Rumor Has it He's the Hog You're Leaving Us For

So recently I'm on Facebook, derping around with pictures of Toilets Marrying Women and Grumpy Cat judging the future king of England when I came across an interesting discussion held by my pop-culture high friends surrounding a writer and director named Dave Polsky. Now, Dave's worked on animated powerhouses such as South Park, Pucca, Rugrats and even My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

He is Personally responsible for this scene and this episode. He also wrote the first two Scary Movies and Produced The Buzz on Maggie; and soon, according to said half-rumor-half-preview discussion, he will be the proud creator of the latest Sonic the Hedgehog Cartoon known as Sonic Boom

According to Dave, the show will star Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy Rose and will focus on comedy. Whether this will make the show more accessible to new audiences or alienate people as Teen Titans Go alienated fans of the edgy original is yet to be determined.

However, this information raises a treasure trove of questions and possibilities for our favorite blue-bipedal-speed demon: will Jaleel White reprise his role as Sonic or will a comedy show starring Steve Urkel as a blue rodent finally be acknowledged as the most ridiculous concept known to man? Will the show feature on the Hub and thus canonize the speed-feud between Rainbow Dash and Sonic, or even build upon it including Pinkie and Amy placing respective bets or Knuckles and Big Macintosh begrudgingly marking the finish line? And if not, what channel dares take the mantel? Nickelodeon? Cartoon Network? Kids WB?
[NOTE: in the event that Kids WB does obtain the rights to Sonic Boom, it is advised that you burn your televisions to cinders and avoid all instances of SEGA products for the next thirteen years.]
Will Sonic Boom employ the same levels of mythology gags and shout outs as My Little Pony, or more physical humor and puns a la The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog? Will this show be the revolution SEGA needs to pull their mascot away from teetering on the brink of irrelevance back to his rightful place as a gaming legend? Will we finally find out what that THING was at the end of Sonic SatAm?

Well... there's my answer.... in any event, Sonic Boom is coming at we're gonna hear it before we see it.

Don't Expect a Focus....

Greetings and salutations to anyone willing to read this blog. If you are expecting another blog that riffs on horrifically awful fan-fiction well... feel free to keep visiting the Pocket Dimension of Horrible Fanfiction. I promise I will continue to work with Johnel to rifle through misspelled crossovers, insane My Little Pony self-inserts and Mary-Sue laden Zelda crack fics.

That said I plan to make this blog a touch more... informative. True, this will still for the most part be a comedy blog and I will not hesitate to throw in a good pun or make a joke at a politician or game developer's expense if I feel it fits; however I will try to have a subject for each post backed by links, pictures, videos and a certain amount of facts. Note how I said each POST, not this blog overall. So don't be surprised if one week I'm comparing and contrasting Game of Thrones with the Ramayana and the next week I'm talking about why the United States Court system needs repair and on the weekend following that I'm covering the finer points of Adventure Time.

However, no matter what odd, slightly geeky subject I choose to tackle I intend to give it the respect it deserves and give a new spin on the subject while adding in a few too many jokes. All Told, Expect a good time.
