Felix the Cat is the first television series featuring the famous cartoon character Felix the Cat.
In 1954 Otto Messmer retired from the Felix daily newspaper strips, and his assistant Joe Oriolo (the co-creator of Casper the Friendly Ghost) took over. Oriolo struck a deal with Felix's new owner to begin a new series of Felix cartoons on television. Oriolo went on to star Felix in 260 television cartoons distributed by Trans-Lux. Like the Van Beuren studio before, Oriolo gave Felix a more domesticated and pedestrian personality, geared more toward children, and introduced now-familiar elements such as Felix's "Magic Bag of Tricks", a satchel that could assume the shape and characteristics of anything Felix wanted. Those cartoons were divided into two parts, because when Felix was in distress, or in a jam, the announcer would intone before the concluding episode: "What will happen to Felix , in the next exciting episode, in the "Adventures of Felix the Cat?"

Plot: Taking place over the course of 12 years, the story starts in 1999 where two boys growing up in the same poor area of Hackney take on different paths in life. The story is told through eyes of Azad, a poor young Indian boy who dreams of becoming a Film maker one day. Azad is too fragile and too scared to get involved in any crime or violence, and also to clever to be content with his underpaid job. From a young age he discovers he can see reality with a different eye: the eye of an artist. His story narrates the violence and police corruption surrounding London Town and the rise of one of the areas most notorious criminals Felix The Cat. As Felix The Cat and his Gang wage war on the streets Azad's only way out of this violent life is to expose its brutality this world through his film. Along the way the lives of other people are put into perspective as their stories intersect with the events that take place. Through Azad's prospective of life, we understand the humanity of a world condemned to endless violence.

Plot: Two sci-fi geeks take a pilgrimage to America's UFO heartland. While there, they accidentally meet an alien who brings them on an insane road trip that alters their universe forever. For the past 60 years, an alien named Paul (voiced by 'Seth Rogen' (qv)) has been hanging out at a top-secret military base. When he discovers he's been taken prisoner, the space-traveling smart ass decides to escape the compound and hop on the first vehicle out of town - a rented RV containing Earthlings Graeme Willy ('Simon Pegg' (qv)) and Clive Gollings ('Nick Frost (I)' (qv)). Chased by federal agents and the fanatical father of a young woman that they accidentally kidnap, Graeme and Clive hatch a fumbling escape plan to return Paul to his mother ship. And as two nerds struggle to help, one little green man might just take his fellow outcasts from misfits to intergalactic heroes.
