Lost Media Files: Soul Quest Overdrive

This will be a two-parter entry today I’ll be covering the lost spinoff to one of Adult Swim’s highly rated and successful shows and tomorrow will be an entry I will reveal later so let’s get on with today’s entry about Soul Quest Overdrive.

I don’t need to even make an introduction to “Aqua Teen Hunger Force” do I? Misadventures with Master Shake, Frylock, Meatwad and Carl and both encountering villains along the way and other locations, but I would like to talk about four characters who had a minor introduction as they appeared in the season five finale “Bible Fruit” the characters were Bert a talking Bowling Pin voiced by David Cross, Mortimer a talking baseball glove voiced by H. Jon Benjamin, Tammy a talking basketball voiced by Kirsten Schaal and Mick a soccer ball. I want to name the actor here, but I don’t want to. You’ll have to look him up, he’s not worth the mention nor credit here but back to the main topic, they appeared as friends of Frylock as they are invited to join him to party though it ends by them being blown up as the house explodes after Master Shake dies by accidental beheading by Bert.

So after this initial episode, there was plans for a spinoff between these characters, which in 2010 more fuel to the fire would be stoked as during an interview with Collider.com Hunter Daniels interviewed to the creators of Aqua Teen about the spinoff rumor and acknowledged plus six episodes were made for it. One of their episodes was revealed called “Meals and Wheels” as in this episode as Bert runs over a man while he is on a wild car chase and was uploaded for a online contest hosted by Adult Swim, though this show lost out to another pilot from another show made by the Aqua Teen crew which was “Cheyanne Cinamon” the show would eventually air in 2011 in a block part of Adult Swim called “DVR Theatre” on May 4th as four of the six episodes would air on the block. As for the other two episodes remained unaired. Maybe being placed on a 4:00 AM block didn’t help matters for this show to be quietly cancelled. As for “Cheyanne Cinnamon” that never got picked up for a series either. But Aqua Teen will go down as one of the best original programming of Adult Swim.

Now you’re wondering if this was too short? Don’t worry I made up for that as for tomorrow the next entry for this two parter will be about a lost anime about one of Nintendo’s oldest anime series.
