Odd Job Jack goes Creative Commons

Sean Lynch | July 27, 2006

Odd Job Jack, a cartoon sitcom on The Comedy Network (Canadian TV channel) produced by Smiley Guy Studios, has released all of the artwork for the TV series under the Creative Commons license. As far as I know, this is the only show currently in production to do so. Futurama next? *crosses fingers*

Master flash files and bitmaps of every piece of art used in this season of Odd Job Jack. Every character, prop, and background from every episode plus tutorials and other support material. All free to hack, use, remix under a share-friendly license.

The content package weighs in at around 800 MB per episode and will be released weekly alongside its weekly broadcast. You can download the torrent which is being hosted on Legal Torrents and The Pirate Bay (Canadians love Sweden!).
