I know! Let's make a cartoon about a kid in a wheelchair!
>and it will be kino
>>151109251You think he wears a diaper or has a colostomy bag?
>>151109251>this sure is going to be a huge success
>>151109251No shit, the guy who created this was a cripple.
it was the '90s version of "let's make a cartoon about a brown lesbian"
>>151110003There are not a ton of cartoons about people with legitimate disabilities, you have to be kidding me
>>151109251Is this Canadaslop?
>>151110003>>151110014They would either already be part of the gang but not the main character or they'd show up for a very special episode.
a crippled creator wanted to make a cartoon so crippled kids can also have fun in the most boring way possible.Some things never change
>>151110037That’s what I mean, they’re never the main character and usually not the main cast
I think the archetype of a wheelchair bound person is past the line of cultural recognition where it becomes innevitable that a show will be based around it. I can't really be mad about it, someone was eventually going to do it.
>>151110028Yes
>>151109251I used to love the nightlife, hang out in a bar... I used to hit the bottle, but then I hit a car. Laid up in a wheelchair. Paralyzed for life! Got money through a settlement to see me through the strike!My attitude is different now my future's not so bleak. I even got a mansion and filled it full of freaks!My life, such as it is.My life, such as it is.Such as it is!My severed friends are with me. They're brilliantly deformed! I got a girl called Franny. My shelter from the storm!Don't toss your coins of pity. The hard times never last. Without a leg to stand onI still manage to kick ass!My life, such as it is.My life, such as it is.Such as it is!Paralyzed...Paralyzed...For life!I always thought it said "sucks as it is", which honestly would have made more sense.
>>151109251>watched the adult version as a kid>only saw Pelwick playing on adult swim as an adultWhat the fuck
>>151109260Was it really? Never seen it
Kellehan died in 2010, so this will probably be a buyer- controlled show that will be all inspirational and touchy-feely, with none of his original humor.Which is gonna be a shame.
>>151112004
>>151109251Your cartoon pitch don't have a leg to stand on.
>>151109251was there anything entertaining about this shit?
>>151112004What the fuck are you talking about.
>>151109251Didn't this guy make Quads?
>>151112004>>151112017>>151112056>>151112079This is surprising to learn about given the kids' show celebrating disabilities, but it's great. Almost like a more topical Far Side.
>>151112298Yes.He also fucking died
John Callahan was a based motherfuckerHe was a severe alcoholic who ended up getting paralyzed from the neck down and so he took his frustrations out by making some of the most politically incorrect comics on the planet. When people complained he told them to fuck off.His story actually got made into a film with Joaquin Phoenix https://youtu.be/2BwxeOzSx8A
>>151112004>Kellehan died in 2010 damn
You reminded me of this one cartoon I watched when I was a kid with a bunch of highschool kids except one was missing an arm.I always thought they played that out very well because in the ep where he is introduced, they all try to be "nice" to him , only to realise, by the end of the episode, that they are ostracizing him by treating him like an autist. So they treat him like normal for the rest of the show and the conflict is resolved. I can't remember for the life of me what the show was called.
>>151113295Yeah from complications relating to his quad condition.Pretty cool he made one kids cartoon and adult cartoon with wheelchair bound blokes.
>>151109251>Pelswick Please tell me that's his surname or something...
>>151109251nortubel tier pitch
>>151109251Does he get beat up
>>151109251Brilliant!
>>151112298What's Quads?
>>151111275>Got money through a settlement to see me through the strike!Misheard lyrics? "Strife" would make more sense.
>>151118153https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Callahan%27s_Quads!
>>151109251The creator is disabled himself and based the character off himself
>>151109987What a loser lmao
>>151109251wasn't there something about his best friend being god or something
>>151120613The fuck
>>151120613>>151120613Nah thats just the homeless guy that would f7ck his ass because he couldn't feel it. It was cool tho hed give Pelswick Alf pogs.
>>151121706oh I love Alf
>>151120613Close, dude was his guardian angel, iirc his name was Jimmy.>>151121706>>151121889This made me laugh more than it should've, thanks, anons.>captcha: SAGN0A
>>151109251It was pretty fun.
>>151109251
>>151109251Why don't we ever done this before?
>>151109251I like that he has a backwards cap on, lets me know he's a cool dude
>>151110003Except it wasn't, because Pelswick being in a wheelchair wasn't the core focus of his character.
>>151109251>Sanjay and Craig but good
>>151112571Thanks for the reminder. I knew they made a movie about him at some point but I couldn't remember for the life of me if it was a biopic or a documentary. Now to find a download somewhere so I don't have to give Bezos money.
>>151127117So, Sanjay and Craig?
>>151109251>Cripple Doug
>>151120073I hope you get ran over and lose half of your motor skills you fucking nigger.
I have never seen Pelswick, but I enjoyed Quads a lot.I think it's highly underrated and actually pulls off "sex and swearing" comedy better than most "adult" comedies do.
I heard you liked wheelchair bound bitches, /co/.
>>151109251I always get this shit mixed up with "Quads"
Wheels!
>>151115712Eggert. That's his last surname...
>>151128998As already said, same creator.
>>151109251why not
>>151129146In fact of course......
>>151129146The Read family's living room is so comfy, don'tcha think?
>>151109251I watched this show a few times when I was a kid and I remember it actually being OK.
>>151131050It's just a normal ass living room
>>151129119Hey lets make the cripple gay too for funsies.
>>151129064Hahahahahaha
>>151127281
>>151109251This show is highly satanic God does not care for the week
>>151114812He leaves behind an obscure yet impressive legacy.
