Obscure Animation Subject #81: Cupcake & Dino: General Services

Originally scheduled for posting on Twitter a week ago but couldn’t because of horrific TOS update, especially the rule about banning fam accounts!

Anyways, this is a Canadian-Brazilian created and directed by Pedro Eboli, airing on Teletoon in Canada and Disney XD in Brazil. In the United States, the show was originally released on Netflix, and was released for two seasons of 26 half-hours of two segments each from July 27, 2018 to May 3, 2019.

The series follows the life of Cupcake and Dino, two brothers who strive to make a name for themselves in the General Services (odd jobs) business.

Cupcake & Dino is one of those rare shows that manages to nail its premise with precision and confidence whilst managing to appeal to both adults and children. Although the episodic content and strong thematic core is geared predominantly toward a younger clientele, the goofy, cleverly written humor and varied episodes make it just as enjoyable for adults as it is for kids making for quite the enthralling watch.

In many ways Cupcake & Dino draws inspiration from SpongeBob SquarePants, right down to the blend of hand-drawn animation and live-action. Cupcake & Dino keep up the amusing anecdotes right through to the final episode and there’s plenty of laughs waiting for those who can get accustomed to the admittedly jarring first 10 minutes or so. While most of the humour relies on goofy, physical humour and slapstick, Cupcake & Dino subverts expectations with a couple of cleverly placed jokes that feel solely intended for adults without the usual crudeness that seems to be a staple in adult animation.

The art is well drawn too with the backgrounds sufficiently detailed thanks to thin outlines and a varied color palette. The characters themselves are nicely animated too and are graced with enough personality and character development to make for quite the surprising watch. Seeing Dino try to regain confidence after losing his headband or watching Cupcake show empathy to fellow sweet treat Muffin are little touches that just help to really flesh out the characters and give them some much needed depth which is surprising given the show is geared toward kids.

This is the sort of show you’d skip by without a second thought unless you’ve got kids but you really owe it to yourself to give this one a go. At its heart, its cleverly written, the animation is stunning and the humor is hilarious. It won’t be for everyone and the humor is a little subjective at times, especially given this is tailored toward children, but if you give it a go you may just find Cupcake & Dino an interesting surprise.

What makes you want to create a lot of Sonic fanart for your Christian/non Christian art works? If I may hazard a guess, you seem quite fond of the series, what got you into it, then?

I'm torn between saying, "I suppose I'm quite fond of it," and "not really," even though it has clearly dominated my creative endeavors.

As for the history:

IN THE DAYS OF YORE, the lockdown during the COVID pandemic in 2020, I had gotten into watching the same show on Netflix (Cupcake & Dino: General Services, if you're interested) but after the umpteenth rewatch, I was getting weary of it. At the time, Netflix had recently added Sonic X to their catalogue. I had watched it a little when I was young, though not necessarily a fan of Sonic, so I thought I'd go for it. This led me down a rabbit hole, to looking at Sonic on tumblr, to wondering about the character Silver, to watching gameplays on YouTube, to reading the comics online. The lockdown also just led to me having more time to draw, so y'know. I was drawing Sonic characters a lot.

After a day of animation reveals from the Annecy Film Festival we have some exclusive news as a aftermath, Disney Television Animation has set development orders for two potential new animated series likely for Disney Channel from three prolific creators.

One of the two new development.series come from the minds from Pedro Eboli (Netflix “Cupcake and Dino: General Services”,Cartoon Network LATAM “Oswaldo”, Nickelodeon “Ollie’s Pack” and Discovery Kids LATAM “Bada Bean”) and Mark Satterthwaite (Netflix “Cupcake and Dino: General Services”, Nickelodeon “Ollie’s Pack” and Amazon Prime Video “Gary and His Demons“)

Eboli had a overall development deal with Disney TVAon 2019-2021 however due COVID-19 cuts at Disney BTV, Eboli was dropped alongside Ben Baliresti and S.H Cotugno however Eboli has returned on June 2023 for a second chance with Disney TVA for a potential Disney Channel show.

The second series being developed comed from the mind of Thurop Van Orman (Cartoon Network Studios “The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack”,Dreamworks Animation Television “Home: Adventures with Tip & Oh“ and Sony Pictures Animation “The Angry Birds Movie 2“). The development of this series gets back on track with a rejected Disney XD pilot from 2016, the pilot was passed on 2016 alongside Very Important House and Douglas Furs due  a executive change at Disney Channel’s Worldwide on 2015-2017, meaning that the new Disney Branded Television CEO and Disney Television Animation VP of Development and Current Ayo Davis gave a second chance to Orman’s pitch and pilot for a potential Disney Channel show.

 It’s a fun show. Check it out :). I decided to draw this because I would like to make a proper piece of fan art of it, but am unsure of the pose/expression/composition for it. Here are some doodles for fun.
