"This audio . . . will have listeners glued to their CD players. Never a dull moment passes in this uproarious dramatization . . . Each CD contains two episodes full of hilariously appropriate sound effects, dramatic music and witty fake advertising, and every performer brings his or her character to life with aplomb . . . Fully embodying the zany otherworldliness of the series, this audio production is a treat." —Publishers Weekly"A delightfully manic treat." —AudioFile
