Dino Stamatopoulos, Scott Adsit And Chris McKay From The Emmy Award-Winning Series To Participate In Panel

Congers, NY (June 17, 2008) – The creators of the hilariously offensive Adult Swim series “Moral Orel” will make their Wizard World debut at the Chicago convention. During their appearance on Saturday, June 28th, Dino Stamatopoulos, Scott Adsit and Chris McKay will participate in a special panel with everything from a question and answer session and clips from upcoming episodes to insights on how the dirtiest stop-motion animation series ever is made.

A stylistic send-up of the morally sound 1960s series “Davey and Goliath,” “Moral Orel” stars 11-year-old Orel Puppington in his quest to live his life by a strict a moral code. The misadventures that happen after Orel acts out the church sermons he hears have filled two seasons worth of episodes for Cartoon Network’s outrageously popular Adult Swim programming block. The series begins its third season on August 17, 2008.

Aside from creating and working on “Moral Orel,” guests Dino Stamatopoulos, Scott Adsit and Chris McKay all have some of the funniest shows in television on their resumes. Dino Stamatopoulos, creator of “Moral Orel,” has written for “Mr. Show” and “Late Night With Conan O’Brien.” Frequent “Moral Orel” writer and director and regular voice actor Scott Adsit can be seen playing Pete Hornberger on NBC’s Emmy Award-winning series “30 Rock.” Chris McKay is no stranger to Adult Swim after having served as a producer, director and editor on both “Moral Orel” and “Robot Chicken.”

Wizard World, the largest family-friendly comics and pop culture convention in the central US, returns to Chicago June 26-29 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center. For more information and to purchase advance tickets, please visit www.wizardworld.com.
