FOT and Angus is an animated, odd couple story created by New Zealand native Alex Dron, co-written by fellow animator Karl Willis, and stars Rhys Darby as the voice of FOT, an insecure, square-headed, late-teen or early twentysomething who desperately wants to fit in and makes up for his lack of self-esteem with a cocksure attitude (not terribly unlike Murray!). Angus is his mute oaf a tagalong sidekick who plays the silent straight man to FOT’s wild, whimsical, and not-so-bright guy.
YouTube commenter janvictor1 has this to say about the series: “This is actually good make more!!” I agree. Three of eight weekly episodes of FOT and Angus are currently live and online, with the possibility of a second season if the series does well.
Speaking of Mondo Media and seconds seasons, a sophomore season of the studio’s Dick Figures series recently debuted after the show’s first 10 videos racked up over a collective 15 million views. Trailer Trash is also currently getting a second life on YouTube through Mondo Media’s channel after an initial, exclusive run on Hulu.
