About

Symitri started as a group of friends who liked making weird little projects together—music videos, oddball shorts, anything that felt a little strange or offbeat. Most of us bonded over the same stuff: cult movies, late-night cable, and the kind of weird trash you’d stumble across flipping channels at 2am.

Growing up in the early 90s was a strange time for television. R-rated movies like Police Academy, Robocop, and even The Toxic Avenger somehow turned into Saturday morning cartoons. But for years we all had this vague memory of something that felt like the reverse — a live‑action kids show that felt like it should have been a rated R movie. For years we assumed it was just a fever dream brought on by lack of sleep and maybe the occasional questionable substance.

Then one night at a party we met Wally. What started as a strange conversation about old broadcasts turned into a much bigger story. Wally began sharing the surviving fragments from the show’s short run — pay stubs, internal memos, and other odds and ends that somehow escaped the flames. Much of the original production was lost in the 1993 fire at Butler Street Studios, but enough survived to piece together what Crackodile & Friends once was. Today Symitri is working with Wally to bring the show back.
