What to make of THE SIMPSONS’ controversial opening credits this week? For the first time in the show’s history, the producers handed storyboarding duties to an outsider. They happened to pick Banksy, a graffiti artist who long ago dedicated his life to keepin’ it punkrock.

In Banksy’s SIMPSONS intro, the eerie, artful imagery portrays a fantastically grim environment for the workers who toil behind the scenes of the popular cartoon.

Is Banksy raging against the corporations that bring us our beloved SIMPSONS shows and merchandise? Or is he raging against those who rage against machines? Possibly both.

Before GARFIELD’S HALLOWEEN ADVENTURE, not many holiday specials could lay claim to the word “adventure.”

Consider the old-timey Peanuts specials. In IT’S THE GREAT PUMPKIN, CHARLIE BROWN, all anybody does is sit around a pumpkin patch and wait and wait and wait. Note that Linus always carries a “security blanket” in case he falls asleep with the rest of us.

Along comes GARFIELD’S HALLOWEEN ADVENTURE in 1985. It might put a smile on your face. It might put a nightmare in your noggin. It will not put you to sleep.

“Do you have ESP or a sixth sense? Are you clairvoyant? Are you a medium? Are you psychic?”

If so, MTV wants YOU, but only if you’re between the ages of 16 – 25 (and really drunk all the time, if their other programs are any indication).

But you already knew all of that, didn’t you, Psychic Friends?

Hulu has graciously gifted the world with not one, but BOTH, full seasons of THE ADDAMS FAMILY.

If you’ve never seen the original TV show, you’ll quickly find it much creepier, ookier, spookier, etc., than the movies.

Always pay careful attention to Morticia’s feet. Here’s a hint: She doesn’t have any!

Both the TV show and the movie are based on the cartoons of Charles Addams.
