'Angry Birds' Television Show Signs A-List Voice Talent (VIDEO)


First Posted: 01/25/11 09:43 AM ET Updated: 05/25/11 07:25 PM ET

Ok, we admit it, we've spent a shameful amount of time playing 'Angry Birds.' Of course, the fact that it's the iPhone's most popular game makes it pretty clear that we're not alone. Nevertheless, there's something about it that still feels like our own dirty little secret, so any public mention of the birds fills us with joy.

Last night, not only did Jimmy Kimmel mention 'Angry Birds,' but he also gave us a little bit of the 'Inception' treatment by suggesting this idea for the 'Angry Birds' TV show. We will heretofore be obsessed until it becomes a reality, or until we jump out of a window so we can wake up from this sweet, sweet dream.

This idea has the same life-expectancy as the Pac-Man TV show, and for the same reasons.

I've seen television shows made from ideas with much less content, i.e., Carebears, Smurfs and Real Housewives of just about anywhere.

Wow really? just because it's a popular game doesn't mean it's a good idea to turn it into a TV show.

Anyone else think it's time for Angry Birds to come out with a new update?

I wish I had never started this game.

Plants and Zombies is a far better game. Try "World of Goo". Very cool game.

The world'd be a much happier place if all the angry folks just play angry birds instead.

i spent lots of free time playing this addictive game. I beat every level and then went back and got 3 stars on all of the levels and found all of the hidden eggs. Now i am trying to figure out how to uninstall it and start all over again...addicted? much!

OMG. That's what I did. To get other bonuses, you have to get higher scores than just having 3 stars.

i got the game and didn't open it for a year, then opened it and now every night I'm addicted, I think i have a partial injury from the stress I put on my elbow and wrists and I'm obssessed with getting 3 stars for every game.

So yeah. Thats my story. Thanks for readin. lol
