Rehash, Or Step Off Puppet

Because I am the interweb, I will share a little secret with you.

Come close. Closer. Okay. Here goes:

The only difference between bloggers and retarded children is that bloggers have interweb access.

Proof? Sites are starting their nerdgasm (not one, but two I saw within moments of each other, and it will only be a matter of time before others find out and get all warm and fuzzy) over a script purchase called The Happytown Murders.

The Jim Henson Company (the living members of, at least) has the “comedic film noir murder mystery” being directed by Brian Henson, who I have to assume is some nepotistic employee asset. The description?

Written by Todd Berger from a story by Dee Austin Robertson and Berger, the story takes place in a world where humans and puppets co-exist, with the puppets viewed as second-class citizens. When the puppet cast of an ’80s children’s TV show called “The Happytime Gang” begins to get murdered one by one, a disgraced LAPD detective-turned-private eye puppet — with a drinking problem, no less — takes on the case.

Wow, how exciting and interesting, but most of all, original! Folks, that's Who Framed Roger Rabbit with puppets, okay? Simpletons.
