A playful, affectionate animated prequel that mines comedy from genre pastiche and childhood mischief, built on nostalgia for both 70s cartoons and classic cinema.

The misadventures of a young Jimmy McGill and his childhood friends in Chicago, Illinois. Told in the style of classic 70s-era cartoons, each episode is an ode to a specific movie genre — from spaghetti westerns and Buster Keaton to The Exorcist.
