MTV Adds 3 Mobile Series

MTV is launching three new mobile series as part of a wider multi-platform slate of short-form programming, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The mobile programs, “Anton & Crapbag,” “Damien’s Other Show” and “HoodFab,” will debut on various MTV-branded platforms, the article says.

“Anton & Crapbag,” featuring two claymation characters who try and fail at stupid stunts, will first air on MTV2 and become available on the MTV channel on Verizon Wireless’ V CAST TV in May. “HoodFab,” a hip-hop trivia game show, and “Damien’s Other Show,” a short sketch comedy series starring “TRL” host Damien Fahey, are both available via MTV Mobile through most major wireless operators.
