Lemmings '88: Together Again

By popular demand... okay, by a couple of requests... maybe one... this week's blog is a "re-broadcast" of LEMMINGS '88: A VIDEO DOCUMENTARY.

Bits and pieces of this magnum crappus have been floating around on the internet, but now at last they can all be found in one place, here, in the Cliff Notes archives, for future scholars to find and ignore.


All 8 parts are below. (Too bad it’s not 8 ½*)  I've often thought about re-editing it to make it tighter, but hey it was 1988. Life was slower back then. And judging by the picture quality, life was also washed out and blurry with iffy sound quality.

On that note, I entreat you to enjoy.  
* obligatory reference to Bill’s UM.




The singing begins here...

Intermission.


As the 18th Century poet William Collins once wrote “Whether in the form of a sprawling epic or a pointed ballad, the story is our most ancient method of making sense out of experience and of preserving the past.” 

Yes, William, and as your 21st Century counterparts might say,TLDW (Too Long; Didn't Watch).

Either way, Will "Carl" Hahn said it best when he said "There you have it. Or at least some of us are having it." 
Wuh, period, hoo, period.

POLL RESULTS: Last week's results made me laugh out loud. According to your votes, we like to sing everywhere.  Or put another way, we can't make up our mind where we like to sing which is exactly how we got our name! This week: what's your favorite Lemmings eatery? Vote or be shutted.
