1980s animated kids' show Rude Dog and the Dweebs is being rebooted as an adult animated series

Created by Brad McMahon, Rude Dog and the Dweebs ran for three months on CBS' Saturday morning lineup in 1989, based on the Sun Sportswear mascot. Nic Izzi of Red20 announced he's received McMahon's blessing to revive the show as an adult animated series. “Rude Dog and its brand left an indelible mark on its generation,” Izzi said. ”Rude Dog’s story evolves into a satire about the broken institutions which have left behind the working class. Audiences have embraced the wide spectrum of adult animation, from joke-heavy comedies to sophisticated tales of reconstruction, which is exactly the vibe Rude Dog evokes.”
