Clone High is a unique animated comedy series that aired on MTV from 2002-2003. The show was created by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, both of whom went on to direct and write the hit film franchise "The Lego Movie." Clone High tells the story of a group of high school students who are all clones of historical figures from various time periods. The show tackles contemporary teenage issues, political satire, and raunchy humor in a way that is both irreverent and clever. The show's main character is Abe Lincoln, a kind-hearted but socially awkward clone of Abraham Lincoln. Abe is in love with his fellow clone, Cleopatra, a popular and attractive leader who is not always quite as sweet as she appears. The other clones in their school include Joan of Arc, who is a rebellious feminist activist, John F. Kennedy, who is a rich playboy, and Ghandi, who is a hyperactive and mischievous troublemaker. Together, the clones navigate high school, teenage crushes, and government conspiracies that threaten to destroy them all. Clone High combines a variety of genres and styles to create a show that is truly unique. The animation is done in a distinctive style that resembles classic 1960s Hanna-Barbera cartoons, but with a modern twist. The show's humor is also reminiscent of classic sitcoms like "Happy Days" and "Saved by the Bell," but with a more subversive edge. The show's creators have said that they were heavily inspired by the work of filmmaker Wes Anderson, which is apparent in the show's quirky characters and meticulous attention to detail. One of the most notable aspects of Clone High is its impressive voice cast. The show features several talented comedians who went on to become household names. Will Forte, who voices Abe, went on to star in "Saturday Night Live" and create the hit series "The Last Man on Earth." Michael McDonald, who voices Ghandi, is a writer and performer who has worked on shows like "MADtv" and "Brooklyn Nine-Nine." Other notable voice actors include Christa Miller ("Scrubs"), Donald Faison ("Clueless"), and Phil Lord himself. Despite its short run, Clone High gained a devoted cult following that still exists today. Fans of the show praise its sharp wit, irreverent humor, and unique style. The show's creators have said that they would love to bring it back someday, but so far there have been no concrete plans for a revival. In conclusion, Clone High is a brilliantly unique animated series that combines teenage comedy, political satire, and historic homage into a show that is both funny and intelligent. Its distinctive animation, memorable characters, and talented voice cast make it a must-see for any fan of animated comedy. Though it was cancelled after just one season, Clone High remains a cult classic that holds a special place in the hearts of its fans.
