I got on TV woo!

Posted by Sexual-Lobster - August 6th, 2009


Q&A, a panel show on TV here in Australia, played my cartoon Parliament Deathmatch last night. Two of the three people in the cartoon, Leader of the Opposition Malcolm Turnbull and Deputy Prime Minister Julia Gillard, were on the panel and had no choice but to watch it!

I was a little disappointed that presenter Tony Jones introduced it as a "video manga fantasy", I think calling it that trivialised it somewhat. The comment within the cartoon is about Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's lack of substance and Deputy Prime Minister Julia Gillard's leadership ambitions. Also he said "Parliamentary" instead of "Parliament", I guess my title must be grammatically incorrect or something, oh well.

You could skip the first 50 seconds, I left it there to include the shot of the guests at the very start.

The audience was made up entirely of 16-25 year olds, an age group I think is more likely to find this sort of humour funny. However, because all the topics on the show were youth issues, it wasn't nearly as interesting as their shows usually are, so I suspect less people than usual stuck around to watch the very end.

great work haha, and i think its even funnier to watch it in here knowing that's on tv, and also you made laugh everybody; nice work!
And how did you made it to appear on tv? well your animation

they ask for satirical videos at the end of each episode, and always play one, so i just sent it to their website.

There can be no sweeter victory for an animator than making the actual people you parody have to watch themselves in horrifying caricature. Sort of like when they made Saddam Hussein watch South Park The Movie.

who made him watch that? was that after he was captured? sucked in, saddam.

ITS THE START OF YOUR GLORIOUS WORLD DOMINION

ALL GLORY TO CHRIS, NOW SOMEONE MAKE ME A COFFEE

OK, now you are seriously my idol.

ultra awesome

Way to go Chris! The greasy moose legacy will soon rule the international airwaves!

well not so fast, my next goal is to get something on tv and actually get paid for it.

Oh god, that's such a funny cartoon.

Congratulations! Now you will be known as some random guy people saw on TV.

*tick* another life goal completed

Now your new goal is to get on TV EVERYWHERE! That way when I see it I can be all like I KNOW THAT GUY FROM GREASEYMOOSE AND NEWGROUNDS HOLY EFF!

and then people all over the world will spend their disposable income buying greasy moose shirts and figurines and dvds, right?...right?

Dude that's fucking awesome.

heh, freaking awesome man, congrats.

thanks homocidicle!

WOW THAT THING WAS SO FUNNY I COULD WATCH IT FROM ANOTHER SCREEN!!!
but congrats u ticted off some politics\w/oOo\w/

i'll never know what their reaction was. most likely they just smiled and thought to themselves "gotta look like i can take a joke"

hey man!
would you please say f ?

you want me to say f? f.

wow thats sick. i always like your cartoons great style.

Congrats man! Now for pleasure island to land on tv somewhere :D

i'm thinking late at night. really, really late at night.

awesome. go you

Awesome! Congratulations on that. Surely something will come your way because of that...

thanks! i hope so

Wait... they actually look on the internet for content of their show... éh...

Ah, well, gratulations and good luck for the future.

-Reaper of Victory

i sent it to them, they don't look around themselves.

I feel like it was just a tiny sliver better with the laughing audience, but you didn't need them to make fun of political figures.

aah the canned laughter effect, i always prefer shows without it but when its a live audience its genuine so its ok

Good job, man! I liked it!

thanks rig!

Hahaha fuckin nice, congrats man. I'm across the ocean, but if that's not just a shitty public-access TV block, then that mention should do some good shit for your name.

the show usually has strong ratings, but last night's episode WAS pretty boring, i have a feeling a lot of people would have switched off by then.
