Early work

Adam Reed and his partner Matt Thompson started out at Cartoon Network doing various odd jobs, until they came up with their own show called High Noon Toons in the mid-90s. High Noon Toons was a 3-hour programming block of cartoons hosted by cowboy hand puppets Haas and Lil' Jo (a Bonanza pun). While working on this show, Thompson and Reed were usually heavily intoxicated and the two eventually got reprimanded for lighting one of the prop sets on fire.^[3] Internet personality Dan Avidan claims meeting Reed at a party, where intoxicated he punched Avidan in the crotch in his drunken stupor.
