Keep talking about it, keep being kind, keep being grateful for the wonderful show that this has been and will be hailed as for years to come.

The petition is here, and remember- even if we can’t get Disney to give us the third season this show deserves yet, demonstrating how much this show means to all of us and how much we disagree with their decision to cut it short only increases the chance that the future could hold something different. This cartoon has created wonderful memories for all of those who watched it, and deserves all the praise in the world for coming this far! Whatever happens, the world of animation has been forever improved by the existence of this show!

Disney, if you see this, remember what you are famous and beloved for- shows, films, and characters that speak to us and that show us the real magic that can happen if we cherish and encourage the best parts of ourselves- and then consider what message you send every time you prematurely end a show that upholds those principles.

Signed it! Hope you will, too.

COUNTRY CLUB GREENLIGHT BAYBEE!

It’s official! My brother @chrishoughtonart and I have created an original animated series over at Disney TV Animation!

We can’t wait to get started! Don’t forget to set your DVR’s to record COUNTRY CLUB, on Disney XD!  …in 2018. See ya then!

From the press release:

Country Club centers on Cricket Green, a mischievous and optimistic country boy who moves to the big city with his family. Cricket’s curiosity and enthusiasm leads his wildly out of place family on epic journeys and into the hearts of his new neighbors. Director Rob Renzetti (Gravity Falls) serves as executive producer and the Houghton brothers serve as co-executive producers.

‘Animation is strongly resonating with the Disney XD audience, and we are dedicated to expanding our roster of world-class creators including Aaron, Chris and Shane,’ said Marc Buhaj, senior vice president of programming and general manager of Disney XD. ‘Our audience will be treated to engaging, original comedic storytelling through the unique visions of each of our creators.’”

Goodbyes are not forever.                                                                                   Goodbyes are not the end. They simply mean

“I will miss you, until we meet again” :”))

And I’ll miss them even more.
