Rooster Teeth’s Red vs Blue to make Ely Rey Network Premiere!

Well, congratulations are in order to the one and only Rooster Teeth for getting a deal with El Rey Network. Premiering December 5^th on El Rey Network, all 13 seasons of Rooster Teeth’s Red vs. Blue have been lovingly and carefully curated and formatted from the original digital shorts into 95 half-hour episodes, which will air weekend mornings from 6:00 to 10:00am ET/PT.

Network founder and Predators producer (more on that later) Robert Rodriguez had this to say in a press release which I thought was interesting:

“I’ve been wanting to carve out an animated component to El Rey’s lineup and this was just the perfect fit for the network. Red vs. Blue is cool, quirky, badass and a little off-beat,” said El Rey Network Founder and Chairman Robert Rodriguez.  “It’s a truly groundbreaking machinima series, with a strong focus on quality writing and pioneering motion capture techniques.  I can’t wait for the El Rey Network audience to check out.”

An animated component, huh? Sounds like more could be on the way for the young network.

But Rob, I’ve got a big fucking bone to pick with you. You need to go back, and begin producing Predators 2. Look, I know Shane Black is in, but he’s gonna take 25 years to produce it, so you might as well step back in and continue what I thought was a successful reboot of the franchise. In the meantime, great job on the pick up.

Monty is looking down on this announcement with his trademark boyish grin, that I can promise. Congrats RT!
