Dusky Panther's Saturday Morning Cartoon
So views for these cartoons have been waning as of late. There’s been too much wane on the screen and it’s really been grossing everyone out. Time to clean up our act and go to Sunday school! Let’s GOOOOOOOO [to Sunday school]. The white Jesus is gonna be so upset that I did this!
Thanks for the tip to re-cut The Flying House from Stu.
Suggestions are always welcome, especially if it’s Samurai Pizza Cats.
As always, the cartoon archive is open to the public.

Twin Peaks S01E03: Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer
A couple of days ago Godsauce gave us a great primer on how David Lynch depicts society and his characters: on the surface we see an exaggerated depiction of “normal” life, superficial at the surface level. Beneath the veneer, though, his protagonists discover a depth – and darkness – that seems bottomless. Likewise, Godsauce pointed out, his lead characters discover the same complexity and breadth can be found within themselves.
Weekly gif Round-Up
Wow, what a great week! New SNL, New Thursday night TV and NO New Glee!! Best of all worlds. Keep it up NBC.
These images were found all over the internet. Some may even have been made by me.

Twin Peaks: Traces to Nowhere
Greetings, friends! I apologize for the tardiness and sloppiness of this post, but I have been quite busy with stuff.
I was asked to write this piece about the first proper episode of Twin Peaks because of my longstanding reputation as the world’s foremost David Lynch scholar (nope). While it is true that I have written some delightfully undergraddy shot-by-shot analyses of Lynch films, specifically Blue Velvet and Lost Highway, I must confess that there are a few embarrassing gaps in my Lynch experience, one of which is that I have not seen all of Twin Peaks. I have seen the first few episodes, including the extended feature-film version of the pilot that Lynch made just in case the show wasn’t picked up, but I don’t really know what is going to happen. The good news is that any spoilers contained herein will be lucky guesses!
On to the business at hand!
