In our recent Pizza Toppings show, I made reference to an episode of Alvin and the Chipmunks in which a sugary sweet singing group was exposed as a bunch of bickering jerks when they couldn't agree on pizza toppings. Well, Chris writes in with this:
I just listened to your podcast on pizza toppings, (literally, I'm walking to a bar as I type this, and while walking I was listening to your podcast) and I just had to correct you on your Alvin and the Chipmunks opening. It was actually an episode of Garfield and Friends, and there were three pigs who always agreed, which obviously bugged Garfield who never agrees with anyone and isn't friendly and happy the way the pigs were. And I'm not one of those guys who writes in to say, you know, "actually, in Doctor Who, episode 7 season 2, they explain that...," but every time I think about ordering pizza with toppings, I think of this episode, and of Garfield saying "In all of history, no three people have ever agreed on pizza toppings." So I had to mention it.
Thanks Chris, and that does make a lot of sense. First, it just sounds like a more Garfield-esque storyline, and second, I watched a lot more Garfield as a kid than Alvin and the Chipmunks. /dan
