#Cartoon Network Invaded

[new-employeeamillion]

May 4

On this Day in random cartoon history, Homer gets a colleague and TV history is made in 1997, Fry becomes an emperor after drinking the last one in 1999, Mojo Jojo’s latest plan involves time travel in 2001, and Cheese’s latest plan involves starting a network-wide event in 2007. Then they boys confront a deadly comedy robot in 2011, who bore such a resemblance to a Dalek that a Doctor Who book later made reference to it. And lastly, Baljeet becomes a mad genius in 2012, and SpongeBob joins a gang of sharks in 2016. The Simpsons has to win today though, there’s no way it couldn’t.

THE GIRLS ARE BONDINGGGGG DSHFSDKHJF!!!! 🌸💫💀 I’m SO excited to share this with you!!! I’ve had this image in my head for a LONG time. I wasn’t expecting to add a background, but I knew I wanted it to be a print, so after drawing the girls I thought to myself, you know what, I may as well go full hog and add one. This was so much fun!!1! I feel like it’s 2015 again, WITH MY FIXATIONS I MAY AS WELL BE SIXTEEN RIGHT NOW XKJHCKKJGHJ!!! I’ve been thinking about watching gaobam during my invader zim kick, and then I was also thinking about gravity falls, but there was part of me that didn’t want that to pull me away from iz….. WELL PROBLEM SOLVED!! I am so genius >:) I’ve been watching both shows lately and having a blast.

Print preorders are live on my store!! I'm planning on printing this, as well as a few other drawings at the end of this month.

Seriously, I just like cartoons. I wanted to try more bold lineart and colors this time around, sometimes drawing in soft colors gets boring :p

Quite proud of this one, just saying.

If you rewatch them, you can tell that the writers on these shows had A BLAST / SO MUCH FUN writing them lol.

I remember both of those crossovers and how the CN one even created new bumpers for it with these three original alien characters.

I was today years old when I realized that weird alien invasion event that happened on Cartoon Network was all a part of a Kraft's Mac N Cheese sponsorship...For those who don't know...

Back in 2007, Cartoon Network marketed this big event where aliens invaded in five of their popular shows at the time: Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends, Ed, Edd, n Eddy, My Gym Partner's A Monkey, Camp Lazlo, and The Grim Adventures of Billy Mandy. Each episode had two things in common: An alien species that looked the same in each show and cheese...Just...Just cheese. Lots of cheese. Characters eating cheese and protecting cheese and even chasing after a character named Cheese.

This was stretched out for a month, and it was all sponsored by Kraft, hence the weird obsession with cheese in each episode. This was an idea that NONE of the showrunners wanted to do, but the network forced them to do it anyway. Still, some tried to make this forced idea work because...it was all for the money, I guess.

Unfortunately, Kraft would BACK OUT of this deal, and it was all thanks to the episode that Billy and Mandy had to make. Because I guess they didn't like an episode where a kid's head blew up for the sake of saving cheese or something (I barely remember that episode). But, yeah, that's the main reason why Cartoon Network did this weird event, and it was all for NOTHING. And I'm going to be honest...I wish more studios did weird shit like this.

I mean, I don't WANT showrunners to be forced into making an episode they had no desire to make, but let it be known it left an impact. Like that time Disney Channel sitcoms had characters wish upon a shooting star that caused them all to temporarily live out these weird what-if scenarios. It's frickin' weird, but it's the best kind of weird.
