The Waterman Movie

On March 16, 2007 a blog was posted on Waterman Studios' official site, stating that a movie of the popular series Waterman would be made. The Release date is set for either late 2007 or early 2008. The movie will also feature the voice of comedic actor Leslie Nielsen.

Thunder Quest

Thunder Quest was first announced on the official Waterman blog on February 3 2006. Thunder Quest is an all new animated comedy series, produced and created by Waterman Studios. Once the pilot episode has been finished, Waterman Studios plans on pitching the show to various television networks, starting with Nickelodeon. The show is still in early development stages, and the pilot has been speculated to be finished by the end of 2007.

Plot

The potential series is AbOUT a team of adventurers, lead by controversial theorist Professor Jeremy Thunderdust, who travel to the deepest reaches of the sea in hopes to prove “The Pac-Man Effect”. The theory indicates that if you travel far enough down, you will eventually arrive above where you left. This would mean that if someone were to travel to the deepest reaches of the sea, they would eventually crossover into outer space.

The series takes place on an abandoned station, stuck on the horizon of space and sea. Professor Thunderdust and his team, now countless miles from the surface in both directions, are on a desperate search to find their way back home. With all of the mayhem that occurs on the horizon, they begin to realize that their journey back to the surface is going to be a lot harder than they thought.

Waterman Studios

Because of the success of Waterman and Puppets In The Park Waterman Studios has become very popular. Waterman Studios uses music by Reel Big Fish for the series Waterman and has recently got Leslie Nielsen, comedic legend, to voice one of the characters in The Waterman Movie. Waterman Studios has also produced several other non-animated videos, such as Celebrity Interviews and Who Wants To Be A Pictionary Millionare. The Waterman Studios website has also produced a successful spin-off forum that is no longer hosted by Waterman.
