Trick Moon (2020 TV Short)
10/10
Please pull a 12 forever & Pinky Malinky
15 February 2021
So ever since OK K.O ended I was skeptical that there was ever going to be a cartoon that came close to achieving the same level of likeability and greatness that it had. And then this pilot was posted to CN's YouTube channel and it achieved the exact same feeling, tone, humor and legit everything OK K.O had and I as well as many others loved it and it seemed like with CN putting a focus on HBO Max it would be a perfect fit for the new Streaming service, avoiding the traps K.O had fallen in with cable T.V scheduling and advertisement. And then the news dropped in mid October of that year that restructures of Warner Media's animation departments that interfered with the development of Trick Moon as a series (the other pilots released at the time as well). The Trick Moon fandom actually got it trending the night it the creator announced the news of it, according to the What's happening tab we got over 40K tweets regarding it. There is still a dedicated fanbase for Trick Moon and in recent years some CN pilot have been green lighted by other networks and studios those being Pinky Malinky by Nickelodeon and Twelve forever by Netflix and seeing how Trick Moon's view count towers over 12 forevers view count when it was picked up by Netflix then there's a chance that Trick Moon can have a future.
