Pizza Quest (2013 TV series)

Pizza Quest is an American animated sitcom produced by CN XD Studios and CollegeHumor for Cartoon Network XD. The series is primarily intended to be viewed by college attendees "as a way to relieve them of their stress after a long day", and was originally planned as an animated series for adults prior to the merger of Cartoon Network XD Nighttime into the channel's regular schedule. The series aired on Cartoon Network XD for one season from 2013 to 2014. So far, it is the only long-form Cartoon Network XD/TeleAmerica original series that took its first and only season to conclude its plotline.
==Production==
In 2012, Cartoon Network XD and CollegeHumor signed a deal allowing for the televised broadcast of Dinosaur Office, alongside the production of an animated sitcom based on a CollegeHumor property. Pizza Quest, a one-off CollegeHumor short, was selected to become a television series due to executives at Cartoon Network XD finding the short "extremely funny".
Due to the conditions of the contract, CollegeHumor would hold exclusive streaming rights for four years after the first episode's premiere; the exclusivity agreement expired at the end of 2017, though CollegeHumor continues to host episodes on their website.
==Episodes==
TBA.
==Broadcast==
Outside the United States, Teletoon began airing the series in Canada in January 2014 and aired two episodes a week.
In the United States, CN XD Networks had exclusive broadcast rights to the series until they were bought over by Curiousgorge66 Studios in late 2015. On broadcast television, the series was aired (with edits to comply with broadcast standards and practices) on The CW as a part of MorningCW, a former joint-venture between Curiousgorge66 Studios, CN XD Networks (whose share in the joint-venture was later absorbed into Curiousgorge66 Studios upon its buyout), and The CW Network, LLC. The series is currently rerun in the United States on Aura Retro, the first time the series aired on U.S. television since it aired on Vortexx Network in 2016. Alongside other Cartoon Network XD series, the series aired a few episodes for an April Fool's Day joke on Nickelodeon Family on April 1st, albeit as a part of AuraNightfall.
For a brief time in 2014, due to Cartoon Network XD sub-licensing on-demand rights to its original series and first-run acquisitions to Nickelodeon at the time, Pizza Quest was available on Nick on Demand.
In Wales, the series aired on Disney XD. Following its Welsh run, the series has not been aired in the rest of the UK/Ireland, nor has it been rerun on Welsh TV.
