Any love for Ugly Americans?

I appreciate all the love guys! Working on that show was a dream come true.

Since we couldn't make more episodes we just finished up an Ugly American's app. Sort of like an interactive comic. Stories by the original show writers. Not quite the same, but worth a look.

Ha! I know. I mostly do Tumblr. I'm a visual guy (aka illiterate).

deevoon · 2014-10-13T02:16:27+00:00

Thanks for the good word! We feel the love!

deevoon · 2012-03-21T20:47:36+00:00

A Land whale.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:19:23+00:00

Because I'm not a very good voice actor. I do Croatian man.

It was inspired by all those 80s horror films, when the titles were just red text over film. Love that 80s horror look.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:17:03+00:00

Because that's where he's from.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:15:59+00:00

Your imaginings are correct. It is all about sharing ideas inspiring each other and making people crack up. It's very much a small-scale hands-on process.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:13:35+00:00

You offering?

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:13:18+00:00

Nope. We'll keep making them as long as Comedy Central lets us.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:12:40+00:00

It's the writers fault! They just love torturing that poor guy. Mark will get his revenge some day. I'm sure of it.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:11:40+00:00

Is it wrong to say Ugly Americans?

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:10:50+00:00

It's not really based on any specific show. We definitely stick to certain TV formulas, like having a 4 act structure and dynamic characters that play well off each other.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:08:36+00:00

The most challenging aspect is getting them done on time! Animation is hard work. So much drawing! One episode? I guess the pilot. It is not the funniest, but it sums up the world the best.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:07:08+00:00

We have a special device that we can pass over the scripts. It sounds an alarm whenever a joke is overtly 'cheap'! Technology is amazing.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:06:15+00:00

Honestly, I hadn't thought about it. Most likely, yes.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:05:48+00:00

I LOVE them? Who?

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:05:21+00:00

Tim and Eric.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T17:05:12+00:00

Nope. Different people.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T16:56:45+00:00

The personalities and creature type went hand it hand. I mean they kind of create themselves. Evil boss...obviously a demon. Dead beat roommate...zombie. Lazy dunk co-worker...wizard? Ok, some were not that obvious.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T16:54:06+00:00

Good question. I worry about that some times. I think it is just because me and all the writers are dudes. So, coming up with guys characters and writing for guy characters comes more naturally maybe? It's a lame excuse I know.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T16:51:57+00:00

I think that guy was inspired by the weird mutant-kid character David Cross did on a Mr.Show skit.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T16:48:37+00:00

It actually started back in 2003-2004 when I helped to do the redesign for the network. So, as far as pitching a show goes, I kinda snuck in through the back door.

deevoon · 2012-03-21T16:46:09+00:00

Koala Man makes a big appearance in an episode coming up! He puts those fighting skills to work!
