Mix-mashmaster Makes M&Ms Medley (SLYT) Pogo (previously) who usually finely purees moments from movies, turns 75 years of candy commercials into 3 sweet minutes that melt in your eyes and ears. Contains chocolate, peanuts, cgi and ancient b&w.

This is very cool and reminds me how often the M&M colors have changed through the years. (I remember original red having questionable dye.) I think the color mix when I was a kid was brown, tan, orange, yellow and green. I'll be crawling through the rest of the Pogo posts this afternoon. Thanks for this!

I LOVE Pogo.


This makes me sad.

It's good to see Pogo still working, but this M&M bit is far from his best work. It's a very deep rut he's in if this is the sound he's still producing six years after the amazing Alice. His best work IMO is that which slices and dices the dialog such that words and phrases are no longer recognizable, they're just tones. That style was fully formed with Wishery and absolutely mastered with Upular.
