About this title

Storyline

Hotbox is a show about a glowing hot metal box from outer space that crashes to earth and is retrieved by a group of scientists. As the scientists examine the box in their top secret facilities, viewers are zoomed in to the different weird symbols that line the outside of the strange alien artifact. What's going on inside the box is the real show! A wonderfully absurd world of sketches, cartoons, commercial parodies, puppets, fake movie trailers like: Dinner in Space, commercials starring Robocop, Flaunty Flour Festival, Festival of Whips, Salty's Gym, Cthulu and Jim, and a lawyer named Hot Garbage.
