Weekend Pussy Hunt

Weekend Pussy Hunt

"Weekend Pussy Hunt" was an Internet-only cartoon series created by John Kricfalusi of Spümcø for [http://www.icebox.com/ icebox.com] . The series was developed after Spümcø's first Internet-only series "The Goddamn George Liquor Show".

The animation is primarily by Matt Danner (with Albert Lozano, Fred Osmond, Wil Branca, and Ken Boyer also animating certain episodes), with storyboard by Jim Smith. The cartoon features Dirty Dog, Cigarettes the Cat, Brother Dog, Leg Hussy, Bugs Pussy, and Girlfriend. It contains humor intended for adults, such as excrement, vomit, anatomy, and sex jokes. Adult interactive games in the cartoon allows the viewer to click parts of the cartoon for an animated result. Most of the episodes begin with a puzzle game.

Kricfalusi recalled::"Weekend Pussy Hunt" was a film noir cartoon. We serialized it so that every week there'd be a cliffhanger. Its style was a 1940s live-action "film noir" movie. and we based one of the characters, Dirty Dog, on one of my favorite movie actors, Robert Ryan. "Weekend Pussy Hunt" was basically a chase movie, a really dark hardboiled thriller. We started off fooling the audience. We wanted them to think it was like a 1940s Warner Brothers chase cartoon between a dog and a cat, but as we moved on, they got uglier and uglier and uglier. You found out more about who this dog was; he was the king of the underworld animals in the neighborhood. So it becomes this ugly dark "film noir" kind of a movie.

Kricfalusi is also credited with pioneering the first Internet-only cartoon series that used Adobe Flash technology years before online entertainment became mainstream.

"Weekend Pussy Hunt" was never finished; Icebox ran out of money. Spümcø's web animation staff was laid off just before Thanksgiving, during the production of episode 13, with about four episodes left to go.
