Spaceballs The Animated Series Debuts on G4
Starting today, G4 (the channel that brings you daily marathons of Cheaters and Ninja Warrior) will be debuting the animated series based on Mel Brooks’ Star Wars spoof, Spaceballs. The project has been on ice for nearly three years, but is finally in the can and ready for airing.
Brooks, who is still on as executive producer, has also come back to voice his characters from the film, along with Daphne Zuniga reprising her "Princess Vespa." The series is said to be far more mature than the original film, chalf full of sexual innuendo and boobs, which doesn’t exactly stay congruous with the film’s tone. You can check out the NSFW trailer below, and Spaceballs debuts Sunday, September 21, at 3pm ET.
Oh. My. God.
I remember when about half of all the San Diego buses had ads for this show — during the 2007 SDCC. About time they got this up. So to speak.
I think 50 years from now, some people will think that all the parodies came first and the films themselves were spinoffs.
