please post your info ok.

Oh and here's the official site if you wanna check it out: http://www.kappamikey.com/

And remember, this show is on NICKTOONS NETWORK channel. The one with Rocko, Ren and Stimpy and all those old shows. ok

Alright well thanks for reading guys.

AWAY!!!!!

Which dude? The sayan-looking guy, purple pikachu spoof, who?

Yeah I watched it, very original concept of doing an anime style show with one charcter done in american animation. I liked the one part where everyone but Mikey is doing to big-eyed suprised look and Mikey trys and fails at it(you can see it on the galley on the Kappa Mikey website). Also on the website, you can go to the creator's blog by clicking on the Behind the Scenes button, it turns out the show is made using Flash.

I've heard about this show, one very good artist I know of that's on DA actually works on this show, I don't remember what exactly he does, I'll have to go check.

The whole concept sounds interesting, I might try and watch an episode or two at some point.

Yeah and to be very honest that is actulally VERY talented. Most cartoon companys DONT use computer programs like Flash. They just use those "Special Animation" programs to make their shows (which I call CHEATING cause they can save the characters, props and all that stuff on to the hard drive).

So yeah again, thats actulally VERY talented. It may not be as good looking as Avatar or any of those other great shows, but what do you expect, its FLASH!
