Adult Swim Orders Animated ‘Apollo Gauntlet’ and ‘Hot Streets’

Adult Swim has ordered two action-packed new animated series that will premiere later this year, with “Apollo Gauntlet” debuting this summer, followed by “Hot Streets” in the fall.

“Apollo Gauntlet,” from MONDO’s animation studio, Six Point Harness, and Mosaic, is a quarter-hour adventure comedy created by Myles Langolis. The logline: On Earth, Paul Cassidy is just another cop, but when the evil Dr. Benign transports him to another world, he becomes a new kind of hero. With the help of a magical suit and a set of talking gauntlets, he’s able to fight crime exactly the way he wants…and he’ll do it as Apollo Gauntlet!

“Hot Streets” from Stoopid Buddy Stoodios, follows FBI Agent Mark Branski, his partner, his niece, and her dog, as they investigate supernatural phenomena. The also quarter-hour animated science fiction adventure series is created by Brian Wysol (“Rick and Morty,” “Robot Chicken”).
