You know that frustrating game where you have to shoot birds into bricks and try to knock them down? Well, Angry Birds is about to become an animated TV show, the New York Post reported.

Hold on to your feathers because it’s coming soon.

“We’re going to roll out a weekly animation series later this year of shortform content,” an executive at Rovio, the company that makes the addicting game, said over the weekend.

Nick Dorra, Rovio’s head of animation, said that there will be 52 episodes lasting a mere two in a half to three minutes each.

“We’re looking at building a video app for that, and we’re also looking at partnerships and so on,” Dorra said, “We want to be on all screens.

He added that “Angry Birds” is not just about sling-shotting birds into the air – oh? – but, instead, Rovio want’s to make it more about the characters.

We guess it’s time to give up on level seventy-five and start watching this new TV series this fall.

“We believe this brilliant series can and should continue, but we cannot produce future seasons under its current financial model,” Fox said.

“We are hopeful that we can reach an agreement with the voice cast that allows ‘The Simpsons’ to go on entertaining audiences with original episodes for many years to come,” the statement added.
