Samurai Jack

Woo, Samurai Jack.

On selling Samurai Jack's unique format to the Cartoon Network:

GT: Luckily, we had done Dexter's before, and Powerpuff, so there was an established relationship. One of the outlines actually said, "After Jack builds weapons, 20 minutes of fighting." That was in the outline that I sent to the Cartoon Network. What we talked about when I was pitching the show to them was that this show was going to have the most amazing fight sequences that anybody's ever seen. And we're not going to cheat the audience and just give them two minutes at the very end after 15 story plots. We're going to give them one very thin, clear, simple story plot, and then 15 minutes of action.

I love SJ. I managed to get all of the SJ toys when they have them at the local Subway.

It's he also working on an EP2: Attack Of The Clones sort of thing for Cartoon Network as well? It'll be interesting to see SW in that type of animation style.
