Program note: Snake 'N' Bacon on Adult Swim Sunday night

Fans of Michael Kupperman's hilariously surreal Tales Designed To Thrizzle comics should be aware that his beloved characters Snake 'N' Bacon (Sample dialogue: "Ssssss…;" "Put me on your sandwich!") will be on your basic-cable-enabled televisions this weekend. Quoth Kupperman:

"Snake ’N' Bacon the TV show pilot is going to be broadcast as part of Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim block of programming, on May 10th at 12:45 AM*. The cast includes Kristin Schaal, Dan Bakkedahl, Bill Hader, Peter Serafinowicz,  James Urbaniak, Brian Stack, and David Rakoff, in live-action and animated segments."

Kupperman fans should also take a moment to subscribe to the cartoonist's Twitter feed, if they haven't already. If you need convincing, here a handful of Kupperman tweets from the past 24 hours:

Students at Tokyo elementary school were delighted to find teacher had been replaced by robot Fonzie, who apologized for murdering teacher.

If those amuse you, consider checking out Snake 'N' Bacon. If they don't, so be it.

*(Technically, it's May 11th at 12:45 A.M…. right after Sunday becomes Monday. But you get the idea.)**

**(I received a message from Mr. Kupperman that the show does air on late Saturday/early Sunday. That's not what my TiVo shows, nor the TV Guide website, but you may want to watch on both nights just in case.)
