The Mysterious Ms. Eccentric is one of the spin-offs of The Past Present and Future. It's a gothic mystery that takes places after the events of the first Past Present and Future book.

Ms. Eccentric: The protagonist. Selena Sale, better known as Ms. Eccentric is a mysterious woman in her twenties. She purposely dresses and acts as freakish and off-putting as she can. Not much is known about her, including whether she's good or evil.

Officer Emily: The deuteragonist. A young woman who has recently joined the police force. She is determined to figure out what Ms. Eccentric is up to. She's the smartest and bravest officer on the force, and she's eager to prove herself.

Kelly: A young woman who is frequently seen with Ms. Eccentric. It's believed that she and Ms. Eccentric are business partners. Kelly wears a pair of rabbit ears on her head that refuses to take off until the right moment comes.

Ms. Goofball: A troublemaking woman that loves to get in people's way. Despite her goofy way of acting, she tries to be more friendly and loving when she's around Emily. She wants to be close with Emily, but her villainous side puts her at odds with her crush.

Vincent Jay: A businessman who has become grumpier and more cynical after everything that's happened to him. He does care about people, but it's believed that he's one of the city's most dangerous businessmen.

Frankly-Glorious Sale and Julia-Newmars Sale: Ms. Eccentric's parents who are a greedy couple. They became rich after committing a number of bad business deals. They love their daughter, but they didn't do a great job raising her.

Sheriff Smith: The current leader of the police force. He's been working for the police force for decades. He wants to end the city's corruption, but things become more challenging than he expected.

Deputy Baker: The second-in-charge of the police force. He's a smug, overconfident guy who is willing to do extreme things to get results. Despite working for the police force, he is antagonistic, rude and immature.

Martin East: A guy who is filling in as mayor while Lloyd Cliff is away. He refuses to accept bribes from Mr. and Mrs. Sale. He works with Sheriff Smith to get evidence of Mr. and Mrs. Sale's crimes.

Roddy McDowall was a wonderful actor who left a huge impact on the world of Hollywood. He was an important part of various franchises. One of those franchises was Batman.

Several famous actors guest-starred in the original Batman series as villains. One of the most memorable guests was Roddy McDowall as the Bookworm. Because of Roddy McDowall's great performance and the Bookworm's fun personality and gimmick, the Bookworm is one of the more popular villains from the series.

The Times That Paul Reubens Appeared in Batman

posted by whatsupbugs

In honor of Paul Reubens, I have this article that looks over the times that Paul Reubens appeared in the Batman franchise.

Paul Reubens had a cameo appearance in Batman Returns film as the Penguin's father. The Penguin's father was originally going to be played by Burgess Meredith, the actor that played the Penguin in the original Batman series and movie. However, Burgess Meredith was dealing with health problems, so he had to pass on the role. Batman Returns wasn't the first time that Paul Reubens appeared in a Tim Burton film, because he had previously starred in Pee-wee's Big Adventure....

The Time Squidward Tried To Host Blue's Clues

posted by whatsupbugs

Blue's Clues fans know that Steven Burns's Steve was the original host of Blue's Clues. While working on the fourth season, Steve decided it was time for him to step down as host and move on to other things in his life. However, that didn't mean that it was time for the series to end. Blue's Clues was still a big hit with families, so it was decided that the series would get a new host.

Nickelodeon decided to do something rather amusing when it came time to announce the new host. Instead of just giving the answer away, Nickelodeon did a commercial that said that you had to see the newest episode...

Why The Batgirl Film Would Have Been Awesome

posted by whatsupbugs

Batgirl almost had a film come out, but before the finishing touches could be put on the film, it was cancelled. Instead of getting a theatrical release, DVD release or streaming release, the film wasn't released to the public in any format. I was and still am very upset about the film's cancellation, because I had been looking forward to the film. In fact, it was one of my most anticipated superhero films.

It was going to be Batgirl's first film.

While Batgirl did appear in 1997's Batman and Robin and several animated films, this film was going to be her first time in the spotlight. Barbara...

Joel Schumacher's Unmade Third Batman Film

posted by whatsupbugs

Joel Schumacher directed 1995's Batman Forever and 1997's Batman and Robin. There were plans to have him direct a third Batman film. The film was expected to have a 1999 release, but it ended up not getting made. However, a lot of thought went into ideas for the film.

Joel Schumacher's Batman films are considered to be sequels to Tim Burton's Batman despite having a different director and different actors playing Batman. Joel Schumacher was brought on after the studio feared that Tim Burton's version of Batman was becoming too scary to market towards kids. Joel Schumacher was asked by the studio...

The Second Time That Blue's Clues Passed the Torch

posted by whatsupbugs

In my previous Blue's Clues article, I mentioned how Steven Burns's Steve passed the hosting torch down to Donovan Patton's Joe in 2002. This helped ensure that the Blue's Clues series would continue even after Steve was no longer a part of the show. Steve served as the host of the first four seasons and the original movie. His time as host started in 1996 and ended in 2002. Joe served as the host of the fifth and sixth seasons. His time as host started in 2002 and ended in 2006. Joe also appeared in Blue's Room. That series began in 2004 and ended in 2007.

After the original series and Blue's...

The First Time Blue's Clues Passed the Torch

posted by whatsupbugs

Passing the torch is a very important thing to do when it comes to careers. They say that nothing lasts forever, but by passing the torch down, a legacy can continue to go on. Actors can't have the same roles forever, so it's necessary for them to pass the roles down to new people. Doing this can be risky, because if the new people don't do as good of a job, it can lead to unhappy responses from fans. However, it's important to have trust and faith for the next generation.

The Blue's Clues franchise is one of the best examples I've seen of passing the torch. In 1996, the Blue's Clues franchise...
