16B - Even More Dr. Otto

Ernest Goes to Podcast

This Dr. Otto extra poses tough questions: Is Ernest really a mad scientist with a hand growing out of his head? Are there any behind-the-scenes morsels we can gobble up? Is Jackie Welch the best? We'll ponder all of these and answer at least one!

In this extra:

• Behind-the-scenesy Dr. Otto morsels! Poster, script page, storyboard!
• “The plot is strange, and only mildly existing” - IMDB reviews of Dr. Otto!
• This unbelievably ‘80s Hawaiian Punch ad
• This passive-aggressive article about the making of Ernest ads!
• The lost Dr. Otto sequel
• The tendency to self-mythologize - Ernest the folk hero
• Why Lance Sterling lost that seat in the Senate
• The big question at HAND: Is Ernest actually Dr. Otto?
