Joker, that episode was bloody funny. I would have mentioned the flute thing first, but I got slammed with a nearly impossible take-home test today... and yeah, this is the first time I'm at my computer to do something else but access MATLAB. *sigh*

But it was freaking hilarious. I think I'm going to make a habit out of that show. =) Ping Ling is funny...

I don't think he's supposed to be a direct parody of Link, but more of video game (RPG, most likely) characters in general.

**Prince Toad** · 10-29-2004, 03:09 PM

It was amusing, worth watching, but not exactly hilarious. I guess I'll keep watching.

But all the characters have basically one trait. It got repetitive before the end of the first episode. If they can keep it fresh, I'll be pretty amazed... otherwise I'll stop watching.

There's actually a few more similarities between Xandir and Link besides the flute. First, pointy ears. Second, he's descripsion in the confesional moments is "Video Game Adventurer" Third, if you look on the back of his swimsuit(if you want to call it that) you'll see a triangle mark.

Just so you know, Drawn Together sucked.

I love the joke about Tingle.

*Cough* Back on topic.

Yeah, I seen it. If it shapes up a tad better, I may watch it. Xandir looks like he works in a beauty school and nicknamed "Tiara". XP

The GameInformer (this magazine is actually rather interesting. Wish I had subscribed earlier) I got yesterday had an article on the CD-i Zeldas. I'll scan it if anybody's interested.

Sir Delicious Rightfoot · 11-03-2004, 07:32 PM

Sure, I'd like to see it CK.

**Booyakasha** · 11-04-2004, 12:53 PM

Last night's episode was pretty messed up. I'm amazed the FCC let them get away with it.

'Drawn Together' is fairly funny; the premise and characters both provide a lot of potential for comedy. All that's missing is some more clever writing. (Lesbianism and female genitalia shouldn't be punchlines unto themselves.)

STUPID SHOW! I watched it last night. It is nearly as bad as growing up Gotti.

By the way, I realise it's only two episodes in, but I find myself strangely drawn to Toot. There's just something about that 'adorably cute and schemingly evil' set of womanhood that intrigues me (hence my deep abiding love of Miss Tron).

I'll drink to that one. It was just disturbing, really. But at the same time, it was funny to see all the parodies they're running of such shows as 24 and Shrek.

Wanna Know What Zelda Looked Like?

This was in a special section about really messed up games in a series, such as Mario is Missing, Earthworm Jim 3D, and Mega Man Soccer. It was called "What Were They Thinking?"

If it appears small, hold your cursor over the picture until a little box appears in the lower right corner, and click it. It should enlarge it to full size.

In my opinion, Link looks more like a girl than Zelda. It wasn't made by Nintendo. Go figure.

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 11-05-2004, 10:34 PM

The shows missing an anime parody though, I mean they have the Pikachu thing (which I guess could be considered anime), but I could see a bipolar anime power house on the show in no time.

I think its pretty funny, but not laughing out loud at pure stupidity funny like Family Guy.

Sir Delicious Rightfoot · 11-06-2004, 12:19 AM

Ling Ling shouldn't talk Jappaneese Giberish, he should continuously repeat his name.

The Missing Link · 11-06-2004, 03:12 AM

^ There's also copyrights to worry about... You can't make the characters identical.
