The Pinky Show

Network:
Language: English
Category: Education / Education

Hi there. The Pinky Show is the original super low-tech mini-program by cats. We tend to focus on information and ideas that have, for various reasons, been misrepresented, distorted, suppressed, ignored, or otherwise excluded from mainstream discussion. Or sometimes we just have meandering fluff. Featuring the vaguely titillating combination of poorly hand(paw)-drawn illustrations, no-motion animation, and amateurish narration, we have been called 'the new Mr. Rogers for the postmodern thinking animal' - that's probably a pretty accurate description. Take care, Pinky
