If you managed to make it into the ultra-tight confines of the Quick Stop Entertainment panel at this year’s New York Comic-Con, you were wowed by a special preview trailer for the upcoming animated series featuring SCTV and Strange Brew‘s Bob & Doug McKenzie, starring Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis in their iconic roles and produced entirely in Canada.
The series itself will premiere in 2009, but here’s that extra-special preview we premiered at Comic-Con, presented in streaming flash, and introduced by Dave Thomas himself…
This weekend, the phenomenon known as New York Comic-Con is occurring. In a startling coincidence of Art Bell-worthy proportions, New York Comic-Con takes place in New York City. Even more startling is that technicians from Quick Stop Entertainment will be on hand to witness this event and take readings with small devices that go ping.
Team Quick Stop will be at the Javits Center in Room 1E16 on Saturday, April 19th, from 5:00pm to 6:00pm.
There will be prizes. They will not go ping.
There will be surprises. They will make an odd clanging noise at a frequency unheard by humans.
There will be live musical performances from Jonathan Coulton (who has been known to ping like a Mother Box) and Paul and Storm (who have been shown in laboratory tests to interfere with toasters).
There will be reveals. I’m not at liberty to discuss them, but if Ken manages to reveal Frank Morgan behind a curtain, I will give him a dollar. Yes, Ken will be on hand. Ken makes no noises whatsoever. He merely waits. And plans.
I, Widge, will be there as well, making sure Ken takes his meds. I also have three classic Doctor Who DVDs in my bag for the first person to find me at the Con and say the magic phrase. And that phrase is… “Evil always wants pudding.”
You have your mission. Good luck.
