TV Notes: ‘Animation Domination’ hits Fox
Don’t miss
ANIMATION DOMINATION HIGH-DEF: Viewers will be treated to a sneak preview of two 15-minute programs airing under this edgy new late-night block, starting with “Axe Cop.” It’s the tale of an insomniac superhero (voiced by Nick Offerman) who gets just two minutes of sleep a night and eats only birthday cake. It’s followed by “High School USA!” in which Mandy Moore and Vincent Kartheiser supply the voices of perky students. 9:30 p.m. Sunday, Fox. (Animation High-Def officially premieres Saturday).
