While the Pendleton Ward-created Adventure Time may be set to end its run after eight years and 10 seasons, Finn, Jake, Princess Bubblegum and the rest of the gang aren't going out quietly -- as we can see from this newly released teaser from Cartoon Network.

With a little more than a week to go before the premiere of Supernatural's eagerly anticipated animated crossover with Scooby-Doo, the CW has released a mountain of preview pics for Season 13’s 16th episode, ‘Scoobynatural.’

After 15-1/2 seasons, Fox's Family Guy finally took viewers to the one place the show has resisted going since it premiered in 1999: the mind of Stewie Griffin. But on the occasion of their 300th episode, the Seth MacFarlane series enlisted the help of none other than Sir Ian McKellen to analyze the lovable tyrant.

Rick and Morty co-creator Dan Harmon isn't exactly what you would call a "dabbler" in social media interaction, using it to regularly update fans on what's going on in his life both personally and professionally. One thing in particular Harmon has a reputation for: confronting critics online.

Rick and Morty, our "Two Horsemen of the Inter-Dimensional Apocalypse," go the Quentin Tarantino/Pulp Fiction route with an ultimate Vincent and Jules "cosplay" in the new promotional video for Adult Swim Fest, set to Run the Jewels (El-P and Killer Mike) track "Oh Mama" from the rap duo's 2016 album Run the Jewels 3.

With Disney's 2018 version of Muppet Babies ready to take its first steps next week, the network is showing that even though times change, some things very much stay the same. Case in point? Kermit (Matt Daner) and Fozzie's (Eric Bauza) ability to amp up the drama on something as simple as "Show-n-Tell".

Co-created by Bob-Waksberg and BoJack Horseman writer-producer Kate Purdy and starring Rosa Salazar (The Maze Runner films) and Angelique Cabral (Life in Pieces), the series marks Amazon Studios' first foray into adult-focused animation. "We're delighted to greenlight our first animated half-hour series Kate and Raphael are dynamic and creative forces, and I know they will create an[...]

In Archer: Danger Island, Sterling Archer (H. Jon Benjamin) is trading the gumshoe life of 1947 Los Angeles-esque Dreamland for an island adventure filled with spies, double-deals... and Krieger as a parrot?

Muppet Babies are back, and they've enlisted a heavy-hitting singing talent to help them keep making dreams come true. Hamilton's Renée Elise Goldsberry has been tapped to sing the theme song ahead of its March 23rd premiere.

Deadline Hollywood is reporting exclusively that Black List scribe Stephany Folsom has been signed to take over writing the script for Pixar's Toy Story 4, the next installment in the insanely huge franchise that's scheduled for a Summer 2019 release.

With Fox's animated hit series Family Guy about to drop its 300th episode, I'm not sure what's more impressive: that the Seth MacFarlane series bested a ton of early naysayers to achieve such a milestone; or that Adult Swim still rotates the same 26 episodes on a regular basis.

The project is directed by Kobun Shizuno and Hiroyuki Seshita, with Toho Animation and Polygon Pictures handling production duties The film's voice cast also includes: Yuuki Kaji, Takahiro Sakurai, Mamoru Miyano, Junichi Suwabe, Kana Hanazawa and Tomokazu Sugita.

Continuing the growing wave of nostalgia-equals-money reboots/revivals that we've seen over the past few years, ABC is developing two series that are both unique takes on known names: The Greatest American Hero and The Jetsons.

If you're DJ/producer (and righteously huge Rick and Morty fan) Deadmau5, you make the pair an offer they can't refuse. At his New Year's Eve show at the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, California, the performer had the mad genius and his grandson join him on stage via video monitors to ring in 2018.

If you're a Rick and Morty fan you can take some consolation in knowing that there's a dimension out there where a fourth season of the hit Adult Swim animated series actually sees the light of day in 2018. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's going to be this one.

As a gift to animation fans and to possibly restart interest in the series, Tindle shared a 60-second teaser for the potential series over New Year's weekend. You can see the teaser for The Haunted Mansion for yourselves here: https://youtu.be/l4CVrcXgy6w And here's the original tweet from Tindle: A little something I was cooking up at Disney, but was unfortunately scuttled[...]
