Right Now Kapow is an American animated sketch comedy television series produced by Warner Bros. Animation for Disney XD. It is one of the few collaborations between Warner Bros. and Disney since Who Framed Roger Rabbit.[1] The series premiered on September 19, 2016, and ended on May 31, 2017.[2] The series was created by Justin Becker and Marly Halpern-Graser, who previously worked on the Cartoon Network series Mad. Becker also worked on Adult Swim's Infomercials, and Halpern-Graser also worked on Cartoon Network's DC Nation. On May 31, 2017, Disney XD discontinued the series after one season.[3]
The series was announced back in 2014 under the title Airline Earth, but the creators felt that the title wouldn't work, so they went with Right Now Kapow.
