  • As you might have heard, there was some drama regarding this trailer yesterday – something about Disney getting it pulled from YouTube. That’s OK. We’ll just link it from elsewhere, where it’s yet to be taken down. It’s a must-see either way.source

Culture: The Taco Bell Chihuahua dropped her final chalupa. :(

  • Gidget was her name, chalupas were her game. In one of the day’s saddest events, the dog that convinced us that Taco Bell wasn’t feeding us garbage died at the grand old age of fifteen. *sigh* We don’t know if we’re going to make it through the rest of the day.source

Culture: Hall and Oates – and Oates’ stache – are back, in cartoon form

  • Well, this is much better than it has any right to be. “J-Stache” is a cartoon featuring Hall and Oates, with Oates’ stache as one of the main characters. We heard about it when it was first being discussed, and held our breath hoping it would be great, and this video sure provides a lot of ammunition in its favor.source

Word on the street is that original cast members John DiMaggio, Katey Sagal and Billy West want a bit more than Fox is willing to cough up. Does it matter if it’s just a cartoon? source
