The first installment of the animated web series based on YouTube star Lucas Cruikshank’s high-pitched, hyperactive, and lovelorn Fred Figglehorn went live on the internet today. It’s Fred’s premiere episode - ‘Fred Gets Adopted’ - features our protagonists’s familiar face in cartooned form scheming for the affection of his classmate Judy. That premise is nothing new. Fred fans have seen it dozens of times before. Cartooned Fred breaking the fourth wall and talking directly into the camera at the viewers is nothing new either. That’s a staple of online video programming that’s been the basis of Cruickshank’s character since his first video. But what is different about the cartoon version of Fred is that those individuals that find the Chipmunk-frequency of the main character’s voice annoying, the Micro Machine Guy pace of his speech aggravating, and the show’s level of success...

As part of the joint press announcement this morning in New York between management firm The Collective and online network blip.tv, YouTube star Lucas Cruikshank, creator of the infamous Fred channel announced his next project for the high-pitched character—an animated web series. The project is still in the development phase, but the showrunners are now attached with Kate Boutilier and Eryk Casemiro, creator of The Rugrats and The Wild Thornberries on board. The project budget is not disclosed, but it is being financed by The Collective’s newly formed Collective Digital Studio. The Fred channel, which has been relatively quiet after Cruikshank shifted into making feature-length film versions of the character, still sits as the #6 most subscribed channel on YouTube with just over 2.2 million subscribers and 777 million total views. The first feature, Fred: The Movie, was independently financed and taken to cable TV on Nickelodeon where it drew...

The bodily functions flow liberally in "Rugrats in Paris: The Movie", the lively animated feature follow-up to the popular Nickelodeon residents' hit 1998 big-screen outing.
Faster-paced and noisier than its predecessor, the revved-up sequel's obsession with potty humor will likely have some parents exclaiming "mon Dieu" or, at least, "mon doo-doo." But despite the film's rather frenetic efforts to address pint-sized attention spans, there's plenty to amuse kids and their long-suffering caregivers.
Armed with those trademark satirical and tenderhearted moments, not to mention the Baha Men's ridiculously catchy "Who Let the Dogs Out" on the soundtrack, those irresistible Rugrats should do some gross stuff at the boxoffice before cleaning up on video.
After a funny "Godfather" parody, the new adventure begins when one of Stu Pickles' (voiced by Jack Riley) mechanical Reptar inventions goes seriously on the fritz, and he and the rest of the Rugrats roster is dispatched to Paris, home of the dazzling EuroReptarland amusement park.
It doesn't take long for plotting Angelica (Cheryl Chase) to meet her match with the attraction's kid-hating manager, the Cruella De Vil-lainous Coco La Bouche (Susan Sarandon), who's angling for a major promotion but needs to first set herself up as a loving family person.
She quickly sets her sights on widowed Charles Finster (Michael Bell), whose perpetually congested son Chuckie (Christine Cavanaugh, a k a the voice of Babe the pig) has been pining for a new Mom.
Ultimately, the good guys see through her little scheme -- but not before Angelica, Chuckie, Tommy, Phil, Lil, Baby Dil and company manage to effectively trash the City of Lights.
Once again, the character work is strong, and the celebrity recruits are fun, including Sarandon, being uncharacteristically nasty; John Lithgow as her pretentious personal assistant, Jean-Claude; and, in cameo turns, Debbie Reynolds as Grandpa Lou's new love interest, Tim Curry as a sumo karaoke singer and Casey Kasem as -- surprise -- a DJ.
And while it seems they could have toned it all down a few notches without fear of losing their audience, co-directors Stig Bergqvist and Paul Demeyer -- working from a script credited to J. David Stem and David N. Weiss (both of whom penned "The Rugrats Movie") along with series writers Jill Gorey, Barbara Herndon and Kate Boutilier -- do a good job of keeping things moving, physically and emotionally.
Technically speaking, the animation, while definitely not state-of-the-art, is richer than that found on the TV version. The computer-generated images have been retouched by hand to give the characters more warmth.
In addition to those infectious "Dogs", the inspired Maverick soundtrack surrounds the bouncy Mark Mothersbaugh score with similarly energetic tracks by the likes of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Isaac Hayes and TLC's "T-Boz" Watkins as well as quieter things by Cyndi Lauper and Sinead O'Connor.
