Painless Tom

Painless Tom is an American adult animated sitcom originally for MTV and moved to Comedy Central in 2011. It first premiered on TBA 2008 with the episode "First Day", which led to a series of 22 minute episodes. The series was created by Jacob Shirley and Cole Wilson and follows a high schooler (and starting with the revival, collage student) named Tom who constantly gets himself into dangerous situations, however, he is unable to feel any pain.

Shirey had began working on Painless Tom in 2003, teaming up with Cole Wilson. To voice the character of Tom, Shirey approached himself. Shirey pitched a pilot to NBC in November 2004, before being rejected. Shirey and Wilson continued to work on the show until 2006.

The series was originally set to premiere in 2007 with a new pilot they showed to MTV, but the episode was declined to be used by MTV (until it was finally preserved on the season 1 DVD in 2010). The producers of the show then decided to "go ahead" and air another first episode, "First Day" on August TBA, 2008.

It was announced in 2013 that the show would end, with Painless Tom: The End to End all Ends being the series finale. In 2018, it was announced that a revival of the series was in the works with Shirley and Wilson returning. The revival premiered in 2020 on Comedy Central, following Painless Tom: To Boldly Scramble, which was released in 2019. The show can be streamed on Hulu, and, soon to be, Paramount+.
