The Drinky Crow Show

Tony Millionaire fans get ready because everyones favorites drunken crow is about to get his own television show! Thats right, Millionaire is currently developing "The Drinky Crow Show" for Cartoon Networks' Adult Swim, with a fifteen minute pilot already completed. Drinky Crow is one of the main character, along with a drunken irish monkey named Uncle Gabby, in Millionaire's Maakies comic strip. Maakies irreverent humor about the nautical adventures of his two anti-heroes has already been adapted in a number of animated shorts featuring Millionaire's characters, including spots on Saturday Night Live, Spike and Mike's Sick and Twisted Animation Festival and in The Might Be Giant documentary "Gigantic".

With any luck "The Drinky Crow Show" will be just as brilliant as the early animated shorts. The voice actors are all incredible talents, with Futurama's Billy West as Drinky Crow and King of the Hill's Dave Herman as Uncle Gabby. But if you want to make sure Drinky Crow gets his much deserved airtime head over to Adult Swim and voice your opinion on the comedy programming scheduling suggestions link.

For more updateson the show, Fantagraphics' blog has promised to make current updates as more info gets released.

Now enjoy what has become a cult classic animated short: Drinky Crow Gets A Job.
