The Purple Man and Track Tom Show!

**The Purple Man and Track Tom Show!** was a brilliant TV show that was distributed and made by Channel 100 Studios, first premiering in June of 2014. The show follows the wacky adventures of titular heroes Purple Man and Track Tom, as they explore around their home Turbotown and embark on many adventures with the help of Inspector M. They make new discoveries, take down villains threatening to destroy the town and most importantly learn new and insightful things about eachother.

## Background

Though the origins of the show and motivations behind making it are as mysterious as the identities of the creators, the Purple Man and Track Tom Show was definitely among the most popular shows in the entire world, airing over 250 episodes that all averaged around 300-650 million viewers. This made it the most successful show on Channel 100 by a landslide and the most popular show worldwide, until an imitator show named *Turtle Man and DaPhantom* aired in 2019 and overtook their record. The creators of the show would do ANYTHING to keep it alive, such as making strange decisions to draw in new viewers or via introducing new characters.

The show was critically acclaimed for it’s comedy, action and good lessons that it managed to teach it’s viewers on top of all those other things. There was even plans for a movie and video game adaptation of it, until the show was later cancelled due to violent reasons.

The identities of the creators of the show remain a secret to this day.

## Synopsis

Purple Man and Track Tom are a duo of strange best friends who live in the suburbs of Turbotown, located deep within the desert. They always like to hang out together with their favourite spot being a huge ice cream parlour named the Milkshake Dragon, where they interacted with other goofy characters such as Sally String and Chris the Clip. Most frequently of all though was Inspector M, the town’s inspector who would always help them out if they need assistance in finding or solving things whilst they were out doing their daily escapades. Every day was a new adventure somewhere else such as the ancient Misty Mines or mythical Toppling Tower, but at the end of each one they always managed to learn an important life lesson that brought them even closer together. The evil Chomper sometimes showed up and tried to eat them if they bothered him, but never succeeded and always learnt the error of the ways by the end with or without Purple Man and Track Tom’s help. There was also the town sheriff Officer M. who they first met inside the Milkshake Dragon and would hang out with occasionally, though in the later seasons he randomly disappeared from the show.

## Cancellation

The show originally met it’s unfortunate end 9 years later in 2023 when the characters from their imitator show, Turtle Man, DaPhantom and Officer M. appeared to complain to Purple Man and Track Tom. This lead to a fight with them that resulted in their deaths when they called their arch-enemy The Devourer, who eat them up without really realising what they were doing. As a result, no new episodes could be made so the show was cancelled after a pretty solid run. Some weeks later though, Inspector M. had set up a plan to kill the imitator characters alongside their friends by inviting them to a murder mansion, but this later backfired and resulted in his own death.

Some months later though, the Devourer realised his mistake in eating the starring duo as he realised how much they annoyed his enemies. So he stole a powerful item named the Amulet of Souls from Officer M. and used it to bring Purple Man and Track Tom back to life so they could renew the show for a ninteenth season with new episodes. This outraged the imitators once again, so they marched over to Channel 100 Studios and later Turbotown where they managed to defeat the soul clones of them with the help of their friend Ellie. The popular show was cancelled for good after this, and likely won’t be returning again.
