Disney remembered it exists, as it submitted the show for Annecy 2026. Also with a screenshot.https://www.annecyfestival.com/en/the-festival/official-selection/tv-and-commissioned-films/tv-films/the-doomies-night-the-fishing-dead?fbclid=IwY2xjawQukk1leHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFCOHp4clp2SW5oanY2dmRyc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHpipVEDzdWbrtrr_4XALZJ3zaLL_9vI-fsmvujS19mZIDClLarFd9PXqXeK0_aem_ZmFrZWR1bW15MTZieXRlcw
>>152939044Also unveiled a title and synopsis for the episode that got submitted to the festival.>The Doomies "Night of the Fishing Dead">Best friends Bobby and Romy accidentally unleash evil into their sleepy hometown in Brittany. They're helped in their fight against the creatures of doom by a mysterious teenaged warrior named Kim. In this episode, they take Kim to an arcade in the hopes of teaching her how to be a "real" teenager.
>>152939044>>152939064Exciting!
well now what...
>>152939064Fuck. I had an idea for a game similar to this cartoon.Welp, time to start over. Back to the drawing board.
>>152939165Likely we will get news in the coming weeks since they were okay with giving a never-before seen screencap of the show
>>152939064>>152939337The Doomies could be a fun new horror toon, but yet again all signs point to it having stayed locked in a vault for way too long, so any chance of a season renewal later on is already dashed before we even get a solid premiere date. I'm glad we might be getting it at all, but this still kills fandom morale for many people. And you can bet anyone who worked on this first season was laid off *at least* 3+ years ago.
>>152939396doomies is getting two seasons, they just wanted to make both before the show premieres for some reason
>>152939462Well thats dumb.
>>152940284It's not really. Old syndicated cartoons used to drop with like 50+ episodes in a single big "season" and maybe get another 10-20 if the show was successful.Presumably this is a similar approach, coming to the table with a lot of content out the gate.
>>152939396It's very common for Disney, they have that Darkwing Duck reboot with Jim Cummings being vocal about it on public events but Disney has remain silently about it.
>>152939044Okay here's what we know on the show>4 episode extension for Season 1 now being 26 episodes long>4 standalone shorts introducing every character (Bobby, Romy, Kim, Doug)>Disney Enterprises Inc has trademarked merchandise plans alongside Dragon Striker
>>152940402I suppose that makes sense.
>>152939044>Annecy 2026 That's really far away though...
>>152944788It's less than 3 months, anon.
>>152944788Even if it was closer it still is just a preview right? We still have no idea when the show will actually be airing?
>>152944788>Annecy 2026 got delayed till the end of June due the French president having a meeting
>>152947355Sacre BLEU!
>>152947355>It's true>France’s Annecy International Animation Film Festival has shifted the dates for its next edition back by two weeks to June 21-27, 2026.>The move follows an announcement by French President Emmanuel Macron that the Haute-Savoie region, in which Annecy is situated, will host a G7 meeting at the same time as the festival’s traditional dates in early June.https://deadline.com/2025/07/annecy-dates-change-2026-edition-1236452946/
>>152939044WELL ITS ABOUT DAMN TIME
>>152939044>>152939064Side note: Why does Disney Branded Television prefer to only announce animated stuff at Annecy? I just noticed how they have been skipping events like SDCC, NYCC, and D23 for the past three years; even Big City Greens and Kiff, who are supposed to be their biggest shows, skip these three events
>>152939044vaporware cartoon
>>152951067It is kinda weird, isn't it?
