An advertising agency has slapped a lawsuit on the creators of a Cartoon Network show, accusing the producers of ripping off their idea for a show about wacky, talking fruit.
H2M, a Fargo, N.D.-based ad firm claims "Annoying Orange" creators Dane Boedigheimer and Spencer Grove, who are originally from North Dakota, saw the "Talking Orange" commercials that aired in the state from 2005 to 2009,
When Annoying Orange was a gleam in YouTube's big glass eye, nobody got sued because there was little in the way of greenbacks at stake.
Now, of course, the situation has changed and the sharks are circling. (Big surprise, yes?)

I read the article and am trying to figure out WHO they're suing. Even though it's made for Cartoon Network, the show is produced by 14th Hour Productions, who also owns the copyrights to the show.
