Believe it or not I prefer this parody to the song it was based off of. “The Candyman” had to have been a nadir in Sammy Davis Jr.s career (that and his version of “Mr. Bojangles”).
Man, Chef Meowrice spends a ton of money on ads. I just tried reading this one aloud, and it’s at least 35 seconds long, which is an odd length (a long, non-Super Bowl TV ad these days is 30 seconds, and most of those have 15-second edits—think of the Danny Trejo-Brady Bunch Snickers ad). Add in musical flourishes, and this is a 45-second ad!

I’m as tired of Chef Meowrice as Rufus and Joel are. Enough already.

I love the little mice sitting on the stool watching TV in the last panel.

Written by the seventh son of the seventh son of Willy Wonka, IIRC..(You don’t hear the old Nepalese standards so much these days…)
