The Wizbits Episode 0001
Aired 15 December 2001
Written, directed, and apparently animated by James Langomedes, the cast of the Wizbits cartoon got together to voice act this unique piece of animated history. Ostensibly based on The Nutcracker, there are extensive additions from James Langomedes's infamously thurough yet mild acquaintence with occult lore.
The feature-length story tells of The Wizbits (including Doodle, in his only post-The Return of Skip!-appearance) celebrating Christmas along with Mordecai, who mysteriously celebrates Crystalnacht, along with a large party with many cameo appearances. The Wizbits discover the exciting story of an ancient battle fought on Christmas, one concerning the King in Tatters and his army of rats duelling with an ancient civilization.
After the others retire to bed, the Wizbits linger beneath the Christmas tree--only to find they're shrinking! They behold a massive battle in miniature, acted out by hordes of rats led by Yellow King Moo Maa in a fight against the Knights of the Chrome Garden. The Wizbits aid the Chrome Garden Knights and lead them to victory. And then follow them into the Chrome Garden.
The rest of the special has best been summed up by its myriad critics*.
Skip: I bet a lot of you are feeling uncomfortable right now.
