George Liquor

OK, so its still pretty surreal that I, Ryan Karell, could be creating a cartoon with John K. (the guy who did Ren & Stimpy.) But, it's true. And alot of people I've mentioned this project to have been fans of John's for years, and wanna know what we're up to. So as the project progresses, I'll post some stuff. All of this can be accessed at johnkstuff.blogspot.com, if you want to see more.

The gist of what we're doing is this - through lots of hard work by Jeff Cruz, Jaime Perry, Don Peasley and myself, my agency (Leo Burnett) has sold the idea of the Pontiac Vibe sponsoring The George Liquor Progam. John has had this idea for a few years now, to integrate a product into a variety cartoon show. And to make the ads just as funny as the episodes. We'll, we're on our way to doing just that.

Here are some highlights I can share thus far.

Most of this is from John K, but some are the work of Jim Smith and Rex Hackelberg

Look for more to come!
