''Dan Vs.'' is an animated comedy series produced by Creator/FilmRoman and Creator/{{Starz}} that premiered on Creator/TheHub on January 1, 2011, and the first original animated show on that network not based on an existing property. It focuses on a ComedicSociopath named [[{{Jerkass}} Dan]], who has it ingrained in his mind that '''every''' negative thing that remotely happens in his life is the fault of some random unseen force, from the entire country of UsefulNotes/{{Canada}} to the WolfMan. His daily misadventures stem from his desire to provide swift retribution on whatever supposedly caused his problem, much to the chagrin of his best friend [[OnlySaneMan Chris]]. HilarityEnsues. The show was very surprisingly well-received and considered, alongside ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'', ''Series/FamilyGameNight'' and ''Series/TheHauntingHour'', to be one of The Hub's flagship shows.

''Dan Vs.'' is an animated comedy series produced by Creator/FilmRoman and Creator/{{Starz}} that premiered on Creator/TheHub on January 1, 2011, and the first original animated show on that network that's not based on an existing property. It focuses on a ComedicSociopath named [[{{Jerkass}} Dan]], who has it ingrained in his mind that every single negative thing that remotely happens in his life is the fault of some random unseen force, from UsefulNotes/NewMexico to the WolfMan. His daily misadventures stem from his desire to provide swift retribution on whatever supposedly caused his problem, much to the chagrin of his best friend [[OnlySaneMan Chris]]. HilarityEnsues. The show was very surprisingly well-received and considered, alongside ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'', ''Series/FamilyGameNight'' and ''Series/TheHauntingHour'', to be one of The Hub's flagship shows.

Perhaps the best way to describe the show comes from this Internet quote: "It's... like some inversion of ''Series/MyNameIsEarl''." Indeed, it features a lot of the same sort of humor and characterization as that show, only with more cartoonish absurdity and less adult humor (but still some, mainly in the form of BlackComedy).

On February 6, 2021, Christopher Pearson [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBN7nvJUkwU publically announced]] that there are plans for a revival aimed more towards adults. There's now a public campaign to garner fan interest in hopes that a streaming service will take notice and pick up the show.
