“A cautionary tale about ambition… and obsession.” Adult Swim has revealed their official trailer for a new animated series titled Women Wearing Shoulder Pads, the unique creation from Cinema Fantasma (of Frankelda’s Book of Spooks) and the mind of Ecuadorian writer Gonzalo Cordova, who worked on “Tuca & Bertie” as a writer before this. A wealthy Spanish woman from Ecuador navigates the complicated world of love, family, commercials, and cuyes. She travels to Ecuador to breed guinea pigs for profit, but her life is soon complicated by a mysterious stalker.
