Cartoon Based on D20 Modern Setting

Posted by Zonk on from the i-want-my-dnd-tv dept.

Despite rumblings of a new Dungeons and Dragons cartoon, the first Wizards of the Coast setting that will see production as a television show is apparently Urban Arcana. UA is one of the canned settings offered by Wizards of the Coast in its d20 Modern roleplaying game. Despite this announcement, it's not going to be in front of your eyes for some time. From the article: "...the Sci-Fi Channel and Fox Television Studios are developing a television series based on the Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast D20 MODERN campaign suppliment URBAN ARCANA for the '06-'07 season."

    I mute the commercials with my +4 JVC remote of silence!

    Another game to tv cartoon? Should we expect a thinly veiled infomercial?

    Have you seen the Yu-Gi-Oh cartoon? All that it's missing is the price and a phone number to call.

    Still, I'd prefer that to the old He-Man cartoons, where at the end they'll hammer a "moral of the story" on you.

    I'm waiting for a show based off Monopoly.

    In fact, in 1990 there was a bad game show based on Monopoly.
