Revision as of 01:47, 16 April 2006
Crash Nebula is one of Timmy Turner's favorite TV shows on The Fairly OddParents. Oddparents creator Butch Hartman had attempted to create Crash Nebula as a spin-off animated series. A thirty-minute pilot was created, which aired on July 2, 2004.
The pilot chronicled Sprig Speevak. He attended the Celestial Academy, a school where kids all over the universe learn to become space heroes. Sprig deals with the same problems all high school students go through (girls, bullies, popular kids, teachers, etc.) in sci-fi style. The show tells about Crash Nebula before he became a space hero.
Characters
- Sprig Speevak also known as Crash Nebula: Sprig was just a normal earthling until 1 d. he was sent to the "Space Celestial Academy". There, he must survive space school, earn the crash suit, & become: "Crash Nebula; Space Hero"!
- Dif: An alien that Sprig met in the Space Celestial Academy, he's just 1 big blob w/a big heart. He immediately became friends w/Sprig.
- Chuck: Another alien Sprig met in the Space Celestial Academy, Chuck's a turkey, but he's not just any turkey. Upset him, & he'll get his missiles out. So don't mess w/Chuck... especially about treating turkeys in a "harmful" way.
- Sprout Speevak: Sprig's annoying, bratty sister. She & Sprig don't get along very well... not very well @ all.
- Ving: The big, bad bully @ the Space Celestial Academy, he became Sprig's enemy right away. Ving wears a black cape & has pointed ears, making him look like a vampire. Ving's jealous of Sprig because he saved Princess Galaxandra & became her favorite student. Ving has the power to turn into a huge giant & do some massive damage.
- Felos: 1 of Ving's pals. He's a big blue cat w/black stripes & some huge claws. He can give you quite a scratch w/those claws, but he's easily distracted. So if you're Felos' enemy, be sure to have a ball of yarn handy.
- Rockwell: He, Felos, & Ving are the destructive trio. Rockwell's the strong 1, but his weakness is his brain & he has no ears.
- Ani: a girl from an anti-matter universe. @ 1st, she didn't like Sprig. After he saved her life, she begins to warm up to him. Ving claims that she's his soon-to-be girlfriend, but Ani wouldn't date him even if he were the last guy in the universe.
- Pam Dromeda: The toughest teacher in the Space Celestial Academy. She teaches Galactic Defense 101. Princess Galaxandra assigned her to tutor Sprig on the Nebula Suit 5,000.
- Princess Galaxandra: The Headmistress of the Space Celestial Academy. Sprig saved her life when she was being chased by little buglike androids (bugdroids). She shows her gratitude by having Sprig enroll in the Space Celestial Academy. She sees true greatness in Sprig.
Trivia
- An easter egg is shown is when Sprig is looking at his comic. Danny Phantom is shown on the back of the comic, and a caption says, "Coming Soon". The episode was made before the premiere of the series. However,the show appeared April 2004.
- In an episode of Danny Phantom, Danny is at a movie thearter when a ghost attacks. In the back ground is an arcade game that features Crash Nebula on the side.
- The part when Sprig pauses the film to talk is similar to What's with Andy? on Teletoon.
Delays & Cancelation
Only one episode of the animated television series was done, and segments of Timmy watching the show were animated and edited in to extend the length to 30-minutes. In these animated segments, Cosmo and Wanda try to guess what the episode is about, causing Timmy to miss portions of the episode. When they finally answer, it is the end of the episode, and Timmy had missed the whole thing.
After a long while of speculation, Butch Hartman confirmed on January 24, 2006 that the whole project was called off and that the series was not going to be made. He does, though, intend to "keep trying", and the concept may come back someday.
The concept was also written as a movie script and pitched to Paramount Pictures as a feature film. It would have been entitled Crash Nebula: The Movie. However, it was rejected, as there were too many similarities to Sky High, a movie already being put out by Disney.
