Hello Kitty's going to be HUGE

Categories: Television

143758__kitty_lWell it’s about time: Thirty-two-year-old Hello Kitty, an international superstar who’s downright ancient by Hollywood standards, is finally getting her own show: Hello Kitty, Stamp Village, a 26-part series that will air in 15 countries, according to her overlord manufacturer Sanrio. "The plan is to target a world market. So the program will be created in an easy format to dub or narrate into foreign languages," said Sanrio spokesman Kazuo Tohmatsu said. Which should be easy, considering Hello Kitty has no mouth. (Shudder.)

Before Hello locks into any completed script, however, might we suggest she aim to show a little more range than usual? Perhaps her latest character could be part of a clone army, or better still, join a breakdancing troupe. That’d be mad addictive, don’tcha think?

    I’d be REALLY surprised if anyone gives a crap about this.

    Oh, there are people who do. They are the ones who are obsessed. FYI, Hello Kitty came from Japan, which is filled with people who are obsessed with anime and anything cute. That’s why Hello Kitty is still around today.
    I like anime, but I’m glad I’m not obsessed with it, especially with Hello Kitty.

    The Hello Kitty breakdance video is freak-eee. I can’t believe no one else has mentioned it.

    I think i had a seizure while watching the break-dancing video. aside from the constant “helloooo kitty” and the pictures of gerbils or whatever they were, the beat was actually kinda catchy.

  • Hello Kitty Fan

    That sounds so fantastic, I can’t wait to see it :)
