Adult Swim throws us some PICKLES for this week’s pilots

Adult Swim continues serving up new pilots each week, and this week we see a match up of animated versus live-action.

 

Photo: Hey, Adult Swim fans: we're letting you decide the fate of six never-before-seen pilots! Go to www.adultswim.com/pilots every week over the next three weeks and discover two more brand-new shows to watch, rate and share with the world. Watch them all before August 12, then check back here to see which two finalists will compete for a full on-air debut! The power is in your twitchy, feeble index fingers.

 

We really don’t care about the live-action pilot Adult Swim posted up called GreenBench, but we DID get a new animated pilot called Mr. Pickles. This follows Adult Swim’s recent initiative of posting up pilots on their website for people to vote on and see which one gets air time on Adult Swim and so far we have seen Rolling With Dad, Coffin Dodgers, Ubermansion, and King Star King. Mr. Pickles is a series that was announced at the Upfronts this past year and here’s what we know about the series:

Mr. Pickles: An animated quarter hour with the urban sprawl of modern society which pollutes the old-fashioned town where the Goodman family lives with their lovable pet dog, Mr. Pickles, a deviant border collie with a secret satanic streak. 

The series comes from creators Will Carsola and Dave Stewart (Funny Or Die Presents Nick Swardson’s Pretend Time) and you can vote on the pilot here.

Check back in later this week as we will have the review.
