Fox Orders 'Napoleon Dynamite' Toon Series

Fox has picked up two animated series eyed for next season, Napoleon Dynamite, an adaptation of the hit 2004 movie, and Allen Gregory, co-written and executive produced by Jonah Hill. Both series are produced by 20th Century Fox TV; Allen Gregory is a co-production with studio-based Chernin Entertainment. The order to Napoleon Dynamite is for 6 episodes, while Allen Gregory has been picked up for 7 episodes. Both projects originated as presentations.

The original cast of Napoleon Dynamite led by Jon Heder is back to voice the animated series.

I remember when they tried making a few Saturday morning cartoons from TV shows, mostly the Dukes of Hazzard and the A-Team.  They weren't very good.

I liked the movie - it was brainless and quirky.  When it was over, I definitely did not think to myself "can't wait for the sequel" or "damn, they need to make a Saturday morning cartoon outta this".

I hated HATED the movie. I just didn't get it. I usually love dumb comedies, but this one wasn't for me. I will skip the cartoon.
