The Objects (franchise)

The Objects are an ensemble cast of object characters known for an absurdist, surreal, slapstick, burlesque, and self-referential style of variety-sketch comedy. Created by Stephen D. Wynn, Robert J. Aronson and Cameron Longree in 1971, they are the namesakes of the Wilson Pictures-owned media franchise that encompasses television, film, music, and other media associated with the characters.
The Objects originated in the short-form television series Steve and Friends, which aired from 1971 and 1972. Following appearances on late night talk shows and in advertising during the 1970s, the Objects began appearing on Dream Island (1976–present), and attained celebrity status and international recognition through The Object Show (1970–present), which received four Primetime Emmy Award wins and twenty-one nominations during its five-year run.
During the 1970s and 1980s, the Objects diversified into theatrical films, including
20th Century Studios and Wilson Pictures acquired the Objects in February 2017, allowing the characters to gain broader public exposure than in previous years.
In their six-decade career, the Objects have been regarded as a staple of the entertainment industry and popular culture in the United States and English-speaking area generally, being recognized by various cultural institutions and organizations, including the American Film Institute, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Library of Congress, and the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
