Times have changed over at the Walt Disney Company since Steamboat Willie and the glory days of Snow White and The Mickey Mouse Club. Web cartoons the likes of Two More Eggs proves that despite its buttoned-up image, Disney is not afraid to occasionally push the envelope—just as it did 75 years ago with Fantasia. (Yes, it’s been that long).
Two More Eggs, which is part of Disney XD’s official channel, is an animated short from the pens (well, more likely the keystrokes) of the Brothers Chaps, Mike and Matt. Creators of the popular series, Homestar Runner, their latest effort is a rather curiously odd short that features a new episode every Tuesday. Our hero (well, that may be a stretch) is a creature named Dooble who bops merrily around in a goofy orange hat singing a strangely hypnotic theme song. The short description that accompanies the episode says Dooble’s life is a “jox box.” That may explain why he sounds like he’s either had way too many or taken too many hits to the helmet.
