It’s not getting the full respect it’s due – it’s the bonus episode on the disk, adding content to Snoopy’s Reunion – but it is there in all its Flashbeagly glory! Coming out in April, available for preorder now.

One review even went so far as to say “Great tie, Nat!” What more could one want in a review? Truly, has even the outstanding Morgan Freeman ever gotten a review of “great tie”? I think not!

I’ve actually been invited to take place in the featurettes for some upcoming DVDs. That is the power of a first-class tie.
