Turbo Fast is an American animated television series based on the 2013 animated film Turbo . Produced by DreamWorks Animation Television and animated by Titmouse, it was released exclusively on Netflix in the United States and in the 40 countries where Netflix offers its services at the time, [5] but it became available worldwide via Netflix over time. It is the first Netflix original series for children, and the first DreamWorks Animation series produced for Netflix. [5]

Contents

The first five episodes of the first 26-episode season were released on December 24, 2013, [6] with subsequent batches of five to six episodes following around holidays throughout 2014. [6] [7] Each episode consists of two 11-minutes segments, except for few double-length episodes. [8] Season 2 was released on Netflix on July 31, 2015. [9] The third and final season was released on Netflix on February 5, 2016. [10] [11]

Set five months after the events of the film, [12] the series follows Turbo and his crew to Starlight City, [13] where they master new stunts and compete with villains. [5] It is being animation directed by Mike Roush, [14] casting and voice directed by Andrea Romano, [7] art directed by Antonio Canobbio, [15] produced by Ben Kalina, Shannon Barrett Prynoski and Jennifer Ray, [4] and executive produced by Chris Prynoski and Jack Thomas. [4] [16] Beside Ken Jeong and Michael Patrick Bell, who reprise their roles of Kim-Ly and White Shadow from the film, the series features an all-new cast. It consists of Reid Scott as Turbo, John Eric Bentley as Whiplash, Grey DeLisle-Griffin as Burn, Phil LaMarr as Smoove Move, Amir Talai as Skidmark and Tito, and Eric Bauza as Chet and Guy Gagné.

In April 2023, the series was removed from the streaming service along with The Mr. Peabody & Sherman Show . [17] [18]

Premise

Five months after the events of Turbo (2013), Tito builds a city for all the snails along with Turbo, additionally building a race track for the snails to race. Turbo continues his racing adventures with the help of his brother Chet, and his friends Whiplash, Burn, Skidmark, White Shadow, and Smoove Move. Together they decide to call themselves the Fast Action Stunt Team, or F.A.S.T.

Episodes

Season 1 (2013–2014)

The series premiered on December 24, 2013, when the first five episodes of the first season were released. [16] Following batches of five episodes were released on April 4, 2014, [22] June 27, 2014, [23] September 12, 2014, [24] and December 1, 2014. [25]

Five-episode release is a departure from previous Netflix release strategy, where an entire season of a series was released at once. Netflix explained the change of the strategy: "Production on animation is on a different timetable, so we chose to make the episodes that are ready now available for viewers as they were ready." [26] However, they went back to the original formula of a full-season release for the remaining two seasons.

Production

Turbo Fast is the first project coming out of the five-year deal between DreamWorks Animation and Netflix, which includes 300 hours of original programming or over a thousand episodes a year. [7] [13] For this task, DreamWorks Animation opened a new television production unit, called DreamWorks Animation Television. [13]

Initially, the project started as a standalone special based on the Turbo film. Being impressed with racing visuals which Titmouse, Inc. created for the Disney XD series Motorcity , DreamWorks Animation contracted the studio to make the special flash-animated. [7] Soon after the Titmouse's founder Chris Prynoski signed on as the director, DreamWorks decided to turn the special into a series. [7] Prynoski directed the first few episodes, and then took over as the series executive producer. [7]

Production on the project began in the summer of 2012, a year before the film's release, when it was still undecided if the project would be a special or a series. [15] With the film still having numerous storyboard panels instead of finished animation, Titmouse had to develop their own style: "We were inspired by the movie, but we weren't held to match the movie," said Prynoski. [7] Titmouse's director Antoni Canobbio developed a look that felt new and cool, to suit the project's racing theme. [15]

Beside Flash, which is the main program for animating the series, many additional tools have been used, including Maya, Photoshop and After Effects. [13] To overcome the difficulty of animating intricately detailed snail racing shells, the studio generated 3D models of the shells in Maya, so they could rotate them to any position they wanted. [13] Each time it was put in a new position, it had to be cleaned up by hand to make it look like a 2D drawing. Prepared shell was then put into a library, waiting for next animator to use it when needed. [13]

In addition to Titmouse's studios in Los Angeles and Vancouver, [15] a "sizable piece" of the production is taking place at a couple of studios in South Korea, [42] in order to stay on schedule. [13] This marks the first time for DreamWorks Animation to outsource to the country. [42] On average, it takes a crew of about 80 people about six to eight months to take each episode from premise to delivery. [15]

Unlike previous DreamWorks Animation series, the Netflix deal allowed DreamWorks to maintain creative control. Prynoski said: "Typically, if you are working on a show like this, you might get two sets of notes: one from DreamWorks and one from the network. But we don't get notes from Netflix, which is cool. It allows us to move faster, and we can make the shows, hopefully, the way we want them." [7]

Beside Ken Jeong and Michael Patrick Bell, who reprise their roles of Kim Ly and White Shadow, the cast features all new members. One of the reasons for this was the desire to have the actors working together. "The thing is that these actors are really busy, and we want to get talent in the same room at the same time to get that chemistry. And that's a lot easier to do with professional voice actors," said DreamWorks Animation head of television Margie Cohn. [43] The cast was selected by the Titmouse's casting and voice director Andrea Romano, who chose people Titmouse already knew and had worked with. [7]

Reid Scott, who replaced Ryan Reynolds as the voice of Turbo, knew Prynoski from 2000 or 2001, when they worked together on a Flash Frame pilot for AMC. [44] After that, they lost contact, but they met again ten years later, when Scott successfully auditioned for Disney XD's Motorcity , which Prynoski created and directed. [44] They enjoyed working together, and when Motorcity got canceled, Prynoski offered him the role in recently contracted Turbo series. [44] Scott's initial approach to the role tried to capture Reynold's "inflection, his intonation and the character's attitude. [44] And then slowly it took on a life of its own. The Turbo we have now is inspired by that, but he's very much his own guy." [44] According to Scott, the same happened to all other characters, which "slowly morphed into different versions." [44]
