Title: New odd show
Post by: Ghostavo on October 08, 2006, 05:55:24 pm: Quote
Creator of I'm With Busey will make animated show about 1980s video game programmers.

Adam de la Pena, the creator of Comedy Central's I'm With Busey, has signed with video game network G4 to create a show about video game programmers in the 1980s. The as-yet-untitled show follows two programmers who work for a small video game company that gets purchased by a Texas mogul who knows nothing about video games.

I'm With Busey was a reality show that followed de la Pena and actor Gary Busey through a series of comedic misadventures in Los Angeles. De la Pena is also the cocreator of Adult Swim's Minoriteam, for which he also provides voices.
