Jimmy Trenton
Jimmy Trenton Takes on the World! is a web series created by J.T. Kilburn that follows the character of Jimmy Trenton. Jimmy is a chaotic, overworked, idiotic mess, who, along with his level-headed partner in crime Richard, makes wacky, over-the-top, low budget commercials for his various businesses. With his trusty green screen, Jimmy can travel anywhere in the world, but he usually decides to put random stock footage in the background instead. Jimmy’s business ventures are never successful, but he just doesn’t know when to quit. Every time a business goes under, Jimmy just starts a new one, creating a karate dojo, a zoo, a pizzaria, a full-contact breakdance fighting studio, and more! So if you want to watch Jimmy’s zany hijinks and Richard’s sarcastic insults, then you’ve got to check out Jimmy Trenton Takes on the World!
