Yum!

Why waste food when food can waste unwanted guests?


Nice motto....but uhm....aren't you having guests over this weekend?


Now that you mention it, yes I am. But they're not unwanted, so I don't really think the food thing really applies.


I'd be skeptical if I were your guest now.


Nonsense. Anyway....today's Sametime Status comes to you courtesy of Sam and Max, Freelance Police. Not long after becoming comic book and video game heros with a rabid cult following, Sam and Max (described as a 6-foot canine Seamus and a Hyperkinetic Rabbity Thing, respectively) enjoyed a brief stint on the Fox network as cartoon stars.





Didn't your boy Titus also have a brief stint on Fox?


Yes...seems to be a pattern. Regardless, this cartoon with overly profuse dialogue was not long for this world, particularly after some incidents in The Christmas Episode. However, during it's run, there were some remarkably funny moments and situations that appealed to an audience other than the "target market" for Saturday morning cartoons. One such episode was called "The Invaders" and featured two miniature invaders trying to destroy our heroes.

Let's Watch!


Boy...that just keeps going, doesn't it?


Yes and no. The cartoon was ended after one season, but Sam and Max live on in new video games that I haven't played. Life is good.

I would leave a comment but I have to go take a vertical squirt bath.
