Sony Crackle RIP…In Canada

Sony Crackle, the streaming home for original series like SuperMansion, has officially ceased operations in Canada.

SuperMansion just took a break as part of its third season but is expecting a Summer special and then a return this fall with Minnie Driver joining the cast. Word is, Sony is shopping SuperMansion do other Canadian TV networks and streaming services to be made available sooner rather than later.

“Robot Chicken” fans take note, “SuperMansion” comes from many of the same people as the long-running Adult Swim favorite. Instead of focusing on pop culture and nostalgic toys, though, it’s a superhero-centric show. Aging superhero Titanium Rex — voiced by Emmy, Golden Globe and Tony Award-winning actor Bryan Cranston — has long headed the League of Freedom, a once-proud group of heroes that is on the decline due to an influx of heroes from the millennial generation who have little interest in fighting crime. Rex ends up mentoring the young warriors in the SuperMansion, where they live together, as they try to learn to fight for justice, liberty and the need to stay relevant to society.
