All original 14 episodes of NATIONAL LAMPOON PRESENTS MR.WONG bows Feb. 17 on DVD (Maverick Ent., $19.98), along with a never-before-seen bonus episode and lots of extras, including guest stars Robert Evans and Troy Hurtubise, audio commentary, outtakes, recipes and more.
MR. WONG originated in 2000 on Icebox.com (www.icebox.com), where the series grew to become one of the most popular and talked-about animated shows, amassing a huge fan base and being compared to SOUTH PARK. Created by Pam Brady and Kyle McCulloch (of SOUTH PARK fame), the show follows the misadventures of Mr. Wong, an 85-year-old Chinese houseboy and his wickedly funny -- and high maintenance - employer, Miss Pam. Joining them on their acid-coated romp in search of kicks, friendship and maybe even love are the memorable characters Treasure Cat and Gary Peterson.
Bill Desowitz, former editor of VFXWorld, is currently the Crafts Editor of IndieWire.
