Saturday Morning Cartoons: Who Lives In A Pineapple Under The Rubber Tree?
Tom Kenny, voice of beloved Spongebob Squarepants helped produce an unaired pilot for Cartoon Network. Even better, the celebrated voice talent lent his tenor to the pliable plastic hero. While quality shows like “Johnny Test” and “Dude! What would happen!?” got the green light, sadly, this didn’t make the cut.
So, for your enjoyment (and don’t tell Geoff Johns, Dan DiDio, or Jim Lee) here now the unaired pilot for “Plastic Man”. We here at ComicMix think it’s a bouncing good larf.
That was fun! Too bad it didn’t work out, Plas is a great cartoon character. I watched a ton of his old cartoon when I was a kid.
The pants were a bit weird, though. If they’re going to give him pants legs, they should at least give him shoes, too. Otherwise he looks like he’s wearing footy pajamas.
Looks like a cross between "Ren & Stimpy" and Basil Wolverton.I'm afraid i wouldn't watch it.
Some of the spirit of this short, as well as Tom Kenney's voice, serve to inform the wacky but generally capable Plastic Man on The Brave and the Bold.
Yeah. I enjoyed this pilot. Not enough to say I'd be DVRing it like crazy, but I would certainly say it was well put together.
Bruce Campbell needed to do the voice.
