What's this? Your regular episode of What A Cartoon, being interrupted by something completely different? No, you're not the victim of a dastardly Joker scheme—though you'll at least hear us talk about one of those. As a little diversion from our regular programming schedule, this month we're swapping out the standard episode of WAC with a brand-new episode of our Blabbin 'Bout Batman miniseries. So listen in as we discuss The Joker's attempts to use the darkest force ever created by humankind: copyright law!

A whole decade before Futurama wowed Fox viewers with its masterful mix of sci-fi and comedy, BBC Two launched Red Dwarf, an outer space version of The Odd Couple set three million years in the future. And, over the course of the last 30-plus years, this cult hit evolved beyond its simple sitcom premise and has seen plenty of planet-hopping adventures, alternate realities, doppelgangers, computer simulations, and GELFs. On this episode of What A Cartoon, join us as we hop 'cross the pond and explore Red Dwarf: the series that embiggened our vocabularies with words like "smeg," "goit," and "gimboid."

Thanks to premium patron ToonJay, we're continuing our coverage of all things Craig McCracken with a look at his short-lived series, Wander Over Yonder. Listen in as we explore two distinctly different episodes of this colorful, snappy cartoon: one that sends up the worst period of TV animation, and another that depicts the possible rehabilitation of an evil robot via the power of friendship (and floppy sun hats).

Our first regular What A Cartoon of 2025 showcases a huge part of US animation history: Craig McCracken's The Powerpuff Girls!
