Fatkat Inc.'s SPACE KNIGHTS, an animated parody of super hero cartoons of the late 1990s, will debut in fall 2008 as a part of The Detour on TELETOON Pilot Project. The Project is a recent initiative of TELETOON that invites producers to submit new, no-holds-barred comedy to be broadcast on the network's popular teen/adult-oriented programming block.
The SPACE KNIGHTS are a group of slightly outdated superheroes who drive Honda Accords that, when linked together, can transform into a variety of giant robots, from a pterodactyl, to a giant T-Rex, to a saber-toothed tiger. They use these and other powers to battle a never-ending stream of bizarre creatures and insane villains, while trying to keep their own bickering and infighting under control.
Fatkat, based in New Brunswick, Canada, began in 2003 as a service animation house with four employees, and today employs over 120 full-time staff, providing a range of production needs within the animation industry. Fatcat has worked on numerous television series including HAPPY TREE FRIENDS and THREE DELIVERY, a co-venture with Animation Collective, and has now moved to developing its own content for various genres.
