Thank you Tracy Ullman (sp)!!! Amazing what’s become of the 5 minute short cartoon from that comedy show! Doh!

The good news is that according to Cartoon Brew, the London Times has a very positive review. Hope there’s more coming.

Matt was very good on the Daily Show the other night (despite the new over-the-shoulder camera angle they unveiled during the interview). The clip they showed of the family in Alaska was very funny!
