Production

At their 2011 upfront, Clarence was announced along with various other series.[2] The show was created by Page, a former storyboard artist for Adventure Time and revisionist for Secret Mountain Fort Awesome.[3] He is the fourth creator on the network who graduated from the California Institute of the Arts,[4] and at age 24, he is also the youngest.[5] As part of their shorts development program in 2012, the show was developed at Cartoon Network Studios; four others, Steven Universe, Over the Garden Wall, We Bare Bears and Long Live the Royals also came from this initiative.[6]

Page, together with creative director Nelson Boles, conceived the show at CalArts. It was further considered when Page became hired at Cartoon Network Studios. A crew of two or three polished the pilot episode; after it had been picked up, a crew of 30 to 35 writers, storyboard artists, revisionists, colorists and designers were employed. Meanwhile, animation is outsourced to South Korea through the Saerom Animation.[7]: 20  Page explained that the hardest part of production was keeping pace, especially where once an episode is completed, one must start over. He called this "exciting", but "very challenging".[7]: 21 

According to writer Spencer Rothbell, the show was created with a naturalistic tone, similar to cartoons of the 1990s, combined with a more modern feeling. Given this naturalism, writers can reference works that have inspired for them or fit the genre of an episode. He ultimately felt that it was about "empowering kids and having fun".[8] Rothbell also avoids "pigeonholing" into one type of story, and that while some plots are mostly character-driven, others are "based on one idea that we think is really funny".[9] Inspiration also came from the shows Page watched as a child, which invoked more poignant and relatable situations. Despite this, elements of fantasy are allowed, and that conveying both incongruous to one another was one technique he particularly enjoyed. Boles noted that the art direction called for inconsistent character design to avoid having to fit model sheet with the universe perfectly—a result of what he dubs the Simpsons effect.[7]: 20  Attention is also paid to background characters in order to expand variety in its plot and universe.[7]: 20–21 

Crossover

Clarence, Jeff, Sumo, and Belson appeared in "The Grampies", the short accompanying the Uncle Grandpa episode "Pizza Eve", along with other Cartoon Network characters from currently running and ended cartoons. Belson had a speaking role in that short.[10]

In the Amazing World of Gumball episode "The Boredom", Clarence and Mary make an appearance, alongside with Uncle Grandpa and Regular Show characters.

Page's firing

In July 2014, it was reported that Skyler Page was fired from the show and Cartoon Network Studios due to mental health problems allegedly leading to cases of sexual harassment.[11][12][13] A Cartoon Network spokesperson confirmed that the series will continue despite his absence. Spencer Rothbell later became head of story and the voice of Clarence.

Showrunners

After Page was fired from the show, Nelson Boles served as series showrunner for the remainder of the first season. After the first season, Boles left the series. Stephen P. Neary, one of the storyboard artists for the show, became showrunner for the second season.[14]

Broadcast and reception

Clarence was originally previewed at the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con International.[15] Cartoon Network had commissioned twelve quarter-hour episodes, with the pilot episode airing after the Hall of Game Awards show on February 17, 2014.[6] The pilot was nominated for an "Outstanding Short-format Animated Program" at the 65th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards in 2013.[16][a] The first episode, broadcast April 14, 2014, was met with an estimated 2.3 million viewers, outperforming shows in its same demographic in the time slot by double and triple digit percentages. Meanwhile, preliminary data identified it as the most watched series premiere for the network that year.[17]

In Canada, Clarence premiered on Cartoon Network on April 14[18] and on Teletoon on September 4, but it was later moved exclusively to Cartoon Network.[19][20] The series premiered on October 6 on Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand[21][22] and on November 3 on Cartoon Network in the United Kingdom and Ireland.[23] In India, the series debuted on June 1, 2015 on Cartoon Network.[24]

In a three-star review, Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media alerted parents of "a similar brand of absurdity and crudeness" as Adventure Time—though less severe—but praised the cast as "oddly likable".[25] Nancy Basile of About.com applauded the dialogue for its lengthiness, and considered the relationships between the characters to be dynamic and genuine, with some comedy thrown in.[26] Whitney Matheson of USA Today found Clarence to blend optimism and surreal humor in "just the right amount", and encouraged children and parents alike to watch its premiere.[27] In Animation Magazine, Mercedes Milligan described it as "a breath of fresh suburban air" and a celebration of childhood.[7]: 20  Nivea Serrao of TV Guide contrasted the show with most fantasy animated series.[8] Brian Lowry of Variety called it "so quirky and idiosyncratic as to feel fresh", although it sometimes tread in "well-worn territory", but found the character designs unattractive.[28]

The show gained considerable press after featuring a gay couple in the episode "Neighborhood Grill", with coverage in various tabloid and entertainment news sites,[b] and in LGBT-oriented sites as well.[c] The scene involves two male characters greeting each other with kisses on the cheek while at a restaurant. Rothbell originally had the couple kiss on the lips after receiving flowers from the other, but this went unapproved by the network. He added that the scene was a "minor throwaway moment", albeit "better than nothing", and anticipated that "one day the main character can be gay and it won't be a big deal".[32] Joe Morgan of Gay Star News called the buildup to the scene "an old joke",[37] a notion shared by Dan Tracer of Queerty, although he praised their portrayal "just as normal people".[38]
