Like a lot of nerds, I spent a truly unhealthy amount of time playing Lucasarts adventure games when I was a kid. Sam and Max was one of my favorites. There's jokes in that game (and in the original comics) that had a huge influence on my writing style.
So when Sam and Max: Freelance Police became a Saturday morning cartoon on Fox Kids for one glorious season in middle school, I had a wee bit of a nerdgasm. The DVD just came out, and I'm gonna snap it up a soon as I get a chance. Here's one of the best episodes, adapted straight from the comics. Enjoy!
if you dig this, go check out Telltale Games-- They brought these characters back after a loooong drought.
While Sam and Gerrit are busy writing articles for the website titled "Frooble Butt-Thousand" or some damned thing, Ben tries to tell you what it all might mean.
Assuming you really wanted to know in the first place.
