There have been other encounters with musical creatures on the podcast, though few have been as badly animated as 'Carnage in C Minor'...

Still plenty of time to enjoy the latest episode before the next one is released on Monday.

Robots In Your Eyes @robotsinyoureyes.bsky.social · 10d

✨New episode!✨

In the 31st century, we encounter some very slow moving threats, real pirates (seriously, hook-hand and everything!) and No-no gets his ears turned off. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to see where that singing is coming from....

Of course this take on Jack and the Beanstalk is far from the only time a cartoon series has beaten a well-known story to fit the series's premise. Take this example from Transformers, that ever-so-subtly riffs on the tale of Frankenstein....

Steve and Jason return to the magical realm to see a very familiar tale of giants, eggs and very tall plants, and then find that the villain had what our heroes needed all the time!

Still time to catch up with @jasonjtt.bsky.social and @quarkmcmalus.bsky.social discussing classic 90s cartoon James Bond Jr before a new episode drops on Monday.

Robots In Your Eyes @robotsinyoureyes.bsky.social · 24d

✨New episode!✨

@quarkmcmalus.bsky.social returns to discuss the antics of James Bond's nephew. Who's letting IQ loose with all this tech? Who thought 'SCUM' was a good name for a crime syndicate? And just what is the question no-one really wants to ask?

Robots In Your Eyes @robotsinyoureyes.bsky.social · Sep 1

✨New episode!✨

We're back in the magic realms of Dungeons and Dragons, and still trying to get home. We're flummoxed by the rules of magic, bemused by convertible spaceships, and why does one episode remind Jason of a Doctor Who story?

✨New episode!✨

@tardismonkey.bsky.social returns to find that a classic 90s cartoon really hasn't aged well. We wonder what was going through their minds when they animated this, and think they were trying to recapture a previous format and missing the mark.

@drewwagar.bsky.social and Jason return to the 31st century, and face many questions. How does time work? Why don't the gods just blast him? Where is the instruction manual for that prism? These questions and more will fail to be answered....

Ulysses may have turned back time, but here at Robots In Your Eyes we're no stranger to time travel shenanigans either! There was that epic Marvel UK comic strip 'Target 2006' that @chrischapman81.bsky.social joined us to discuss back in episode 31, for instance.
