No, that’s not a typo in the title of Amy Winfrey’s Making Fiends. The multifaceted Winfrey created a children’s horror web series about a murderous little girl whose friends are monsters and whose nemesis is Pollyanna on steroids that was madly delightful enough to be picked up by Nickelodeon in 2008. Winfrey, also known for her work as an animator on South Park, currently serves as a director on the critically acclaimed Netflix series, BoJack Horseman.
Winfrey’s deranged web series, all accessible via her website amywinfrey.com, include Big Bunny, Squid and Frog, and MuffinFilms, in which bad things happen to good desserts. Her newest is Hooray for Hell, created with husband and fellow animator Peter Merryman. She also serves as a director on Lisa Hanawalt’s...

The second season of Cartoon Network's The High Fructose Adventures Of Annoying Orange has only just begun, but the guest stars are already rolling in. In the upcoming fourth installment of the new batch of episodes, Felicia Day will return to the series, playing an anthropomorphic ginger root. Get it? Day previously appeared on Annoying Orange as Peach, a character who has also been voiced by Shira Lazar in the web series version of the show. Playing a ginger is, however, more fitting more Day; if there's one thing Annoying Orange loves, it's incredibly groan-inducing puns. Other YouTube notables, such as iJustine and Toby Turner, continue to have regular roles on the program, which made the jump to TV in 2012. Annoying Orange continues to draw strong ratings for Cartoon Network, showing that the people who made the web series a smash hit also have access to TVs

The High Fructose Adventure of the Annoying Orange debuted on Cartoon Network on Monday, June 11. The cable television iteration of the original web series created by Dane Boedigheimer and starring talking fruit with punny senses of humor leveraged its online predecessor’s over one billion views, 2.4+ million YouTube subscribers, 10.8+ million Facebook fans, and 260,00+ Twitter followers to become the #1 rated telecast in the 8:30Pm time slot among kids 2 to 11, 6 to 11 (which is a separate demographic advertisers like to use even though the same age group is encompassed in the kids 2 to 11), 9 to 14, and all boys. All those kids in all those demos contributed to a total of over 2.6 million viewers for The Annoying Orange’s television premiere on Cartoon Network. By comparison, the latest regular installment of the Annoying Orange on YouTube has racked up just over 1 million views in the past week.

What started out as just another web video for Dane Boedigheimer back in 2009 has built him a mini-empire, which will soon include a half-hour series on Cartoon Network. The Annoying Orange, which debuts at 8:30pm June 11, will showcase the verbose fruit who delights in tormenting his fellow foodstuffs with his intrusive high-pitched greetings like “Hey! Hey, Apple!” It’s all profoundly silly, and Boedigheimer — better known by his online handle Daneboe — knows it. Expanding the quickie shorts into episodes that will consist of two 11-minute segments has been a surprisingly smooth process so far, he says. It [...]...

The Annoying Orange is the latest online video property to join the exclusive Billion Views Club. Dane Boedigheimer’s animated, live-action still lifes featuring the punny kitchen antics of anthropomorphic fruit with irritating senses of humor crossed the 10-figure viewcount threshold sometime earlier this month. Orange’s friends came together to poke fun at the wisecrackin’ piece of citrus in celebrity roast in celebration of the milestone. And if some of the voices of those roasting friends in the video below sound familiar, that’s because they belong to some of the biggest names on YouTube. Boedigheimer wrangled iJustine, The Fine Brothers, Kassem G, Tobuscus, Mystery Guitarman, Barats and Bereta, Greg Benson, Smosh, DeStorm, Richard Ryan, Shaycarl, Lauren Francesca, Buck Hollywood, and a few more individuals with substantial online followings to channel edible household items and say a few words. And here are the words Boedigheimer had for the occasion:...

The Roman Empire was brutal, repressive, tyrannical, corrupt, morally bankrupt… Well, nothing’s perfect, right? After all, the Empire’s collapse after 700 years didn’t bring freedom or reformation, but the Dark Ages – disease, ignorance, witch trials, book burnings, illiteracy, and all that other bad stuff which made the Dark Ages so damned dark.
It’s like that line in Monty Python’s Life of Brian: a Jewish revolutionary group is plotting the overthrow of their Roman overseers, and ringleader John Cleese declares, “After all, what’ve the Romans ever done for us?”
After which Cleese’s followers offer a shopping list – a long shopping list – of the benefits of Roman occupation. An exasperated Cleese finally concedes/concludes with, “All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?”

Fans of YouTube’s most favorite anthropomorphic fruit with a penchant for puns will be able to catch his kitchen antics on television screens sometime in the first half of 2012. Cartoon Network picked up a 15-episode order of The Annoying Orange TV series from creator Dane Boedigheimer and “full-service entertainment management, media and content production company” The Collective back in November. As Boedigheimer told us, ““Basically the plan is to really take advantage of TV’s longer format and expand the Ao world way beyond what it is on YouTube…really dive into the characters and their personalities.” But television and Cartoon Network aren’t the only places to which The Annoying Orange is expanding. You can currently find the irritating little guy in your local neighborhood Toys “R” Us and JCPenney. The Collective teamed up with toymaker The Bridge Direct (the same company that makes miniature likenesses of Justin Bieber,...

The news of a TV series based on one of YouTube’s most popular series, The Annoying Orange, has been out there for over a year. But today came word just where that show is going to live, as Cartoon Network picked up creator Dane Boedigheimer’s six-episode longer form animated version. Management company and production house The Collective partnered with Boedigheimer to produce six episodes of The Annoying Orange animated TV comedy series. The episodes come complete with A-list cartoon talent, including Tom Sheppard (Pinky and the Brain) handling writing responsibilities, Conrad Vernon (co-director of Monsters and Aliens, Shrek 2) executive producing, and Malcom McDowell lending his voice to one of the characters. Release date is not yet set, though sometime in the first half of next year is what we are hearing. The online version will continue on their YouTube channel, with its 2.2 million subscribers still a very fertile platform for the franchise.
