Stripperella
On--For Now
Only Four Episodes Produced
 
Created by Stan Lee, Stripperella stars Pamela
Anderson as Erotica Jones, an exotic dancer who leads a double life as
super secret agent 69. Set in a near-future Los Angeles, this animated
series finds Stripperella squaring off against a cadre of villains with
the aide of unique, high-tech gadgets such as the all-purpose Laser-Lipstick.
The full color Stripperella comic was in stores
in early June. It is written by Stan Lee, illustrated by Harry Cane, and
features a cover by Cameron Stewart. The Stripperella comic is 32 pages
long and priced at $2.95.
Stripperella premiered June 26th. If
the show is a big hit, it will probably continue, but if not, it appears
doomed. According to the website Animation HQ only four episodes
were produced before the crew was laid-off. This doesn't necessarily
mean that no further episodes will be produced, but it certainly isn't
a good sign. So tune in and check out Stripperella. Typically, as
in the case with Futurama, once an animation crew is disbanded, like Humpty-Dumpty,
it's not easy to put it back together again.

OH! Mikey
Welcome to the bizarre world of "OH! Mikey",
the story of a mannequin American family who has moved to Japan. Fashionably
hip and gut-splitting funny, Mikey's Family and their circle of friends
and acquaintances won't fail to entertain you.
  
"Oh Mikey!" is the brain chiild of director
Yoshimasa Ishibashi. The show was first shown on a late-night
Japanese television show called "Vermillion Pleasure Night". If you
like the bizarre mix of "OH! Mikey", check out this bold collection of
Japanese short films to see some of Ishibashi's other works. "The
Vermillion Pleasure Night" features many bizarre and odd Japanese shorts
which have attained a huge following on late-night Japanese television.
Incredibly both "OH! Mikey" and "Vermillion
Pleasure Night" are available on DVD with English subtitles; a great treat
for those in love with Japan yet don't necessarily speak Japanese.
