COMMENTARY
The title is something of a send-up to Buckaroo Banzai, likely my all-time favorite cult film. I only wish I'd done it more justice! Marginally better than "Nothing to Report," it still fails to inspire me with confidence that I know what I'm doing. There are a few half-decent jokes, the best of them buried as throw-aways, such as the book covers for The Cat that Shat, My Little Pony Bites, and Scientocrappy. And keep a sharp eye out for the Breaking Bad gag.
I suppose one might get a giggle out of the text at the start of the segment on the Holy Scripters: freeze the frame and read the passage.
