This video shows a short clip from the new animated TV series based on the 2004 cult film Napoleon Dynamite. It may only be just over a minute long but it’s enough to get me watching.
Napoleon Dynamite has been turned into an animated series. It premiered on Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 on Fox, with the first two episodes titled Thundercone and Scantronica Love respectively.
The story centers on the main character named Napoleon Dynamite and his friends and family. Nothing much happen in the rural Idaho setting, which means the characterization has to be superb. And it is.
The brilliant thing is that all the cast from the film returned for the TV show. I’m guessing they were lured back by the promise of huge wages for little work. But still, it’s nice to see.
