RIP Guy Moon, the composer for several series, including Fairly OddParents (and the rest of Butch Hartman's work), 2 Stupid Dogs, Cow and Chicken, Ned's Declassified, Big Time Rush, Back in the Barnyard, and many more.

He was 63 years old.
Image of Guy Moon from his Facebook Screencap of a post on Guy Moon's Facebook: We are overcome with grief to announce the passing of our beloved patriarch, Guy Moon. He was killed on Thursday morning in a traffic collision. We feel singularly blessed to have been able to call him dad and husband. As we stand together at the base of what seems to be an insurmountable grief, we are emboldened to grieve him with honor and courage with the tools that he equipped us with in his beautiful life. He has left an unmistakable legacy, and will be profoundly missed by us, his family, and countless others whose lives he impacted. We are tentatively planning to celebrate his life on his birthday, February 7th, in the Los Angeles area, and again sometime after in his hometown in Wisconsin. We will make details available as we plan. Together we remain, The Moon Family

Trade magazine ad of Soup to Nuts, a 1930 American pre-Code comedy film written by cartoonist, sculptor, author, and inventor Rube Goldberg and directed by Benjamin Stoloff. The image is a vintage trade-magazine advertisement for the 1930 comedy film Soup to Nuts. The design is bold and graphic, featuring the film’s title prominently in large lettering. The layout has a classic early-Hollywood promotional style, with simple illustrative elements and clean typography. It highlights the film’s creative pedigree—written by famed cartoonist and inventor Rube Goldberg and directed by Benjamin Stoloff https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soup_to_Nuts#/media/File:SoupToNuts_title.jpg

R.I.P. Tony Benedict, storyboard artist and writer on THE FLINTSTONES, THE JETSONS, MAGILLA GORILLA, and a bunch of the old Hanna-Barbera shows. He also came up with the Jetsons' dog Astro. Great guy and a great talent.
