As part of its 25th anniversary celebrations, boundary-pushing, award-winning animation studio Titmouse — known for Big Mouth, Metalocalypse, Star Trek: Lower Decks, The Legend of Vox Machina, The Midnight Gospel, Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-Head and countless other fan-favorite shows — today unveiled Churp, a first-of-its-kind subscription club that delivers curated merch and exclusive cartoons directly to fans.
Announced during Titmouse’s SXSW anniversary panel, Churp is described as more than just a subscription box — ‘a portal into a world of exclusive animation and collectible merchandise.’
“I love to wear cartoons on my body and also wear them inside my brain. Churp is a way to get both at the same time,” says Chris Prynoski, Founder & President of Titmouse, “It’s like Sanrio for stoners.”
What’s in the Box!?
Blending a subscription box and fan club, Churp is where cult fandom, collectibles and groundbreaking animation collide. Each month, subscribers receive a mystery shipment packed with bespoke apparel, collectible items and paraphernalia featuring iconic and original cartoon characters designed by Titmouse artists. Tucked inside each box is a secret code that unlocks access to a private website, where hand-crafted cartoons — created exclusively for Churp — await. These shows and shorts won’t be available anywhere else.
More than a fan club, Churp serves as an IP incubator and creative playground, where iconic properties and fresh ideas converge, allowing fan engagement to shape future productions. It introduces new, boundary-pushing content while spotlighting cult favorites. Churp isn’t just about celebrating the characters you already love; it’s about discovering what’s next.
At launch, the platform will debut brand-new, creator-driven cartoons, including:
Bruddies — A bloodbath action-comedy about two best friends.
Created by Ben Falcone (Tammy, God’s Favorite Idiot), Chris Henchy (The Other Guys, Step Brothers) and Steve Mallory (Thunder Force, Superintelligence), and produced by Melissa McCarthy (The Little Mermaid, Bridesmaids), featuring an all-star voice cast including Melissa McCarthy, Brooke Shields (Suddenly Susan, Mother of the Bride), Elizabeth Banks (The Hunger Games, Skincare), Joel McHale (Community, Animal Control), Octavia Spencer (Hidden Figures, Truth Be Told) and George Takei (Star Trek, Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai).
The Mitch Owl Show — A bright-eyed Hollywood hopeful learns the horror of working directly for an A-list celebrity.
Created by Tommy Blacha (Metalocalypse, Da Ali G Show, Late Night with Conan O’Brien, WWE).
A Million Dollar Idea — The story of the world’s biggest entrepreneur, who happens to live in his car.
Created by former Vox and Slate Magazine producer and Emmy Award-winning writer Sam L. Kim (The Colbert Report).
How Can It Be a Do? — A pitch-perfect parody of early 2000s industrial cable network documentary series.
Mark Brooks, a longtime Titmouse artist and director, will serve as Churp’s President and creative lead. He sums up the vision: “My lifelong experience in underground bands and cartoons has led to the following philosophy for Churp: if it’s too fucked up for anyone else, then we’re definitely making it.”
Churp, the studio asserts, embraces an intentionally raw, analog-inspired production style, favoring quality and creativity over quantity. Exclusive content drops only once a month, ensuring each release maintains a high standard of quality and collectability. In addition, Titmouse plans to collaborate with additional talent and brands that reflect the studio’s signature absurdist tone, building a network of creators and partners who share its offbeat sensibility.
Churp is set to drop later this year. Fans eager to be the first in line can sign up for notifications at www.churp.tv.
