Howdy there, Scream Freaks! Our season four finale feels like it was just yesterday, but the premier of season five is fast approachin’! With the explosive departure of Full Moon Empire and those other guys we’re not supposed to name, the time has come for our show to get back to basics and deal with all original problems from the Crosslands. Namely the mysterious biker gang Billy runs into durin’ the final moments of our last episode.
Who are they? How did Billy survive a nuclear explosion? What’s the show’s theme gonna be for 2018? Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego?
We think it’s pretty obvious to y’all the bikers are the horsemen of the apocalypse. Shocker, we know. It’ll take the Screaming Soup! gang a few episodes to figure that out, but kudos to you for knowin’ your doomsday prophecies. If you ever read Billy’s bio, then you also know he’s a runaway from hell avoidin’ some heavy responsibilities he’s destined for. All that doom and gloom finally catches up with our favorite critter with the horsemen’s arrival and sets the web’s #1 animated horror host on a rescue mission to hell and back with the fate of the Crosslands hangin’ in the balance. Excited yet?
Season five will be packed with new characters, inside-out tours of the Crosslands, and reviews of horror flicks that loosely follow an end of the world theme. There’s more horror host crossovers in the works for these episodes, and we’re even havin’ a one of a kind contest y’all are sure to love once we reveal it January ’18! Season four was epic, but this will be even bigger with us returnin’ to adventures that are 100% Screaming Soup!, further explorin’ our own characters and the mythos of their dimension.
On a side note, we’re still plannin’ on producin’ some video reviews of the comics for Toxic Avenger and Puppet Master, as well as the Toxic Crusaders cartoon (hopefully before Christmas). We’re in some new territory now regardin’ the time tables for animatin’ future episodes given our ambitions for larger stories, and tryin’ to not let the secondary vids hold those back from regular releases. We’re also continuin’ to slowly build our alternative channels for the show on Twitch, Vidme, and Veoh. We’re talkin’ with Veoh and Twitch to find out why they won’t let certain episodes be uploaded (emails from Twitch say we “MAY have violated service terms” but won’t say how), and Vidme seems to have a 30 minute limit per video we are still researchin’ a way around. Fangs crossed all that will get worked out before season five premiers next year.
