The Little Adventures of Bruno (formerly known as The Bruno Show) is an upcoming American animated television series created by Arrested Development creator Mitchell Hurwitz for Hub Network. This cartoon focuses on the adventures of a high school student who is the unluckiest boy in the world.
Production[edit]
After his previous series, Sit Down, Shut Up got cancelled by Fox in 2009, Hurwitz is developing a children's cartoon series. This cartoon will feature the return of all of the teachers from the previous series with all of the voices reprising there roles. In addition to the original cast of the previous series, anime voice actor Mona Marshall will play the lead character, Janice Kawaye will play his love interest and Andrew Rannells will play his best friend. The cartoon is produced to be similar to slapstick cartoons from the 1940s, sitcoms from the 1980s to the 2000s and Steven Spielberg cartoons from the 1990s. In fact, Rob Paulsen, Jess Harnell and Tress MacNeille will be starring in the new cartoon parodying their roles from Steven Spielberg's Animaniacs. Coincidentally Animaniacs and Happy Days (a series starring actor Henry Winkler) are currently airing on Hub Network.
Also, similar to Hannah Barbera cartoons during the 1960s, each show is separated into three subplots. The first one is the "Bruno" segments, the second one is "Internet Jukebox"; a series of music videos with classic characters singing original songs, and the third one is "Chicken Haired"; series of pantomime shorts starring a chicken haircutted boy.
Plot[edit]
The plot has several elements to Doraemon, Welcome Back, Kotter and Happy Days. This cartoon focuses on a teenage boy named Bruno who has the worst luck in the world in the town of Knob Haven from bullies, evil loves and careless teachers.
