Meet The Characters of Season 1
Callum Stepfhund
Teen Panhandler
A soft, kind hearted, easy going fellow with a meek disposition is plagued by a crippling phobia of blood. A people pleaser who can’t say no, all he wants is everyone’s approval. Yet he’s conflicted by both wanting to please people and being disgusted by them.
Ian Allred
Local Homeless Man
Ian Allred is a gaiety carefree drunk, despite being someone whose seen alot. Ian takes each day as it comes, and takes whatever drug comes his way as well – he finds it better not to think too much. It’s difficult to break his friendly disposition, however he has little tolerance for loud noise or violence.
Lou Parish
Republican US President
Outspoken and authoritarian, this far right wing leader pushes boundaries. Parish believes in old school values, minimal governmental influence, and the constitution. He’s not afraid to make waves amongst other political powers.
Nivy’Gyna
Hairdresser / money launderer
Nivy’Gnya is a bright, genuine, middle aged woman who is always cold. She has an affable disposition, and her capacity for understanding is limitless. Being a caretaker is her true nature. On the downlow she’s a quiet instigator who needs to be needed.
Chestibor Iakovlovich
Hitman
A strong-willed, self-disciplined, straightforward man who sees everything in black and white. Out of all of them, he is by far the most cocky, outspoken, rude, impudent one. Extremely insensitive and politically incorrect.
Moxy Fisher
Bratty 9 Year Old
A careless, loud, stubborn brat – she just wants what she wants, and everyone else can go screw. This is how we meet Moxy at age 9, wandering the crater in a tattered yellow sundress; mud up to her ankles.
Phodi Williams
Street-wise germaphobe
Phodi is a sassy, fearless, and zealous go-getter. He’s also characterized by a total intolerance for germs and all things ‘nasty!’ He’s not fond of animals or children, as he finds them dirty, and can be a bit OCD.
Aphelia
Wild Animal
Aphelia is a stoic, no-nonsense girl with fierce independence. Her only soft spot is reserved for Callum Stepfhund, who she follows around like a lost puppy.
Dealing with themes of divide between classes, dysfunctional behavior, and politics; Tнэ Гalse Шая aims to serve as a community for it’s viewers to turn to for comfort, escape, and occasionally a laugh; despite the uncanny dark and realistic nature of the show.
It’s a series about change.
It is a character study that revolves around a dysfunctional family where none of the characters are actually blood related. A group of wayward (and oftentimes, questionable) souls who each deal with life’s obstacles in their own ways. It’s about why we must keep going no matter what – because you never know what’s just around the corner.
You’re going to watch the cast go through endless ups and downs, transitions and devistations…but life goes on, doesn’t it? That’s why Tнэ Гalse Шая was intended to be a TV (or web) series, not a book or film. The show goes on. We want the music, the voices, the angles, the tension- to mirror the world we live in.
Trademarks of the Show Will Be:
- Juxta positioning two people with the same problem who deal with it in entirley different ways
- Introducing a character in a way that makes you hate them, then revealing more until you are on their side
- Suddenly revealing the elaborate life behind what was once a background character
Hey, it’s just a cartoon, right?
Aging Is Scary. We Don’t Want Our Audience to Have to Go Through It Alone!
Tune into Tне Гalse Шая to watch your favorite characters grow old, fat, and sick in real time with you! Scared because of health issues arising? Don’t worry, the cast is too, just like you. See how they deal with it? They try to brush it off and pretend they aren’t feeling it, just like you! We want these characters to be more than just relatable. We want them to grow with you. Here’s to hoping Tне Гalse Шая can go on for many more than 8 planned seasons. If the series makes it long enough for characters to pass away of natural causes, this provides an opportunity to deal with themes of aging and mourning which may be relatable to its long time fans.
The Mixed-Media Art Style
One of the quirks of this series is all the different animation styles. Why? Because the characters of the show often cOME from different places in time and space via wormholes created by weapons of war. These people (and animals, insects, anything mobile) are referred to as “crossovers”. Crossovers are typically referred to as worthless welfare trash, because – since they just lost everything – crossovers tend to end up on government assistance. Get funky with it- we’ll include stick figures, claymation, real actors, CGI, and puppets – or even people in green body socks moving stuffed animals on a green screen. Get creative, this show is a mind fuck.
