Charlie the Unicorn

What's your opinion of this very popular (yet insane) series that's been spread across the internet? For those who aren't familiar with it, it's a series of flash animated shorts about a unicorn named Charlie who is always dragged into ridiculous adventures with his 2 "friends", who always end up robbing him of something (example - his kidney).
 
I love the Charlie the Unicorn shorts, I first came across them a couple years ago (when there was only 1) and then saw the second and third ones on YouTube upon their release, the first two are my favorite but I love the trilogy as a whole. I wonder if they plan on making anymore of these shorts in the future?

"Hey Charlie, watch out for the Bleh Bleh Bleh!"
"Oh no, a shnarlog has Charlie"
"It's a leoplurodon, yeah, a magical loplurodon!"
 
WE'RE ON A BRIDGE, CHARLIE

Besides that, I do love the Charlie shorts. The first one was a great satire of kiddie adventure movies while the next two where just utter insanity, so I do enjoy them very much and they're a GREAT timewaster xD I know a girl who owns a Charlie hoodie from Hot Topic, I suppose merch isn't rare?
 
Like Manga4Life I came across the the first before the sequels came around and have enjoyed them all. They're completely crazy and that's what makes them so great. Those Film Cow guys have definitely mastered a certain surreal and offbeat humor and if you like the Charlie shorts you should give some of their others a shot like Llamas with Hats.

Hot Topic has a few Charlie shirts but the Film Cow site itself has plenty of merchandise.
 
I like Filmcow's stuff for the songs more than anything. A lot of the humor can get random to the point that it's just that- a bunch of random stuff.

But darned if they can't write earworms.


. . . an apple pie/a bright blue sky/a breezy meadow in July . . . argh. Gonna be singing that all day.
