LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Top reality producer Mark Burnett is venturing into TV animation.

The "Survivor" Svengali has signed a deal with popular online animation Web site Liquid Generation (www.liquidgeneration.com) to develop cartoon TV comedies -- both original and based on existing content.

Under the pact, Mark Burnett Prods. will produce Liquid Generation's first three TV projects, including originals "Witness Protection" and "Rapper in Chief."

Visitors at Liquid Generation, in business since 2000, can find out if they are more drunk than soul singer Amy Winehouse, or try to match breasts with their famous owners.
