Toon is a 2016 Dutch-language comedy television series created by Dirk van Pelt, Beer ten Kate and Joep Vermolen, and starring Loulou Hameleers, Amy van der Weerden and Joep Vermolen. The plot revolves around introvert Toon (Joep Vermolen), a jingle writer who accidentally becomes an internet sensation after performing an impromptu song at a party in his home arranged by his sister and attended by her friends, all strangers to Toon. Joining him in the song is party-goer Nina (Amy van der Weerden). The song, titled "Get Out of My House," goes viral, catapulting Toon into the world of social media fame and show business, which he finds overwhelming and unwanted.
As Toon's fame grows, his sister becomes his manager, pushing him further into the spotlight he desperately wants to escape. The show humorously explores the absurdities of social media culture and the impact of unwanted fame on a private individual. Throughout the series, Toon navigates various awkward and comical situations that arise from his new-found celebrity status. [1][2]
