Costumes and prosthetics is cheaper than puppetry and cgi. Speaking of puppets, try Farscape.

Yeah clip shows were an excuse for the entire staff to take a week off. You still see them sometimes in Japanese animation since they work their animators to death.

A Million Ways to Die in the West is one of the worst films I've ever seen.

I could not get through that film, it was just full of non sequitur jokes that not only were anachronistic but also just broke the fourth wall constantly.

As a recent homeowner myself I realize there's no way Al could have paid the property taxes on his house, let alone the mortgage, working retail. But that's Hollywood for you, always putting average schmoes in houses they couldn't possibly afford because the writers have no idea how real America lives.

I've listened to an episode or two and at least at start it's very unstructured, just the guys talking about their experiences with the the episodes and how the show got started. If you like stream of consciousness podcasting you'll enjoy it but if you're looking for a more structured take than three dudes bouncing off of each other you might not enjoy it.

It's Disney, they would 100% deepfake Tony Jay. Probably not that well, but they can do it and they've already shown a willingness to do it.

Considering they deepfaked Mark Hamil and they have his number I'm 100% positive they'll start using Deepfakes on dead actors with simulated voice boards.

Support among Americans for concentration camps and ethnic cleansing is unfortunately pretty evergreen. There’s a sizable minority who will support a lot of bad things if they have the sense that such ideas are popular or that they’re protected from the consequences of voicing their beliefs.
