This show is based on the fictional character of Tek Jansen, who was introduced by Colbert in his book, "I Am America (And So Can You!)." The series is co-created by the Late Show host Stephen Colbert along with Rich Dahl and David Javerbaum. The show is produced by the production company "Comedy Partners" and directed by Peter Atencio. Since Stephen Colbert himself is a popular talk show host, the show has a massive fan following, who were eagerly waiting for this animated adventure.

The series follows the superhero Tek Jansen, who works for the Galactic Bureau of Investigation (GBI), which is an organization dedicated to protecting the galaxy from a variety of evil forces. As a member of the GBI team, Tek Jansen has to face many enemies and solve challenging missions that endanger the galaxy.

The character of Tek Jansen is a very powerful and sophisticated superhero with exceptional combat skills, highly advanced technology, and an unmatched intellect. He has a team of villains to catch, which include the likes of Nemesis, who is the arch-enemy of Tek Jansen. In addition, he is surrounded by his team from the GBI, which includes the likes of Dr. Zeal, his trusted and brilliant adviser, and his friend and in-charge of the GBI base, Val.

Tek Jansen is voiced by Stephen Colbert himself and the rest of the cast comprises many talented voice actors who lend their voices to the other characters in the series.

Apart from being entertaining, the show also touches upon themes like power, corruption, and morality, which are relevant to our society. The moral ambiguity of the characters and the conflicts they face, give the show a human touch, making it more relatable to the viewers.

One of the standout aspects of this show is the way it parodies many of the existing science-fiction tropes, including the Star Wars franchise, making it a hit with fans of the genre.
