Man: Alex Video Game Review!
[zapping]
Whoo!
[ding]
[intense music]
- [in a New York accent] Hi, everybody!
No, I'm not Alex.
I'm his mom.
My little Alex is sick in bed behind me,
he's got a sinus infection
and the things that are comin' out of him are just icky, icky.
Gross. Green...
Alex: Mom, please, you're embarrassing me
and you're sitting way too close to the camera.
- Oh.
[cutting out] Is that better?
And honey, lay back down!
You gotta be elevated by two pillows
if you want that mucus to drain!
- [moaning]
- Okay, here we go.
Since Alex is sick,
I'll be takin' over his video game review channel today.
- Guys, please don't unfollow me, I'm so sorry.
- Oh, hush, they're gonna love me!
Okay, let's get into it,
I got a nail appointment with Jeanine at four.
- [moaning]
- Uh, what's the first game, hun?
- It's Apex Legends.
- Oh, this one with the friends and the birdy sidekick?
- What, no!
That's not a birdy sidekick, that's Bloodhound's crow
and it helps him be a technological tracker.
- Okay, okay.
I'm ready to review this game.
- Oh, please no.
- My favorite is the cutie in the front
who's holding Jell-O.
- That's--
[audience laughter]
That's not Jell-O,
Wraith's superpower is manipulating space-time.
- Okay, it's like the Wonder Years.
And these three best friends
are like Kevin, Paul, and Winnie Cooper
and it's exactly like the Wonder Years,
but they got a little birdy sidekick like Chicken Little.
- What?
Mom, no, they're not, that's not--
- And, and, oh, oh, oh!
And they get in all sorts of silly shenanigans
just like the Golden Girls!
Oh!
And it's exactly like the Golden Girls but with a bird!
- No!
Mom, no, Apex Legends is about--
- Hun!
- It's a Battle Royale game,
it's got weapons and fighting and--
- Lay back down!
- [groaning]
- Let the mucus drain!
I'm sorry I yelled.
Hun, what's the next game?
- Super Smash Brothers.
[audience laughter]
- Oh this one with the friends camping?
- No-- Mom, they're not camping!
- Well this little dinosaur turtle's makin' a fire
and they're about to eat s'mores.
- No!
Bowser is a demon king, mom!
- Okay, I'm ready to review this game.
It's like Garfield.
- Nope.
- And it's exactly like Garfield but also the Smurfs.
- No, nope.
- Except, except--
Oh, oh, it's like these best friends,
they go camping like, like in Full House
but that episode of Full House where they go camping.
- No, mom,
Super Smash Brothers is a crossover fighting video game,
it's not like Full House or the Smurfs
or the episode of Garfield where they go camping.
- But also, this Mutant Ninja Turtle can make fire.
And he feels misunderstood.
- No, it's Bowser.
- Honey!
Mucus!
[audience laughter]
I'm sorry I yelled, hun, what's the next game?
- [sighing] It's Halo 6: Infinite.
- Oh, these Power Rangers are in love!
[audience laughter]
- [shrieking]
- Okay, I'm ready to review this game.
It's like Angels in the Outfield--
- What?
- But the angels are Transformers.
[audience laughter]
And it's like the Wonder Years
and it's like if Kevin and Winnie Cooper were Transformers
who were also angels.
And they go on this ski trip and they fall in love.
[audience laughter]
- No, mom, Halo is not that.
- Okay, okay, that's all the time we have for today.
I gotta go, Jeanine's waitin' for me.
I'm gettin' French tips!
Alex, this was fun!
Maybe if you're feelin' better next week
we can do this together.
- No, please, no--
- Honey, mucus!
I'm sorry I yelled.
Buh-bye!

Honey, mucus!
- [deflated] Uh.
- Buh-bye!
