CNN is reporting about a Spaceballs cartoon to air on G4 next year!

'Spaceballs' to become TV cartoon

This is fantastic news! Mel Brooks will be playing two characters, although it doesn't mention Yogurt or President Skroob by name.

I'd watch the first season at least(assuming it lasts multiple seasons). The real question is which route should they go with it: CGI or traditional animation? I'd probably prefer traditional.

I'd imagine traditional animation.

The company doing it works in both 2-D and 3-D animation though so its anyone's guess.

I'd almost forgotten about this, as it's been a few years sicne they first annoucned this project. Glad to see it didn't fall into development hell.

I'm a bit nervous about this. I love the original movie, but I'm worried that this'll just be lower in quality. I'd much rather a movie sequel.

This won't be good.

Spaceballs as it is wasn't terribly amazing.

Normally I'd agree with you. But since Mel Brooks is involved, I'm sure it will be great.

"Just remember, Lonestar, evil will always triumph because good is dumb."

Best line in a Mel Brooks film ever.

The only other lines in a Mel Brooks film that I find equally as funny are in Young Frankenstein.

"My grandfather's work was do-do!!!" and. . .

"Would you like a roll in the hay? Roll, roll, roll in the hay."

Spaceballs is classic- it's one of the few films that pretty much anyone can quote practically verbatim. I've worked more than one job where employees would just call out random quotes from teh film while closing, for someone else to reply with the next line from the film, and they always did. laugh
