TWO FOR TUESDAY - TV ON TV IN "THE X-FILES" (1)



'THE X-FILES'
"FAMILIAR"


Just in time for the mid-season TV line-up, 'The X-Files' gave Toobworld two new TV series, only to be found in the TV Universe.  (Thank God!)

A witch's familiar takes the form of something that might lure its next victim to their death in the woods.  In the case of Andrew Eggars, that form is Mr. Chuckle Teeth, a very creepy TV character from a children's show which makes you wonder how this ever got approved to be on the air.  But apparently it's popular enough to spawn toy dolls and adult costumes.





Little Emily Strong is tempted to join the familiar in the woods when it takes the form of one of the Bibble-Tickles, a Tele-Tubbies knockoff.  The "action" on the screen should have been enough to drive away any potential fans, and yet when a purplish Bibble-Tickle shows up outside the patio door, Emily gladly runs away with it.



BCnU!
