TV News: Vote For Totally 4 Teens To Become A New Adult Swim Show (A /Film Fave!)
Almost a year ago, we pined over the freakishly original, disorienting andbizarre trailerforTotally 4 Teens, a proposed series for[adult swim]that appropriated the zany format of a vintageNickelodeonkid’s show and then aspired to melt viewers' faces off. You may remember that we recentlyinterviewedthe show’s creator and frizzy-haired host,Derrick Beckles, about his psychedelic workout tape and a music video he directed starring fresh-faced pal and fanMichael Cera.
Well since that time, the last we heard aboutTotally 4 Teenswas that [adult swim] didn’t know what to do with it, and that other cable networks were interested. We love [adult swim] and practically injectTim and EricandSuperjailinto our morning cereal, but the idea that we would never seeT4T(not to mention Neil Hamburger’s filthy ode toFamily Feud)on the infamous programming block put pollen in our manly eyes. I mean, other visionairies behindT4Tinclude a guy who producedThe Daily Showand theweirdowho isthe voice of Towelie onSouth Parkand createdWonder Showzen.
But wait. There is hope yet.We can all vote forTotally 4 Teens—today and today only—tobecome a reality on the regular.Better still, the show has flirted with putting two members of the /Film staff on the program if it wins the entire contest! (If it wins today, it goes on to the quarter-finals and so forth, just like in sports.) You can go to theofficial voting site, where you can watch the full pilot episode, and place your vote! Check out the full trailer and a clip after the jump…
