The first episode of “Frog” was really great! It made my day and was very much worth the pledge!
Matt Stevanus on 10 May 2010 at 5:32 pm #
OH SWEET GOD! I laughed my ass off at the first short, especially at the part where the one frog came in and chugged the coffee and his head exploded! Nice one Joe, I loved the first episode, funny stuff! I really hope to see more and hope this project gets the funding it deserves!
Corey McDaniel on 10 May 2010 at 6:36 pm #
Oh man, I seriously busted out loud laughing at – -
WOOP! Don’t want to give it away!
You convinced me to up my pledge!
I really do hope the funding comes through. I want to see more FIAS!
Rock on Joe!

The first episode claims how much it bears the potential of becoming a huge success. I have no doubt it will be fully funded. What I’d like to see is even further. It deserves to air on TVs eventually and become a second “Rocko’s Modern Life” in our lives. Especially when there are hardly any good animated shows around nowadays, compared to 90’s. I’m telling this as an animator who suffers.
No wonder it will reanimate the traditional animation world.
Awesome episode Joe

The private screening of “Frog in a Suit” was INDEED swell!
Nice work thus far dude. I like the premise of KaBoingTV alot, especially the parts about retaining ownership, that’s much-appreciated. Much luck to you from our studio in MD, Joe! Here’s hoping we can be one of the first to showcase our pilot on KaBoing TV.
Also, how’s the next episode coming along?
Jeff on 10 May 2010 at 10:53 pm #
Really enjoyed the private screening, solid work!

Well, I suppose I have a cartoon pitch that is getting anywhere. Sure, I’ll donate some money. I dont’ have much, but what the hey… I respect what you doing

Hi Joe–
I’m about to do Kickstarters myself and just came across your bio and project. Sounds really great. At some point, will you be looking into other animated ideas? I have an intellectual property that includes a character I’ve developed along with other characters and a treatment. I’ve been told I shouldn’t approach networks because I could lose more than I could gain. My character is also attached to a brand I’ve created. Would love for you to check out my site which is listed in my info above. Michele
Joe on 15 May 2010 at 10:52 am #
Thats great Michele. Good luck with your project. I’ll check it out.
Yes, I will be looking for more shows to put on the site once we get up and running. A network will want to own everything. To some thats an okay trade off. To others it’s not. You just have to follow your gut.
Keep me posted on how things are going.
Joe

murray hey I actually feel very grateful that you answered my question
in the episode of Rocko’s Modern Life: Popcorn Pandemonium hefer when rocko and run out of the room that caught fire, the number of cinema was 666 …
my question is … just put it as humor to the viewers? or you really like the number 666? (For the episode that takes durasnito hepher to hell) that’s it
Joe on 18 May 2010 at 4:48 pm #
Everything is done for a reason Hector. Although some meanings may not go as deep as some will interpret.
I always instructed everyone from prop designers, background designers etc, to never let an opportunity go by where you might insert a gag somewhere, however small it is.
See,,,, you noticed it.
We were always at odds with the censors over “hell” references, so someone probably wanted to stick something in there out of rebellion.

You’ve hit $14,189! There’s no doubt you’re going to make it.
Shawn Hoffman on 26 May 2010 at 5:59 am #
Woo! Just made my contribution and you’re at 94% funding. Looks like KaboingTV is on it’s way! I wish i had the disposable income to put it over the top, but oh boy am i broke!

WHOOOOO!!!!!
J.D. Lehn on 27 May 2010 at 11:51 am #
You did it. Congratulations. =D
I… I honestly don’t know what to say other than that. I went over what I could possibly say to do KaboingTV justice, but nothing seemed to fit. I guess all I can really say is thank you. Thank you for beginning this amazing project, and another thank you to all the people who pledged money. I hope to see some fine animation spring forth very soon.
I guess I have lots of work to do now making something pitchable. See ya.
Joe on 27 May 2010 at 11:56 am #
Thanks JD. I have lots of work to do also!

congratulations, may the farce be with you……

Hey Joe.
I wished I could have pledged some money into this. However, after a friend told me about this on an art website, I decided to help advertise this project by showing links to the webpage and I guess every little helped since it managed to reach the target goal. All that’s left to say is congradulations and I wish you the very best of luck with Kaboing TV =D
