Season Two Begins with “Cutbacks”

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 1:38 pm

Season Two of Transylvania Television begins with one of the most horrifying words going around, “Cutbacks.” Whispered in discreet circles around the water cooler, uttered in breathless cabals astride the copier, no single phrase is capable of striking fear in the soul the way this one does. And someone is not coming back to work in Season Two of Transylvania Television. Find out who is among the doomed in the season opener of TVTV, Part One of Three! Now stop straddling that copier and watch!

fbook1Why drag your ass to this web site every time you want to find out what’s going on at TVTV? Well, there’s plenty of reasons, including the free box of steaks, but maybe becoming a fan of Transylvania Television on the Facebook place will save you five minutes a day. Then, you can get a part time job and buy your own damn steaks and quit mooching off these poor guys. Oh, and somebody please friend Dwayne Frankenstein, he’s sad and lonely, tormented by ads for singles and boner juice.

TVTVOnline: Your Source For the Old Vids! For now…

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 10:33 am


“I love all the hype about Season Two of TVTV. But where did you put Season One?” I was being shaken awake by Ned, one of our self-proclaimed super fans. Somehow he had broken into my sleeping chamber. I assured him that TVTVS1 was not lost to the ether, but in fact remained online at our YouTube SuperStore TVTVOnline.

This seemed to placate him for a moment, until a dark cloud came over his face. “But what of the high resolution, beautiful clips I have grown so accustomed to? What can I do to satisfy my higher-def jollies?” Well, surely the arrival of a comprehensive, complete, and utterly comedic compilation of all the S1 material onto a DVD would satisfy such base urges. I bided my time, knowing that if I were to promise such a DVD I would never hear the end of it.

But, dear readers, know that such a disc is being designed right now, and will feature rare clips, things unavailable elsewhere, and audio commentary by the series creators. Until then, Ned will be at our youTube site. Comment away, oh-Neddy. And tell your friends.

Season Two Lensing Now

Filed under: New Seasons, Season Two — doctorscary @ 9:07 pm

Season Two of Transylvania TV is being shot at secret locations throughout the Twin Cities, and features a host of new situations, characters, and surprises. We just wrapped two major scenes of the mid-season episode “Compliance,” which pits the Vampire Le Shoc against a feisty heavy metal demon! Thanks go out to Brian Bradshaw of Bradshaw Design for helping us out with studio space, and to Rob Withoff and Alan Lloyd for supplying so much of their own gear and sweat. We also welcome to the TVTV family Gabriel R. Wimmer, who donated muscle and sinew in the construction of sets and lighting, not to mention getting his paws under a puppet — the usual initiation test!

Here’s a partial list of what to look forward to in Season Two of TVTV:

  • “Cutbacks.” In this four parter, Le Shoc looks at ways to cut costs around the castle. Somebody’s not returning to work in season two: find out who it is in this cliffhanger season opener!
  • Dwayne answers viewer question letters in a series of web shorts
  • Furry starts web-logging, and reports on the state of things behind the scenes at the castle. Look for rude references to vegetables and furtive glances at a certain monster’s “third tentacle.”
  • Furry Ackermonster goes “Radio Goo Goo” in an attempt to win tickets to the Transylvanian Rollergirls bout. From the writing team of the Brothers Gilman.
  • The classic show Twilight Zone gets FD’ed

Season Two launches July 4th, 2009. Catch episodes here, on our Facebook page, or via Apple’s iTunes!

Filed under: Contests — doctorscary @ 9:11 pm

lyip_artTransylvania Television takes fan participation to the next logical conclusion in this year’s absurd fan contest. Heard of those contests where you can win a guest spot on a TV show or film? Well, they usually throw you in with the extras and let you fall out of focus in the background, but not at TVTV! Here, we do it to your handmade puppet entry instead! That’s right, you build a puppet, send us images or a video reply on YouTube to the promo shown below, and we Steal Your Intellectual Property! It’s that easy. 

Well, not that easy, as the rules and regulations will attest. Right click here to download the entire list of demands that we make on you, our fans, before you can play in our fuzzy playground. The benefits are many: sickeningly sweet peer adulation, the intense personal satisfaction of seeing your work on the small screen, and heaps of critical abuse from really sad people on the internet. Contest ends October 1, 2009, so enter today!

MYSTERY PUPPET SPOTTED! NAKED!

Filed under: New Seasons, Season Two — admin @ 9:37 pm

comingsoonA dark pink figure was spotted last night, running on the TVTV castle ramparts with apparently no pants on. Viewers are advised to lock their back doors, in both senses of the word, because there’s a new character in town. As Boromir once said in that Lord of the Rings movie, “What is this new devilry?” Time will tell, so stay tuned to Transylvania Television throughout 2009 to find out. He will make his debut as part of the eagerly awaited Season Two, which starts in July. Want to participate in the fun? Hit us up at mail@transylvania-tv.com to tell us what you want to see, and help make TVTV the comedy destination for 2009!
