The internet was abuzz last weekend with the death of ’80s child star Gary Coleman. Now, the first clip of Gary Coleman’s final project, an animated series called Stardumb, has been released. Good Morning America showed a very brief glimpse during an interview with Coleman’s widow on Monday but, thanks to inside connections at Stardumb’s production company, Film Junk was able to get an exclusive first look at the full teaser.

Coleman was in the studio just one week before his death recording his voice for Stardumb, an absurdist comedy about living life at the bottom of the Hollywood food chain. Check out the teaser and more info on the show after the jump.

Stardumb focuses on a low-rent talent agent named Light Bulb, who runs a sketchy strip-mall talent agency. Gary Coleman plays one of Light Bulb’s clients, G-nome, a short, African-American, D-list celebrity with a passion for geek culture. Not a far stretch a far stretch for Coleman.

The teaser is pretty random, but I laughed a few times and it seems to me like the show has the potential to be funny. The animation itself is in that rudimentary After Effects style that is so popular right now, used most notably in the Watchmen Motion Comics. A lot of people are growing tired of this arguably overused type of animation, but personally, I like the aesthetic. Still, producers say that this may not be the final look of the show. “We hadn’t originally planned to show anyone anything for about six months,” said one of the producers toady, “but, because of Gary’s death, we’ve been pushed to get something out immediately. ”

The show, originally entitled G-nome, was then centered around Coleman, who was cast in the titular role of a gangsta gnome. “Now,” say producers, “Gary has been moved to the side and the character of Light Bulb, his agent, has taken center stage.” Comedic actors from Andy Samberg to Jamie Kennedy are reportedly circling the role of Light Bulb.

Though 42-year-old Coleman hadn’t done much acting after Diff’rent Strokes, the show that made him a household name at the age of 10, both he and his agent saw the animated show as his potential comeback. “Gary loved the character dearly” says Sheila Erickson, Coleman’s agent at the time of his death, “and with the new structure, they have enough Gary audio to do at least two seasons of the show with his character.”

What do you think? Is this teaser enough to interest you in watching a new series starring Gary Coleman?
