British dub

## Rangeltoons

The **British dub** is an English redub for *Kyle and the Gang* distributed by Archiplex Entertainment in 2018.

The British dub originated as an attempt to bring the show to the UK. These episodes, which were recorded at Westland Studios were edited for content, and covered 13 episodes of the series.

## History

After *Kyle and the Gang* was initially dubbed in Latin American Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese for 4 episodes, work on localizing the series to the UK commenced in 2018. This time, Archiplex opened up its UK subsidiary Westland Studios in order to produce the dub. Westland dubbed an approximate 13 episodes.

It kept nearly the same voice cast as in the original American English version, with some exceptions. The soundtrack has been left unaltered as well. The dub's exclusive rights were secured, but to what extent is unknown.

Archiplex Entertainment (distributor of the series and its major financier at the time) closed down Westland Studios (the series' dubbing studio) during mid-2018, effectively ending this dub of *Kyle and the Gang*. After 13 episodes, *Rangeltoons's* UK English dub abruptly ended production, with the last dubbed episode "The Pervert Catcher" being produced.

## Home video

The British dub of *Kyle and the Gang* has not, and will never be, released to home video. It's worth noting that Kenzie Backlin Productions does not own the rights to this dub, as it is considered unnecessary. In addition, the American English original version is released in the UK in place of the British dub.

## Censorship

* The British dub of *The Getaways* carries the transcripts from the US censored version, but replaced two instances of the word "shit" with:
	+ The words "little pests" in place of "piece of shits"
	+ The word "crap" in place of "shit"
* *The Phone* had a majority of changes made to the British dub. In the US censored version, a flashback scene showing Kyle, Eric and Liz do a dangerous toilet bombing stunt was removed, but was retained in this dub. Incidentally, the British dub makes a few references that fit with Britain's culture.
* The British dub of *St. Patty's* alters the ending entirely for reasons unknown.
