The show is created by a bunch of criminals who manipulate their impressionable child audience (and the Mayor) into giving them money. It appeared in _the Powerpuff Girls_ episode “Neighbor Hood”.\n\nThis show is a parody on _Soupy Sales_ , a 1950s children’s TV show, infamous for an episode where they scammed children into taking money from their parents and sending it to the show's address. The creator of the show claimed that when they scammed the kids, it was only a joke, not meant to be taken seriously, but he didn’t account for how impressionable his young audience was. As such, he made a rough estimate of $60,000 off of the stunt, and got in lots of trouble with his superiors.\n\nThe font used for this show is **Action Is** , designed by Jeff Levine and digitized by his friend Brad O. Nelson at Brain Eaters Font Co.. Cartoon Network used the Action Is font since the late 1990s, and throughout most of the 2000s.\n\n\n\n\n_Cartoon Network.
