The Mask Animated Series Is Peak 90's Animation
When he dons an ancient Nordic mask, Stanley Ipkiss moves at warp speed, knows your every desire, satisfies your every whim, and dances like Fred Astaire, Gumby, and Barishnikov combined. He's s-s-s-smokin'! Based on the film The Mask, this animated series tells the story of sweet, socially inept bank teller Ipkiss, who discovers a mask that transforms him into a superhero … but one whom you may not want to call for help. The Mask series was developed for television by Duane Capizzi (Transformers: Prime, Carmen Sandiego) and produced by Dark Horse Entertainment, New Line Television, and Film Roman for CBS, with animation serviced by Sunbow. The series aired for a total of three seasons and 54 episodes from August 12, 1995, to August 30, 1997, on CBS and syndication – but continues to have an adoring fanbase to this day.
I loved this show even more than the film version back in the day. Boy, was I in for a surprise as a kid when I liked it so much that I bought a bunch of The Mask Dark Horse comics to read. I loved those, too, but this show will always hold a special place in my personal animation pantheon.
