Details after the jump!
Well, it looks as though Amazon has officially passed on animated comedy geared towards adults for the time being as according to a new report coming from Reuters.com, neither Dark Minions nor Supanatural made the cut in Amazon’s recent announcement of pickups which featured mostly live-action comedy and kid stuff. Evidently, Amazon has chosen these shows from listening to viewer feedback comments and as a result that’s how they decided what stays and what goes. That said, I wouldn’t be surprised if cost had something to do with it because making a stop-mo show like Dark Minions is expensive, but I am rather surprised that Supanatural didn’t make the cut. The latter series was hysterical,well-written with a lot of fun characters, and as such I think should be shopped to other networks.
In any case, Amazon isn’t completely done with hearing animated pitches, as we reported on a Sassy Gay Samurai series that was supposedly in the works so maybe there is hope. Check out our reviews of Supanatural and Dark Minions.
