In Videos: Food Villains in 'WordGirl' Animated TV Show
PBS's animated television show WordGirl follows the adventures of superheroine WordGirl and her monkey sidekick Captain Huggy Face as they battle evil, word-challenged villains while simultaneously teaching new vocabulary to their young viewers. Two of these evil villains, the Butcher and Chuck the Evil Sandwich Making Guy, use arsenals of food products as their weapons.
After the jump, watch select episodes of WordGirl where the Butcher shoot mountains of meat out of his hands (with battle cries including "Sausage cyclone!" and "Pot roast attack!") and Chuck the Evil Sandwich Making Guy squirt honey mustard onto his opponents. (And if the prospect of flying pot roast and vocabulary lessons aren't intriguing enough, one of the episodes features a very, brain-meltingly cute kitten. Surely you'd want to see that.)
