Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! show bible

Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! is doing so well in it’s second season (so well that it’s a state secret right now; I’ll share the details when I can) that I was looking back on it’s origins (that’s the original pitch bible above). And I was being fascinated with how true to it’s original vision creator Bob Boyle has kept it.

A few Frederator related projects converged on Times Sqaure at the same time (!) last week.

Bob Boyles’ Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!, our production through our Mixed Media Group joint venture, is coming out with its first DVD from our partners at Anchor Bay/Starz. The crack team at Anchor Bay made sure millions of people were aware with a week long campaign on the Toys R Us billboard on Broadway.

And a couple of blocks North, over the W Hotel, the Next New Networks stars (including the Nite Fite crew) were showing off on a billboard of their own.

I’m actually overwhelmed with it all, so I won’t say much more. But, wow!

I’ve been rockin’ in Burbank the last few days. The folks from Polygon Pictures in Tokyo (producer Rita Street, Director Hiroshi Chida, President Shuzo John Shiota, Creative Producer Kenji Ishimaru) were in re-pitching Boneheads.

The Oh Yeah! Cartoons creators often have another cartoon or two they’d like to produce with us. Kyle Carrozza’s got Weird Eddie.

Diane Kredensor & Dana Galin were in from New York, working with their art department, and with Director Yvette Kaplan (directing their incredible voice cast).

Oh Yeah! creator Adam Henry pitched another short called Pesky the Squirrel.

And the crew from Bob Boyle’s Wow!Wow!Wubbzy! welcomed me in with a great get together, violating every Film Roman alcohol-on-premises rule.

And then there was the next day.

The Wubblog, one of the godfathers of world class production blogs, is changing hands.

Well, not really. One of Frederator’s productions (via our joint venture, Bolder Media for Boys & Girls), Wow!Wow!Wubbzy, is a creation of the inestimable Bob Boyle (the producer/art director of The Fairly Oddparents and Danny Phantom, and an Oh Yeah! Cartoons creator twice over) started a pre-production blog for his show in Februrary. It has since garnered thousands of readers, even when Bob’s workload had him turn over day to day operations to intern Ariella Kaplan.

Now that Ari’s moving on to better things (that is, college), Bob’s slacker ways have given way to new Wubbmasters (that is, great artists) Sandra Equihua and Kyle Neswald. Welcome them in, and join the crowd enjoying one of the best cartoon blogs in the world.
