Here are some drawings from “The Zoo”. Ages ago, Rebecca pitched The Zoo to Lamar and I as this absolute utopian, hippie society full of beautiful and healthy people with no concept of pain or sadness. So we went to town drawing as many different kinds of hot people as possible! 70s sci-fi, hippie communes, The Time Machine (1960), The Footlight Parade (1933), and the Centaurette sequence from Fantasia were all influences for this episode.
It was interesting and fun to depict humans who had somehow been appeased enough to coincide with the gem idea of perfect order and routine. I loved writing their eerie, almost understandable optimism, that ultimately gets destroyed in the hilarious ending scene by Lamar. Overall a really fun episode to work on, J10 and Y6 are easily some of my favorite characters in the show <3
