The Brak Show was an animated series consisting of 15-minute episodes on the Cartoon Network that aired during Adult Swim. The show was a run-off of the animated TV show, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, and featured recurring characters from that show and Cartoon Planet. Both programs used stock footage from the Hanna-Barbera cartoon Space Ghost and Dino Boy. The protagonist is Brak, voiced by Andy Merrill, who developed a quirky persona for the character. The Brak Show was preceded by two specials entitled Brak Presents The Brak Show Starring Brak. Despite the similarities in the titles, the two Brak Shows have very little in common. The latter show was a spoof of early sitcoms, while the former parodied the genre of variety shows. Both of the episodes aired in the US only once in 2000, although clips of the show could be viewed after the Space Ghost Coast to Coast time slot on occasion. In the UK only one of the two specials aired on Bravo on August 23, 2006 and then again on December 23, 2007. There are also clips from the shows on The Brak Show Volume 1 DVD and AdultSwim.com. The Brak Show series premiered unannounced in the early hours of December 21, 2000, along with the "Radio Free Sealab" episode of Sealab 2021. This "stealth" pilot (titled "Leave it to Brak") featured hand-drawn backgrounds and different opening titles. The show's second showing was on Adult Swim's debut on September 2, 2001. As with most of the first original Adult Swim shows it was produced by Willia
