Meghan Young — April 1, 2013 — Pop Culture
Heavy Metal and the ubiquitous feline franchise might not seem to go hand-in-hand, but the 'Kiss Hello Kitty' television show may be as surprising a hit as 'My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.' Set to air on the same network, The Hub, it follows four felines as they live the rockstar dream, creating anarchy in each scenario they're put into.
Produced by none-other-than Gene Simmons himself, the 'Kiss Hello Kitty' television show has a lot of potential in spite of how jarring the context may first seem. This is due in large part to Simmon's business savviness and his pension for making as many lucrative business deals as possible.
Although its debut date and target audience has yet to be announced, the 'Kiss Hello Kitty' television show already has its character designs down pat.
