CLICK & CLACK'S AS THE WRENCH TURNS | Preview | PBS

http://www.pbs.org/wrenchturns Start your engines! PBS is bringing Tom and Ray Magliozzi, of "Car Talk," to TV with the new series CLICK & CLACK'S AS THE WRENCH TURNS. The animated sitcom, based on the hit NPR radio show, premieres July 9, 2008, 8:00-9:00 p.m. ET (check local listings).

This animated sitcom takes off from the hit NPR show "Car Talk" and follows the on- and off-air escapades of Click and Clack, the Tappet brothers (alter-egos of "Car Talk's" Tom and Ray Magliozzi), as they try to fix cars, fend off disgruntled customers and seek out increasingly creative ways to goof off. The episodes take place primarily at Car Talk Plaza, a fictional building that houses their radio studio and their famed garage in Harvard Square in the fair city of Cambridge, Massachusetts.

In animated form, the best performance by " Click and Clack" is a brief cameo in the Disney movie, Pixar cars.

Eh, I love Car Talk, but I can only expect this to be a flop. It's just way too much of a departure from the format that made them famous. I'll definitely give it a shot, but I doubt this show will be on for long.

i hope good writing goes into this sitcom. they're my favorite radio personalities and have been since 1989

This does not augur well, though it confirms the wisdom of their long time resistance to doing television.

Move over, Simpsons and Family Guy!

PBS has a new animated sitcom written for the same audience!
