AD 90: Video Games in Cartoons

In which Gary really stretches the definition of Cartoon by including It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

After the harrowing experience that was covering Wing Commander last month, we needed a palate cleanser. So enter a new kind of episode: a survey of video game-related episodes of popular cartoons! We assure you this isn’t just an excuse to talk about things we already like.

First we discuss three episodes of Adventure Time: “Guardians of Sunshine”, “Card Wars”, and “Dungeon Train.” Then we talk about one of the best Simpsons episodes of all time, “Marge Be Not Proud.” Finally, we hit up the live action cartoon that is It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and its episode “Charlie Rules the World”. Let us know if you like this experiment. We’ll be back with something more standard next month.
