All Hail Stan Lee
 You know all the fan boys have wanted to do this for years, but it took Stan the Man to bring it to life. Stripperella is in good company with Spidey and the rest of the Marvel characters that Stan created, but I don't think we get so see any of them take it all off!
By day this new superhero is Erotica Jones. By night she's Agent 69, Stripperella. And if you didn't already know, Pamela Anderson does the voice of our favorite spy in a mini skirt. Do you think she dresses like that just to do the voice stuff, or does she show up in sweatpants and a tshirt like a normal person? And how long before Kid Rock makes a guest appearance?
Cartoons For Fucking Adults
These are toons are for adults only! I can't wait until the DVDs come out so we can get rid of the censored boobies. I love that this was totally made for adults, a real departure for prime time TV. Of course, it's on cable (on the new All Men Network that would like to call itself SPIKE, but can't yet) and it's on at night, but you know some idiots will put their kids in front of anything on TV. I'm surprised some PTA group hasn't raised a stink about this yet. (It must be past their bed times or something)
The animation is pretty good, and it will be better when it's not censored. The plots aren't too shabby either. Villains like Pushy Galore and Cheepo (he tries to kill her by filling a giant jar with pennies) are great combinations of classic villains who you'll recognize right away. That's part of what makes the show fun but not too campy. Sure there's the exploding boobies, hot cartoon chicks and stripping, but you really can't go wrong with any of those. Now I'm just waiting for Agent 69 to get her own centerfold in Playboy.
So far three episodes have aired, but you won't have missed anything if you start watching now. The plots are pretty much one shot episodes and there's not too much carry-over into the next episode. You can catch Stripperella on Thursdays at 11:00 PM, right before another cartoon, Gary the Rat. Afterwards stick around for Ren and Stimpy.
