Do you know what an AI does without a purpose?

In the early 90s, a TV show, funded by the government, made way on air trying to make kids laugh and enjoy the world around them. The main character, the only character, was a little half human, half jackalope boy named, Jack. Nowadays, the show is long and forgotten and no one knows about it except when a IT company finds the show as researched on how this show was made when there weren't actual animators.

This has:
Angst
Violence
Human experimentation
And half animal and half human characters!
