Questionable Content: The Animated Series

I. Animation Style - Rather obviously, one of the most important points of an animated series is its animation.

A. Would QC:TAS be animated like how it has been drawn?  I imagine Jeph would poop agitated hedgehogs over that, considering how many different art-styles there have been as QC has evolved across the years.

B. Or in a style similar to the popular DCAU?  Dating back to Batman: TAS, the DCAU animation style with its more "simplistic" animation style allows for a surprising amount of flexibility and quality in its use.  This is why it has been kept and used even outside of DC Comics' material.

C. Or would QC:TAS really benefit from CGI?  A far cry from Tron (#1) or The Last Starfighter, where it took military-grade supercomputers to make us believe in Light Cycles and Death Blossom.  Today we have weekly mass combat scenes in Star Wars: The (animated) Clone Wars done from laptops.  Would QC fare better in the Computer Graphic Imaging field?  And at what level of it?

D. QC: The "Anime" Series?  Mentioned that here for completeness, but thinking about it too much gives me nosebleeds at the thought of a "tsundere" Faye, a "sempai" Dora, and "gravure" Marigold... :psyduck:


II. Voice Actors

Unlike Live Action, voice acting opens up a wider range of potential actors-to-role.  While there are some roles that can "only" be voiced by a particular person (Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime being one of the most notable examples), QC:TAS would have a clean slate to work with.  This could save a lot on production costs not having to use "big name" actors, as well as actors too old to play the role despite their being very appropriate to character.


III. What channel?  What time slot?  What rating?

Considering the adult-themed nature of QC, it likely would have to be on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network, but that is not a hard requirement either.  Would QC be better on a different channel at a different time-slot?  Or perhaps a purely web-based series?


IV. Other factors?

Probably a lot of things, the internet is full of ideas (both good and bad).

It would be awfully silly and I'd probably be the only person on earth who'd watch it, but damn I'd enjoy it.

You are wrong about being the only person to watch it, and I've put the reason why in bold. And underline. That man's voice is a treasure.
