Episode 41 | Pinocchio – Part I

Ghostly crickets, the first ever villain song, and a serial that scarred a generation... Oh lawd, it's about to get pretty dark! Continuing their holiday tradition of honoring far-too-lifelike toys, these ‘90s kids return to the foundations of children’s entertainment with one of Disney’s most beloved (and most harrowing) tales, compare and contrast the film with the novel, and uncover the surprisingly dark origins of some of pop culture’s most ubiquitous characters.
