The year was 1997, and American networks were racing to release their first animated primetime series just for adults! SOUTH PARK may be the one we all remember now, but Ralph Bakshi's forgotten HBO series SPICY CITY - a sexy cyberpunk noir anthology - hit the airwaves first!
M. Lopes Da Silva, the author of INFINITY MATHING AT THE SHORE & OTHER DISRUPTIONS, joins film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold to explore this ambitious series, its animation influences, and exciting visions of the future. Buy it here! And follow M. Lopes Da Silva on BlueSky!
But mostly they just want to know, was it CANCELED TOO SOON?
