Suckman College

Suckman College is a comedy show that has aired on Smart Network since 2006. The show was produced by Cameron Kaobawiyashi. It was based on a comedy sketch called Cockroach College on a Japanese parody show called Tokyo Cuts that he watched in Japan as a young adult. New episodes have been added as part of the Smart Network’s Fall lineup.

Plot
The show is about 16-year old Jeremy Spot, who has to try and get through Suckman College by breaking as many rules as he can, without getting into trouble. His best friend is Batcher Mitchell, who is taller and older than Jeremy, and he thinks his ideas are stupid, calling them “Childish”, “Dumb” and “Irresponsible”. A running gag used throughout the series is when Jeremy gets an idea, he is standing under a lightbulb.

The Point of Suckman College
According to a 2008 interview with Cameron Kaobawiyashi, he said that Suckman College wasn’t actually a college. It was a place where kids restart High School beacause they didn’t recieve their diploma.

Trivia

 * The American Smart Network website doesn’t have a Suckman College page, as it was taken down in 2009 after someone edited the page and added links to random websites. However, the Japanese Smart Network website does.
 * The show had been in the making since late 2004, which is why the first 3 episodes say “©2004 Smart Network Animation Studios Japan”.
 * Characters were removed in Season 11 because the show was running out of money.
 * In the Island of Sally, Suckman College airs between 9pm and 3am on Jetix. The show has been airing in the Island of Sally since October 2007.
 * In Piramca, some episodes have different titles.
 * In the Island of Sally, Japan, the UK, and Piramca, the school building is different from the one that the USA airs. This was because viewers did not like the American school design.
