Super Awesome!

No shit, from Rolling Stone:

When we first reported that John Oates of Hall & Oates was coming out with a cartoon about his superpowered moustache, we thought "No way does this ever get on television." Well, we might be wrong, as J-Stache is currently be shopped to stations and it sounds incredible. The premise, according to the two-minute trailer, is that Oates plays a family man who is lured back to the rock star life by his moustache. His moustache also happens to be voiced by comedian Dave Attell. "In a cartoon setting, the mustache has its own personality," Oates tells Billboard. Wait, it gets weirder. In the storyboarded pilot episode, Oates' moustache seeks to open up a new wing of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame dedicated only to rockers with moustaches (Congratulations, Brandon Flowers!). However, David Crosby warns Oates that a pack of moustache bearers, led by a murderous Tom Selleck, are trying to snuff out other moustache bearers. We change our previous prediction: This show will be Adult Swimming in no time.
