Production Library
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- LATV Networks, the nation's first
bilingual music/entertainment network distributed via digital multicast,
announced today that it had signed an agreement with Over-Man Productions
for the comedic animated series Caesar and Chuy. The second animated series
in LATV's original programming block, Caesar and Chuy will premiere
tomorrow, November 8 at 9:30 p.m. PT.
"Our viewers look to us for edgy and fun programming, reflecting the
bicultural and bilingual experience in America. Caesar and Chuy provides
exactly that -- an irreverent slice-of-life commentary that is classic
LATV," said Rick Najera, VP Programming Development, LATV. "This series is
funny, top-notch and very on-the-mark. We certainly think it will connect
with our audience nationwide."
Caesar and Chuy are animated rockers and music video critics that
comment on people and music from their very cheeky point of view. Artistic
Warfare and Alfonso Arney Designs have teamed up as Over-Man Productions to
produce the new animated series. The executive producers are Keu Reyes and
Alfonso Arney. The voice of Caesar will be played by Nut'n Nice
creator/writer Mr. Reyes and the voice of Chuy will be played by Mr.
Najera.
LATV's first foray into animation was The Homies Hip-Hop Show based on
the worldwide figurine phenomenon created by Dave Gonzales. The
stop-motion, one-hour program is animated by Nicholas Romero. The series is
written by Renee Sandoval, Oskar Toruno and Mr. Najera who also wrote for
MAD TV and In Living Color as well as creating Latinologues. Airing on
Tuesdays and Thursdays at 9:00 p.m. PT, the show consists of eight to 10
sketches with interlaced music videos. Skits on the show parody popular
culture as well as skewer life in general.
