Blessard Animation Productions

Background
Blessard Animation Productions was a production company ran by Byron Blessard. It was established solely to produce the third season of The Halloween Gang after it lost its funding. Around the time it released its second production, Extreme Halloween Kids, the company and its founder quickly became infamous for attacking people who criticized the company's programs. In 2006 Blessard launched Young Entertainers, a talent program for kids with a YouTube channel and forum, and from there allegations of pedophilia surfaced, with some clients alleging Blessard groped them or filmed them doing suggestive poses, though at first this was deemed slanderous due to underlying circumstances. The company would produce animated shorts focusing on mental health, which also faced scrutiny from those who believed the allegations and those who considered the content to be of poor quality. Their next television production, Butt-Heads: The Series, was critically panned and reopened allegations as Blessard became relevant again at that point. Around the heyday of the #MeToo movement, more accusers came out against Blessard, and an investigation revealed he had connections to a pedophiliac group that circulated copies of child porn and other productions oriented toward pedophiliac interests; Blessard had also been revealed to be a former member of NAMBLA. Blessard was convicted in 2018, and copies of the company's productions were promptly confiscated.

Availability: First appeared on the infamous third season of The Halloween Gang. It also appeared on Extreme Halloween Kids and Butt-Heads: The Series. Please note that these are three of the few productions to make it onto television via syndication or on low power stations. As mentioned before, Blessard produced films that were circulated amongst friends and family depicting lurid content, meaning that there may be more productions that haven't been accounted for.
