EHS Grad Creates Animated Short Set in Everett

Everett High School grad Tom McDonald moved to Brooklyn to become a comedian and an animator, and now his short, Tommy Wants His Mommy, has been selected in the 2018 New York Television Festival.

Set in Everett, Tommy Wants His Mommy is a 15 minute animated comedy in the style of Dr. Katz or Home Movies. The main character, Tommy, moves back in with his mother to help out in the family business — life coaching. 

For fans of quirky, slice-of-life humor, Tommy Wants His Mommy is right up your alley. Full disclosure: This is an adult cartoon, so be aware there are some (actually, a lot) of mature themes.

Give it a watch below and let us know what you think.

In the style of Dr. Katz & Life and Times of Tim, Tommy Wants His Mommy is an absurdly banal short following a 28-year-old slacker that moves back into his Mom's house as she begins mentoring him in the family business, life coaching.
