Season one began on February 7, 2011 and there has yet to be an announcement regarding a second season.[1][2] FormatThe production company for "The Unpoppables" is Authentic Entertainment. Authentic Entertainment is the same company that produces Ace of Cakes. Like "Ace of Cakes" the show follows a group of highly skilled artisans in their respective fields as they are challenged to complete seemingly impossible tasks at the last moment. In the show, the cast is given three days to design and build their elaborate balloon creations. This is common in the balloon world as balloon sculptures can not be made more than 72 hours in advance of an event or they risk deflation, color fading and popping. CastThe cast consist of three characters. Addi Somekh taught himself balloon art all on his own. His success has led him to appear in movies, on The Martha Stewart Show, and he has used balloon instruments. He is the boss of New Balloon Art.[3] Prior to "The Unpoppables," Addi had achieved notability in the balloon twisting world due to a documentary "Balloonhat" and an appearance on "Martha Stewart." Katie Balloons is portrayed as the shows fashion expert, she did not regularly make dresses for other people until the show began.[1]Brian Asman is a former chef now working full-time for New Balloon Art. He is known for his realistic art and professionalism. Brian is from Brooklyn, New York.[4] New Balloon ArtNew Balloon Art is the name of balloon decorating company, owned by Addi, that the show focuses on. Founded in 2002 as a one-man company, today the company has grown to include clients worldwide. For large projects, Addi brings in extra assistance as needed beyond the team of Katie and Brian.
