Death to Smoochy 30-Second Summary
In Death to Smoochy, Randolph “Rainbow Randolph” Smiley hosts The Rainbow Randolph Show. It’s a popular children’s TV show on the kids TV channel Kidnet. While his Rainbow character is happy and friendly onstage, off-stage, Randolph is a corrupt alcoholic; accepting bribes from parents to put their kids on his show.
When a FBI investigation exposes Randolph’s shady business dealings, Kidnet promptly cancels his show and fires him. Sheldon Mopes and his character, Smoochy the Rhino, replaces him. Sheldon is overly sincere, and only wants to provide quality entertainment for children. His producer, Nora Wells, has many doubts that his show will succeed, but it quickly becomes very popular anyway.
Meanwhile, Randolph goes to Marion Stokes, and pleads for his job back, but there’s nothing Marion can do. Randolph tries many times to have Sheldon fired, but he doesn’t have any luck. With nowhere to go, he tries his former partner, Angelo Pike, and asks him if he can stay at his apartment. Angelo says yes.
