Cartoon Network Studio's newest original comedy, Uncle Grandpa, is rapidly becoming Cartoon Network's next big hit. For the month of September, Uncle Grandpa was the #1 program on Mondays vs. all TV with boys 2-11, 6-11, & 9-14. This Monday, October 14 at 8/7c during the episode "Uncle Grandpa for a Day," everyone's favorite mustachioed goodwill ambassador shows his musical chops in a special short, "Uncle Grandpa Sings the Classics."

This short harkens back to the good old days when celebrities took to the airwaves to hock their albums with infomercials full of little musical snippets and a mile of scrolling song titles. But this time, in true Uncle Grandpa-style, the songs are lighthearted and absurd, covering topics such as his love for mustard, digging holes and balloons. Showing his ability to be a crossover artist and covering songs of every genre, Uncle Grandpa pays homage to everyone from MC Hammer to GG Allin. Experience the magic with the full short, available for download here.

In other Uncle Grandpa news, his wondrous facial hair has been recognized by the American Mustache Institute! Uncle Grandpa has been nominated for the Robert Goulet Memorial Mustached American of the Year Award. Show your love by voting for Uncle Grandpa on their online ballot!
