Sesame Street Does Benoit Blanc
There won’t be any comic book reviews this weekend or next. I read some comics this week, but didn’t really have anything worthwhile to say about them. And next week I’ll be on an extended Christmas vacation! Which stinks, because some major comics come out next week. Oh well! I’ll catch up the week after.
Instead of all that, I’m gonna share this Sesame Street homage to Benoit Blanc and the Knives Out movies.
Heh, his name is “Beignet”, that’s awesome. Anyway, I enjoy when Sesame Street does such things. And I enjoy Benoit Blanc mysteries to begin with. Which also serves as a reminder that Wake Up Dead Man is available to watch on Netflix right now! Go watch it, if you haven’t seen it yet.
Good times all around.

It’s Grinch Season, Animated
Tell It Animated is back with a take on the Grinch, that classic Christmas rascal who is big into stealing Christmas. Simple as that.
Now do Santa Claus, you coward. All movie and TV appearances of Santa Claus ever! You have an entire year to get it done.
Anyway, another good episode from Tell It Animated; very seasonally themed. Good work all around.
This also gives me another opportunity to post this The Grinch Song Uncensored is BRUTAL by Wizards with Guns. This thing is hilarious and definitely not child-friendly, so be warned if you decide to watch.
Now that’s more like the holiday spirit we need right now!

Danny DeVito is Always a Gem, Especially as Wolverine
There is a really, really fun meme making its way around YouTube over the past few months, and that’s inserting Danny DeVito footage into other pop culture. Especially footage of DeVito as Frank Reynolds in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Most recently, the Corridor Crew has inserted him into the X-Men films as Wolverine.
That’s funny stuff! That’s quality internet weirdness. And I’m very happy to share it!
I’m also really happy to share these videos from the YouTube channel eli_handle_b.wav. It looks to me like this channel came up with the Danny DeVito meme, with their videos inserting Frank Reynolds into Baldur’s Gate 3 and The Last of Us.
It’s just endlessly funny to me! Frank Reynolds is an amazing character, and there is so much Danny DeVito footage available. I hope the internet continues to deliver on this stuff, because it’s a hoot!

Dragonball Z Abridged is Back…for Some Bits!
Dragonball Z Abridged, by Team Fourstar, is without a doubt one of the finest achievements of the nerd internet. These dudes took this beloved cartoon and, quite honestly, made it even better, let alone funnier. I still rewatch those episodes on the regular, and I’ve been watching their creator commentaries over the past year.
Well they’re back, baby! The crew at Team Fourstar famously decided to throw in the towel after The Cell Saga, deciding they didn’t have enough gas left in the tank to tackle the monstrosity that is The Buu Saga. Understandable. But it seems they’ve decided to come out of retirement for one last go at some bits of the Buu Saga.
Man, that takes me back. It’s a lot of callbacks and inside jokes, which is fine. This isn’t a full project. Just something they’ve decided to do for fun, to help that one guy with his Buu Saga review. It works for me. It’s funny, it’s well made, it’s classic Team Fourstar doing the Buu Saga. It’s wonderful!
Congrats to 15 years, Team Fourstar!

How The Batman Should Have Ended
Welp, it’s another Monday. Gotta get up. Gotta go to work. Gotta consider something to share on my blog. Thankfully, the fine folks at How It Should Have Ended put up their cartoon for The Batman. Makes my Monday just that much easier. These people still do good work.
Some OK jokes. Some good plot hole poking. And a really fun alternate ending. Good times all around. And it wasn’t just 10 minutes of their cafe scenes that I don’t like. Heck, I even liked this one! The most important thing is that my Monday posting is taken care of.
