PFFR (also known as PFFR Productions or, in their closing logo, as PFFFR) is an American art collective created in 1998 by Vernon Chatman, John Lee, Alyson Levy & Jim Tozzi (who departed in 2009).
Even if the collective is primarily known for its mature, surreal & often nightmarish TV programs (notably for Adult Swim), it’s only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to PFFR’ activities. Starting as a experimental rock and indie rock band, they would put out three albums and some EPs, as well as releasing music videos (that they would make themselves, of course). It’s by the latter half of the 2000s, with the creation (and success) of Wonder Showzen, that the collective would fully turn into a TV and film (sometimes) production company, which is still what they’re doing today.
If you watch any of their programs, expect a lot of Mind Screw, tons of Nightmare Fuel and, in general, an extremely trippy feeling coming from it.
Also, their Vanity Plate is truly a sight to behold
