Paul Maki, self-proclaimed Idjit, makes episode-by-episode reviews of television shows. An eclectic mix of short run shows, animated, and older television is reviewed along with biographic tidbits, cultural artifacts, and general weird stuff.
There’s a chance Paul lacks the spirit, but let’s see what he thinks of Gravity Falls Season One Episode 12, “Summerween.” He’ll look at a cast member who had other prominent roles, figure out the most cartoonish element, and find a favorite line.

This time Paul and Darcy look at Track Three of The Muppets Mayhem, “Exile on Main Street.” They look closer at Saara Chaudry, and go in-depth on Sgt. Floyd Pepper’s history and construction. There is also pushing of the forbidden cheesy soundboard buttons. Yeah, it gets a bit chaotic at points.
