There was a recent one about a kid who's father was (I pinky swear I am not making this up) a cartoon action here based on He Man.

Ah, yes. Son of Zorn. Read an animation article on it. Animation producer said it was NOT like He Man because his company put much more work into the animation. I think he missed the point; even with fuller animation it's still clear the show runner wanted a character like He Man.

This may be it:

Anybody remember the show Deadly games? 

A videogame designer created a game using himself as the basis of the hero and his (now-ex) girlfriend as the damsel in distress along with a bunch of ordinary people in like made into supervillain "Bosses" in the game. 

And then somehow they come to life and get loose in the real world so he has to get his ex-girlfriend to help him stop them all.  The man badguy was Christopher Llyod in a white Colonel Sanders looking suit.

Mercifully I either missed this or forgot it.

A comedy about a spy ring headed by prisoners in a Nazi POW camp is out there, even if it ran for a long time. Still funny tho.

Since we're listing pilots too:

QuoteMcGurk: A Dog's Life was a 1979 NBC television series pilot and the last television concept created by Norman Lear to become a pilot. The show starred Barney Martin, Beej Johnson, Charles Martin Smith and Sherry Lynn. Only one half-hour pilot episode was made of this offbeat costume comedy. It was shown only once on ABC on June 15, 1979 at 8:00 PM EST.[1] The show featured the actors portraying the roles of the family dogs and wearing dog costumes. Lear's intention was to do an All in the Family style show using the dog's point of view to discuss controversial social and racial biases.

I liked Deadly Games for the cheesey action sci-fi show it was.

Son of Zorn Ugggghhhhhh....file this under "Interesting Idea, Lousy End Product". 
I love movies/tv shows that combine live action and cell style animation.  Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Twilight of the Cockroaches  Even Space Jam and Cool World  too me aren't completely devoid of merit. 

So I wanted to see how this would go.  And it turned out to be a bad Family Guy rip-off.  Yuck.
At least, that's what Gary Busey told me...

There was someting of a mini trend of shows starring apes and monkeys in the late 70s/early 80s. BJ AND THE BEAR was about the only one that was remotely successful.

I actually watched a few episodes of the terrible MR. SMITH show, which was something about a wise-ass talking orangutan in Washington. I guess NBC had high hopes for it, since it got its own TV GUIDE cover story right before it flopped out of existence.




I also saw a few episode of the rotten ALL IN THE FAMILY spin-off called GLORIA. This one went way beyond beating a dead horse.

You know what, Joey? Life sucks and so did your show.
If you're an Andy Milligan fan there's no hope for you.

I think. Mel Brooks was involved.  Also it was a tv lite comedy version of stalag 17.
