After the success of the Arcade game, Atom Chopper, TM approached Makon and made a deal to commission an Atom Chomper series. It was pitched to SBC and was picked up for 2 seasons. By the 2nd season, that season had to have high ratings in hopes for a possible 3rd, but TM struggled with Atom Chopper ratings, and then it got cancelled after 2 seasons. Then it later got taken off air in 1986. First Episode: “Welcome to Chomp Land!” - September 8th, 1984. Last Episode: “The Great Disgrace” - December 14th, 1985.
