My Pizza Tower: The Animated Series pitch to Adult Swim
If there are two games that deserve a TV series on Adult Swim it’s Team Fortress 2 and Pizza Tower. TF2 (sadly) screwed up their chance to get their own show on Adult Swim, while Pizza Tower has so much potential that I think it might be possible. But if a show were to be made, here are my thoughts on what I think it should look like…

Rating: First of all the show will be rated TV-14, because I feel like if the game were to be faithfully adapted for a show it would have to have that rating.

Episodes: So the series will be mostly episodic, but there will be some tie-in episodes. Although most episodes are stand-alone, an overarching story will form in time, and there will be character development later in the season or maybe in future seasons.

Animation: The art style, of course, will be 90s cartoon animation but will still have pixels.

Setting: The series will be set after the events of the first game, but to avoid spoilers I won’t go into detail on what that will look like. But if you have already beaten the game I think you have a good idea on the setting for the show.

Casting: I’m not gonna be that guy who casts all these big name actors. The only big name actor I would cast is Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as Pillar John or Gerome. Pepino’s voice actor will be Mark Hamill not because he’s well known but because he’s a voice acting legend and I think he could come up with a good voice for that crazed chef. Gustavo will be voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson, who voices Kamek in the new Mario movie and also voices Gantu in Lilo and Stitch, among other well known childhood cartoon characters. Tom Kenny, voice actor of SpongeBob, will play The Noise. I can’t think of any other voice actor who would fit certain roles in the Pizza Tower cast, but if y’all have any ideas or better suggestions of who should play who I would like to hear y’all’s opinions.

I know Tour De Pizza has said they are considering making a Pizza Tower cartoon, but nothing has been confirmed yet. But what are y’all’s thoughts?

I don't understand the optimism. It'll just be a mediocre netflix show like Cuphead.

no.
its better off without a show.
besides, how would it capture the games chaotic nature?

Honestly I don't see any potential in this ideal at all.
Tf2 was so promising because it already had shorts and characters that already have a well developed personality.
In comparison Pizza Tower doesn't even have a single line of dialogue to base anything off.

The Mario games have no dialogue either. Yet the new Mario Movie, although not perfect, was a faithful adaptation with dialogue that fit the characters. If Super Mario can do it, why is Pizza Tower any different?

Calling the Mario movie a faithful adaptation shows how low the bar is.
Though the Mario series has a few RPG games that fully flesh out the cast.
Pizza Tower just has a few comics with varying relevance to the game.

So you’re saying it’s impossible?

Its probably going to be annoyingly inconsistent to watch. I could imagine Peppino being a total punching bag even though in the game he is a total chad.

But what if the show made him a total chad?

I don’t believe in miracles. I’m being realistic. If they put the show into good hands, aka Adult Swim, we could get a banger of a show.

Adult Swim wouldn't get it right.

All of this pitching means nothing if you don't have drawing skills, since Adult Swim prefers animators/story-boarders for their animated shows instead of scriptwriters and obvious celebs.

Also you gotta be the kind of person to think outside the box when it comes to creativity, if Adult Swim shows don't already give that away.

Also, don't pitch it to a forum, and get the rights first before pitching to AS.
