Yin Yang Yo!
It’s been a while since Fred or I mentioned Bob Boyle on this page.
Besides being the nicest guy I’ve ever met (I’m serious), Bob is the creator of two new cartoons hitting the airwaves in the next two months. One of them, Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!, is a pre-school show being produced by us (Frederator) and Bolder Media over at IDT for an August 28 premiere on Nick Jr (got all that?).
Bob’s other show, Yin Yang Yo!, is in production at Disney and will premiere on Jetix in September. It’s for older kids and much more action/adventurey than WWW! The good folks at the House of Mouse have put online a whole episode of YYY! Watch it here.
Best of luck with Yin Yang Yo!, Bob. I hope it’s the second-most popular cartoon debuting this year.
PS The upfront credits of the episode online, “Dojo Oh No!”, contain the names of both Steve Marmel and John Fountain, two guys who made invaluable contributions to Frederator’s history.
PPS I couldn’t find a good YYY! image to link to, so I included this shot of Bob (center), along with the very talented Fred Stroppel, the head writer on Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!, and Bob’s wife, Terri. Someone, please, let me know where I can find a nice picture of YYY!

I’ve been looking forward to YYY! I didn’t realize it shared a creator with http://WWW. How on earth does one take on two brand-new shows at the same time?!

You may accidently get an episode of WWW! with some bits of YYY story in it. Wubbzy may shoot balls out of his arms and stuff without bob realizing it until he actually see’s the episode :O. jk Bob, but seriously thats some hard work!

Nice bob! Like I told you already, this looks AMAZING!!! Also the animation is great, and those character designs you have for that show are also amazing! I hope your show becomes a big hit! I know im going to be studying that show on animation techniques like I do with fosters! Take Care!

Hey! Thanks for the kind words…
I look at it this way. You and Bob get two to six… Bob and I get six to fourteen… I get Bob on even numbered weekends and odd alternate holidays.
And I want my records back.
