As the highly-anticipated follow-up to the Amp'd Mobile original animated series and new Comedy Central series, LIL' BUSH, Amp'd Mobile announced the launch of its newest made-for-mobile animated series, LIL' HOLLYWOOD. The parody series will follow the pint-sized adventures of Hollywood's hottest celebrities as they try to get through their day-to-day lives, which we all know is no small task.
"We realized, 'Hey these Hollywood celebrities are pretty funny -- why doesn't anyone ever make fun of them,'" said series creator and industry veteran Donick Cary, writer of THE SIMPSONS, JUST SHOOT ME and LATE NIGHT WITH DAVID LETTERMAN.
LIL' HOLLYWOOD is the second made-for-mobile partnership between Amp'd and Cary, who teamed to create this series with Tony Barbieri, writer of THE MAN SHOW and JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE and Rich Goodman, writer of ACCORDING TO JIM.
"Britney Spears loves shaving things, and we'd like to thank her for trimming her schedule to provide us with so much material for LIL' HOLLYWOOD this past week," said Seth Cummings, svp, content development & programming at Amp'd. "Together with Lil' Mel Gibson, Lil' Paris Hilton, Lil' Lindsay Lohan, and Lil' Scientologists like Lil' Tom Cruise and Lil' Travolta, our customers, who have been craving the launch of LIL' HOLLYWOOD, will be stuffed to the rafters."
The hugely popular LIL' BUSH is the first-ever mobile original series to make the leap to television. This summer, the animated series will premiere on Comedy Central.
