#rexvizo

Supermansion is on the mind tonight after discovering some new fics on ao3 that got me thinking about the show again!

So just hoping I can catch someone’s attention to roleplay it with me! I’d be down to write blackgroans, robolex, debvizo, or rexvizo

I’ve got plenty of plots I haven’t gotten to write yet, some of which have been in my head for years. If you’re interested, dm me on discord and we can plot! My discord is kazikuns

Today is father's day and that made me remember them 😌 The 2-dad and dysfunctional family of Supermansion...I really loved the dynamic of Rex and Devizo in this chapter, it has a lot of wholesome potential 😔 (Not me saying that I ship them in a "partner" way 🙊)

The chapter is "Masters of Lex", the second one of the 3rd season 👀 It's one of my favorites of all the show 😭🙌🏼

Also, I want to say "Thanks" to the 3 people who reacted to my introduction post...I hope I can make and show more stuff about this series and my original stories (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤

Es el día del padre y recordé esta familia disfuncional de dos padres cuya dinámica en el capítulo AMÉ y me hubiera gustado mucho que hubieran aprovechado más esa trama. Me gusta mucho el vínculo de Rex y Devizo como "partners" y diría que los shippeo de esa manera 🙊

Me hubiera gustado hacer un dibujo de ellos 3 pero creo que saldrá algo tarde 🤣

And some closeups of the little doodles:

Hello dear anon!

Unfortunately, I don’t think we will be getting any information about Supermansion anytime soon. The creators have finished Lex’s arc, and as soon as they were ready to begin production on the next phase of the show, Covid hit and shut down all in-person work, including stopmotion studios. In the meantime, Stoopid Buddy Stoodios (the studio that produces Supermansion) focused more on their 3D and 2D animation departments, producing mostly Hulu Originals, since they could work on any other kind of animation via remote work. Stopmotion is the only form of animation that must be done in person, and while that creates a unique and oftentimes personal feel, it also shares many of the same limits that live action does. While the Animation industry as a whole is going through a hiring boom due to being one of the safest forms of entertainment to produce in the world’s current environment, stopmotion has unfortunately been left largely on pause.

While Stoopid Buddy Stoodios has posted some Supermansion-related things to their social medias, such as this gem:

They seem to be suspending production on that for the moment. There’s also the whole drama that came when they added the show to Adult Swim, then quietly removed it from Crackle a few months later, making it nigh impossible for new audiences to get into the show now.

They’re hiring on more Stopmotion animators now, so they might one day pick Supermansion back up, but for now it looks like Supermansion has been restricted to a firm “cult classic” status.

In the meantime, it looks like the team who used to work on Supermansion (and before that, Robot Chicken) is being transferred over to work on the Modok show for Disney, which seems to have a similar style of humor, animation, and storytelling than Supermansion, and would probably be more profitable for the studio after the financial hit they took from the pandemic. Perhaps the studio sees Modok as the spiritual successor to Supermansion, the same way Supermansion was the spiritual successor to Robot Chicken. Which is good for the stopmotion animators, but maybe not so much for the Supermansion fans.

Old habits die hard

Thought i’d make a new roleplay post!

Anyone up for that? I’m still down to do blackgroans, debvizo, rexvizo, or lexbot! As well as any crack ships or rarepairs you may have.

My discord is octogoblin#6863 so if you’re still in the supermansion fandom and wish to roleplay, friend me there, we can brainstorm plots! I have a few ideas myself but i’d love to hear yours!
