Knuckleheads is the English-language version of Têtes à claques. The Têtes à claques web site launched in 2006, with an English-language launch on August 14, 2008. Les Grandes Gueules s’animent! aired on [adult swim] Canada as Two Nuts and a Richard starting October 16, 2015, so this is the second show of Québécois origin to air on [adult swim] Canada during the 2015-16 season.
Gloryosky is surprised to see a specialty channel translate French-language shows for English-language audiences. Whether Knuckleheads catches on or not, to see four adult-oriented shows on a Teletoon-administered channel – in first run during one season – is a step up from Teletoon at Night debuting one or two new shows a year. Gloryosky hopes this trend continues.
The below video went live on December 15, 2015. This is likely old news for the Têtes à claques faithful. It might have made more sense to launch Knuckleheads when Têtes à claques was hot around 2007-08, but at least it’s out now.
