Even though the popular film NAPOLEON DYNAMITE was in theaters back in 2004, the fact that fans still remember the film fondly bodes well for FOX launching the animated version which premiered  this Sunday as part of the network's "Animation Domination" block of cartoons.

With original cast members returning to voice their characters in the series, the concept is not far removed from it's origins - 16-year old Napoleon Dynamite working his "sweet skills" along with his family and friends as they live life in rural Idaho. The show stars the voices of Heder, Efren Ramirez, Tina Majorino, Jon Gries, Diedrich Bader and Sandy Martin.
