Propjosh dropped me a line to let me know he is preparing to unleash the final season of his long-running Blue and Gold fan series. Here's what he had to say about what you'll see when you visit his YouTube channel:

Without giving away too much, this season will be very closely related to the Booster Gold comics. Five years passed since Ted Kord was killed and Booster is trying to cope while working alongside Rip Hunter. There will definitely be some episodes straight from the comics. There will also be an episode where they will be completely animated with possibly a guest star.

Here's a link to my trailer for the season.

I will have new episodes every Saturday starting Sept 5th until the end of the year.

September 5? That's tomorrow! Finally something to watch other than the constant stream of political advertisements on my television. Thanks, Josh!

And if you're looking for something else to entertain you this long Labor Day weekend, know that Blue and Gold -- A Superman and Booster Gold Podcast released a new episode earlier this week. You can find it via blueandgoldpodcast.blogspot.com.

Youtube videos and podcasts? Sometimes the Internet is pretty great.

Propjosh is upping his game. For years, he has made short comedic videos using Booster Gold and Blue Beetle action figures. Now he's branching into animating our favorite comedy duo!

If you like that — and I don't know anyone who wouldn't — you can see more of propjosh's vidoes on Youtube.com. Keep up the good work, Josh!

I'm going to come right out and say it: I don't like George Romero-style zombies. I think they are the least plausible of all monster tropes, dumber even than sparkly vampires that spend their immortal lives doing biology homework. Therefore, I've never read an issue nor watched an episode of The Walking Dead.

That said, I'd like to bring you attention to the fact that YouTube auteur Propjosh, creator of three seasons of "Blue & Gold" comedy shorts, has opened his fourth season with an homage to The Walking Dead.

Because I've never seen a single anything about The Walking Dead, I can't tell you how it stands up to the original, or how it references its source material in any way. I can tell you, however, that there are some pretty funny moments, especially the surprise ending of who is filming whom.

I'm not going to embed the 6 minute video here — I'd rate it PG-13 for adult content — but you can easily get there yourself by following this link to YouTube.com.

Whether zombie films are my bag or not, I have to tip my hat to Propjosh for creating fan-films incorporating Booster Gold. Keep up the good work, Josh!

Last night at midnight, Cartoon Network debuted the Robot Chicken DC Comics Special. The shot of Booster Gold versus Solomon Grundy that appeared in last month's episode trailer was seen in the episode, and Booster put in an additional appearance in the group shot at the end.

Teammates Ice and Firestorm each had lines, but poor Booster didn't have any dialogue. At least we were warned. On Friday, Vaneta Rogers of Newsarama.com posted an interview with Robot Chicken writer Kevin Shinick that included this paragraph:

"And I actually did a Booster Gold voice, but he got cut," [Shinick] said. "But we put the deleted scenes on the DVDs, so people will get to see that."

If we want to see 5 seconds of talking action figure Booster Gold, it looks like we'll have to buy a $15.00 DVD. Or visit PropJosh on YouTube for free.

Thanks to MetalWoman for warning us about Booster's cut scene on Friday afternoon in the Boosterrific.com Forum.

This weekend, regular Boosterrific Forum participant Morgenstern called our attention to the YouTube videos of propjosh. Apparently, propjosh is a big Blue Beetle and Booster Gold fan, as evidenced by his many, many parody videos using DC Universe figures.

That's just the tip of the iceberg! For more than a dozen additional Blue & Gold videos, plus plenty more stuff, visit Propjosh's Parodies at Youtube.com.
