Bee & Puppycat

Bee and Puppycat is a cartoon web series made by animators from Frederator (known for work such as The Fairly Odd Parents, Adventure Time, My Life as a Teenage Robot, etc) through the Cartoon Hangover youtube channel. It's about a girl named Bee thats in her early 20's who's unemployed and when walking home one night is met with a cat/puppy creature (Puppycat) which she takes in. When the cat starts taking notice of her caretaker's financial struggles, she transports bee to another dimension to be given an job by Tempbot, a huge TV in space. The job involves fighting space creatures and through these space ventures we kind of learn about the backstory of Puppycat.

The show started off as two 5-min episodes and after being so well received by the audience, Cartoon Hangover started a Kickstarter in 2013 whose $600,00 goal for the production of a season was more than met with a total amount of $872,000, making it the most successful Kickstarter animation project at the time. They then released 6 10-min episodes in the summer of 2016.

In 2017 they announced that they were going to be writing new episodes which were expected to air in 2019 but have been pushed to sometime this year.
