Yes, well, um... hello there, and welcome to a very special lost archives episode of Balderdash! It's been, as you may have noticed, some time since we've have had any episodes to speak of, much less the actual ability to indeed post episodes, as the old infamous studio has long since gone caput. Also, on a side note, the very last two episodes long since considered stolen, had been finally recovered in our producer's apartment, along with the keys to the studio, the flashing Balderdash logo, two plane tickets to Maui, and the head of our producer... Hmmm.
But nevermind that, my dear audience! You're here for the goods, to be entertained; to know that despite the end of an era and the death of a no good back stabbing swindler and the bankruptcy of a once thriving popular production company now in tatters, The Show Must Go On!
Towards the end of our long running series, we had been at a loss to come up with guests (well, guests who were willing to work for mere prestige and the joy of it...read: peanuts) But, animals being the warm and kind humanitarians that they are (We had some random pet food left over from a busted Cat commercial we were shooting that fell through. The cats, evidently, are too good to work for us. No matter. Things have a way of working out.) agreed to come and help us out for this edition. So, armed with a camera, a few lights still working, and our beautiful guests (and their animal whisperer/translator/clean up after-er, Mark, a.k.a. the last intern foolish, umm gracious enough to stay on), we set out to create this next to last ever episode of your old favorite and mine, the one, the only, Balderdash!

Well, our special good time compadres, that about does it for this episode of Balderdash! Thank you thank you thank you for coming along for the ride. You know something, without your patronage and support, we would be the little engine that couldn't. Aw. You're beautiful people, and we mean that. Sooo, we've got one more left in the can, pals.. and while we would love to say we've saved the best for last, there's really no way we're entirely sure of that. Up until very recently, we haven't had the resources to screen this episode nor the proper space with which to pretend to compile it. It's been a long road...but a road we've felt priviledged to travel. Speaking of roads....what good would a path like this be without some... detours...?
What detours you ask?
Why only the blazingly beautiful bounty of Bonus Games of course!
Oh yes I can hear you..
"What? Wait. You can't be serious. How could you do this to us, you cruel old bozo, you?
NO BONUS MOVIE GAMES? AHHHHHH!"
Whoa whoa. Calm down,buddy. I was just letting it simmer. You know, the old leave you wanting more gimmick. Don't worry..here you go... There.. All better.
Now. Who's your friend? :)
