Undone is the new rotoscoped* show on Amazon dealing with time travel, mental illness, both, and of course relationships personal and family - because what narrative isn't, really. Stephen watched the whole season, Rob watched about half.

*(it's a broad term, but we talk a lot about the style)

It's an HBO Max kind of show where we talk through all of (kinda) season 1 of Genndy Tartakovsky's "Primal" and J.G. Quintel's "Close Enough." How engaging is a 30 min series without any dialog? How about a 15 min one with a lot? Will Rob ever get to eat his lunch?

  • 57:30 - 1:05:30 *SPOILERS for PRIMAL ep 5
  • 1:10:00 Close Enough thoughts ep 1 & 2

Last episode we talked about new animated shows, this week we talk about new animation opportunities! And with all that positivity, I get mildly annoyed at the Emmy selection this year and Rob sees it as an opportunity to make me explain why Rick and Morty doesn't thrill me... again. And it works every time.

There are so many new animated series that have been in production or just got greenlit in this time of covid quarantine, animation is proving itself once again as one of the more creatively and financially stable mediums to get behind.

The Willoughbys on Netflix interested us by the trailer. We watched the movie.

This was from our Live-Streamed TRAILER TALK where we discussed the trailers for Solar Opposites, Connected, The Willoughbys, and JJ Villard's Fairy Tales. Not all positive.

We had a live-streamed show (from our respective homes) to discuss working from home and everything that entails. Being a manager, being an animator, working on-site to working from home, freelancing and its benefits, how is and might in the future impact the industry.

We also have a couple user videos, one animated, and a listener audio question as well as comments from chat. It was a fun time!

About a month ago a video was uploaded that made the rounds in the animation community of a young story artist who quit her job at Disney explaining the why of it all. 

We'll we're older and have had completely different paths from her and ourselves and have some thoughts on it all.

It's a Hot Cocoa Show!!

Rob saw Sonic. Stephen saw Frozen 2. Both are spoiled heavily.
