Captain Underpants: The New Epic Show

Captain Underpants: The New Epic Show is a fan made animated superhero television series, based on the film, Captain Underpants. The series continues the lives of. George Beard and Harold Hutchins.
==Production==
Back in 1998, Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle have pitched an idea for an film to Nickelodeon based on Dav Pilkey's books series to Day, but Pilkey was not interested. 
But DreamWorks Animation announced on October 19, 2011 that they had acquired the rights to make a film based on the series. DreamWorks had been attempting to secure the rights since the series was first published in 1997, and after Pilkey seeing "the subtle way that morality and personal responsibility were handled" in How to Train Your Dragon and the Kung Fu Panda movies, he realized a film could "properly convey what [he] was trying to do with the books".
When The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants's proctiion ended, Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle have announced second show for the upcoming fan-made sequel that is more like the movie.
Using the sock puppet and stop motion scenes, the show uses the of live action scenes of the characters entering out of the show.
==Cancellation==
A seven season was planned, but plans for this season were scrapped after Captain Underpants 4: An Space Mission, so producing the seven season would have been too costly and Nickelodeon couldn't purchase the company to continue the production. Four scripts were finalized for this season, but two of them have yet to be revealed. Another reason was because the show had been doing well in syndication.
==The Holiday Movies==
In 2026, Paul Gagne announced the production of the two holiday movies, Captain Underpants Season Of Heart and A Captain Underpants Halloween.
==Spin-Off==
A spin-off series called "The Russ Company Show!" ran from October 2, 2029 to February 15, 2032 with only one season and 33 episodes. It focused on Russ Lamplugh saving the world from new enemies he faced.
