The Video Games Most In Need Of Getting An Animated Series Adaptation

ToeJam & Earl

ToeJam & Earl was an entry in Sega’s library that felt like one of the crowning distinctions in how they were different than Nintendo. The action-platformer titles don’t offer particularly deep gameplay, but there’s an addictive story and memorable characters in place that earned the game its several sequels and follow-ups. The premise of alien rappers who crash land on Earth and are put on a music-based mission already feels like a storyline from an episode of Rick and Morty, which is why Justin Roiland would be particularly appropriate for a ToeJam & Earl animated series. All of Roiland’s various animated series and contributions seem to represent the same acerbic and eccentric sense of humor that’s present in ToeJam & Earl. Roiland is someone who absolutely delights in the nonsensical and there’s just so much of that in ToeJam & Earl. It’d be very entertaining to watch this unusual duo slowly acclimate to Earth and invade the music industry.
