Kicking off Vs the Network 2023 Part 1, we've got a beloved show made by Simpsons alumni that was far from reaching its popularity...

A 15 years later retrospective on one of my favorite cancelled cartoon series. I caught this series on Adult Swim one night and never understood why it was cancelled...until now. I know this video is different than my norm, but I wanted to bring awareness to this awesome series. Let me know how you feel about this one...

Literally everybody I know who has watched this show has watched it because I forced them to so I've decided I'm going to force all of you to watch it as well now.

Today we take a look at the cult classic Mission Hill and see why it was cancelled, and how good it really was.

If you ask me for a show that was ahead of its time, my go-to answer will always be Mission Hill. The intricately detailed and just downright fascinating art design. The cool, yet sparring unhinged, animation that is matched by a wild soundscape. The writing that still remains witty and relevant to this day. And the superb voice acting! So how did this immensely brilliant cartoon fall so far off-the-radar and leave a scarring impact on its creators? This is What Happened to Mission Hill.

Sound off in the comments if you are an OG Mission Hill fan!!!
