Welcome to the debut episode of Plush World TV! Network, where your host Darnell kicks things off with a dynamic conversation alongside special guest Mr. Thompson! In this episode, they dive into the origins of animation, tracing it all the way back to 1908 with Émile Cohl’s early experiments, through the rise of rotoscoping, and into the golden age of cartoons featuring legends like Popeye, Betty Boop, Tom & Jerry, and Mickey Mouse.

From there, they break down the seismic shift brought on by Pixar's Toy Story, discuss the edgier tone of DreamWorks (Antz, Shrek), and explore how anime emerged from Japan to become a global force, with studios like Studio Ghibli shaping hearts and screens worldwide. Whether you're an animation nerd or just along for the ride, this episode is a nostalgic, educational, and fun trip through animation’s past and present. And don’t worry—this is only Part One.
