Betty Boop (2013 TV series)

Max Fleischer's Betty Boop is an Emmy award-winning American series of adult animated shorts created by Paramount Television Animation. It features Max Fleischer's classic characters Betty Boop, Bimbo the Dog, and Koko the Clown in contemporary settings such as Paris and New York. The series has the slapstick feel of the classic Betty Boop shorts, as well as filling the cartoons with its surrealism, dark humor, adult psychological elements, and sexuality. Max Fleischer's environments were grittier and urbane, often set in squalid surroundings—a reflection of the Depression as well as German Expressionism which he embraced.

Construction processes and machinery were found in some stories, which mirrored Fleischer's view of mechanics as the art form of the 20th Century.

It is being executive produced and directed by Emmy Award-winning artist Paul Rudish, known for his work on Cartoon Network series such as Dexter's Laboratory and The Powerpuff Girls (1998). It was announced at Paramount's upfront meeting on March 12, 2013 and premiered on June 28 on Fox.

The TV series is rated TV-14, with some episodes rated TV-PG.
