Surprised no one spoke about this yet, Disney has recruited some new animation directors to create pilots for them- Aaron Springer, Jesse Le Doux and Jhonen Vasquez [1]. JV's new show is called "Very Important House".

Very Important House Creative Talent: Jhonen Vasquez, creator of cult favorite Invader Zim and character designer Jenny Goldberg (Rick and Morty, Bravest Warriors) are co-creators. Synopsis: 11-year-old Frolie moves into the Very Important House and suddenly finds herself in the role of caretaker of the universe.

here's hoping for a green light!

Hey, a pilot by Ryan Quincy, the creator of sadly canceled [1] ? That might be interesting.

I kinda suspect the Internet's reaction to this show when it comes out might be the same as what happened when Joe Murray created Camp Lazlo a decade after Rockos Modern Life...

But as for me, I wish him luck.

I can just tell by the concept this show is really going to be short lived.Just the idea of Vasquez making another children's cartoon just doesn't sound like it will last long.Still excited,though.

Chances are he's had a change of heart? Yeah, I doubt it too. Still excited and hope it gets the green light as well. Also hope they don't fill it with "Teen Fandom" crap and turn it into a vehicle for "Girl meets world" stars or something.

Tweet I found from January of this year: https://twitter.com/Chevistian1/status/1618783200402358272

> Very Important House pilot, what Johnen has showed at cons and Vine was the animation test reel from Titmouse

> The actual pilot is a 11-min animatic however i've heard from reliable people that the show might be back on track thanks to Ayo Davis.

I hope this is true. A mutual of mine saw the fully animated portion screened at a studio event back in 2016 or so and “it was pretty cute”.

I… kinda hope it is! It would be good to have another big, potentially story driven show out of DTVA again! And from the Invader Zim guy, no less!

[up] Wait, did Jhonen say it'd be story driven? Kinda thought it'd be the other kind. Maybe Disney heard "multiverse" and expected a huge lore fest, but Jhonen was like "nah, it's just goofing."

Regardless, I'd like to see Ayo Davis bring it back somehow, but woof, January was ages ago and long lulls drive me mad. tongue

Make that potentially story driven. I dunno just speculating. Sorry. I made a correction.

The pilot for Very Important House (as well as many other Disney pilots) leaked on YouTube.

Only the "next time" segment is fully animated.

Something tells me this would be subject to the same executive meddling Invader Zim did if it became a series, especially since it's on Disney which has MORE of a "keep things squeaky clean" reputation than Nick. Look at how much the creators of Gravity Falls and Amphibia had to go through to keep dark stuff in their shows.
