Uncle Scrooge Runs Out Of McLuck


I knew you couldn't dive into a pile of gold coins! Finally, cartoons have finally stopped lying to me. As a kid I was fascinated with Scrooge McDuck and his money vault and for Richie Rich as well, for that matter. No wonder were so accepting of the weirdness of the über-rich, having been feed these tales of excess as children.

But that's neither here nor there, as we all now know the wealthy have their problems too, as Fatal Farm's even creepier version of the DuckTales opener shows:

Where Everybody Knows Your Name


Fatal Farm's take on the classic Cheers song is just the right amount of wrong. And with an accused al-Qaeda mastermind's trial beginning in Guantanamo Bay today, this seemed an appropriate choice. Is appropriate the word I'm looking for here? Hmm...

Anyway, Fatal Farm has reworked 15 TV themes from the 1980s and given them a neck-snapping twist. They can't even put their version of ALF on their YouTube page and their Ducktales intro made me feel a little wrong. Now that's comedy.
