Metalocalypse creator has an idea for big finale…but he needs your help

Metalocalypse S4

Brendon Small did an AMA interview the other day on UltimateGuitar.com, and in it, the creator of Metalocalypse didn’t want to spill so many details as to what happened with the series on Adult Swim, but he DID give us a way to bring it back:

Fans have desperately been awaiting the release of Season 5 of Metalocalypse. What is the current situation for the final conclusion? Is there any chance for it to be made on Netflix?

Brendon: Here’s all that I know: I have a final story I really like, and I think since Hulu currently has a license for the streaming rights I believe that would be a good place for the final story. If they were to partner with Adult Swim, then maybe we’d have a place for the shows that still have a strong audience that the network can no longer afford. Get on Twitter or Facebook and tell Hulu how much you love “Metalocalypse” and who knows what’ll happen?

As swell as this idea seems to be, why couldn’t Adult Swim just stream a final episode for free similar to the way they did for Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forever? I mean, I guess Adult Swim would make more money the other way, but I’m sure the network is well aware of the Dethklok fan-base moreso than Hulu, so while I would totally accept Brendon’s idea, I like mine better.

Hulu could use another animated hit, and I think the 12-minute shows should be an avenue that the network goes on. They already have a streaming deal with Adult Swim, why not build around that?
