I'm getting Big Bird too. That's not right, Gromit ;)

Maybe the people over at Google don't realize Wallace and Grommet are very appreciated in America as well.

My 4 year old wanted to watch Were-Rabbit every day for 2 weeks.

i'm finding it hard to care about claymated characters.

my roommate in college had a thing for wallace and gromit. she had this horrible ceramic alarm clock thing that sang some obnoxious tune every morning that had the theme of the doughy duo.

it drove me mad, and i guess i developed a hate for the medium. Chicken run makes me equally stabby.

I used to work at a college radio station with Gromit. He's Nick Park's brother and says that Gromit was based on him, the sensible one in the family, and that Wallace was based on their father, who was a bit of an eccentric and invented things as a hobby. We watched the Oscars together when his brother won, and I've never seen a guy so proud in all of his life. Good times, good times.
