When news landed a few weeks ago that Fox had optioned an animated series based on the quirky genius of ‘Napoleon Dynamite,’ it wasn’t much of a surprise.
First of all, Fox has found the most success in the animation department and if they gave one more show to Seth MacFarlane, they’d have to just give him control of the entire network. It’s cheaper that way.
Most importantly, ‘Napoleon Dynamite’ is a comedy that screams to be animated. The larger-than-life characters of the original 2004 comedy seemed like a cartoon to begin with, so it’s a natural transition for the uncomfortable, quirky comedy about the most awkward high school teenager since my pimply-faced days as a high school dork. (Seriously, I had a face that could have caused the government to legally prohibit me from swimming in the Gulf for fear of a widespread oil spill.)
But it’s not the only comedy that would work in animation. Here are five other classic comedies that would look good after an ink-and-paint makeover.
