Day 26: It’s a WUnderful Life part the fourth!

Thanks to everyone who took a break from ripping open presents, eating way too much, or doing good works for your fellow bears, to check in with the pandas yesterday!

Is it time for me to pat myself on the back for not missing a single day of 31 days of pandas (at least not yet!) The pace has been grueling…I’ve had to watch many, many, many panda videos of Princess Pinky and Mr Wu (and let’s not forget the Twinkies!) so I could get their little panda selves. just. right.

Oh well, best not to get all puffed up about it…just keep on pandaing, that’s my motto!

And so without further delay, here is the next episode of It’s a WUnderful Life!

Day 25: It’s a WUnderful Life, part 3

6 Replies

I know in the original movie, all the action takes place on Christmas Eve, but frankly, I just can’t draw that fast. So BEAR with me, ‘kay? (I should probably make some kind of new year’s resolution about giving up making terrible puns, but you know, it’s just not gonna happen. Let’s all just move on.)

So, while all the pandas in real life are now partying at mama Bai Yun’s place, in pandyland, it’s time for episode 3 of It’s a WUnderful Life! Huzzah!

Bee the bear tells it like it is: every panda matters.

I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore…oh wait…sorry, that was the last adventure!

There’s more coming your way tomorrow! Merry Christmas to all!

Have yourself a pandy little Christmas….

Thank you, each and every one.

With gratitude and cuppycakes,
Bob T Panda, Babette de Panda, Mehitabel the cat, Mr Wu, Binky, Pinky and don’t forget the Twinkies and the panda kindergarten.

Oh dear. Mr wu is diving right in to say the least.

Hope you enjoy this episode of It’s a WUnderful Life, starring Mr Wu, Bee the bear and more besides!

If I can get all my other work done today, there may be a special edition of the Panda Chronicles tonight.

But only if you’ve been very, VERY good.

Wu is a good bear at heart….

Stay tuned!

Day 23: It’s a WUnderful Life, isn’t it?

5 Replies

Today marks the start of a soon to be holiday classic! One that you will want to watch every year, just like some of those other holiday classics that turn up every year around now. I am, of course, speaking of our new feature adventure, starring the one and only, Mr Wu!

Hold on to your cuppycakes because you won’t want to miss a single minute of It’s a Wunderful Life!

(editor’s note: This series contains extreme melodrama, existential dilemmas and not a little bit of out and out pathos. Please don’t yell at me.)

Thank goodness Bee the Bear still has her magical wand from the last adventure.

Oh dear, we know where this is going, kinda sorta, don’t we?

Be the Bear,

Day 22: Princess Pinky is a STAR!

6 Replies

But you already knew that, didn’t you? Well, now it’s official, at least according to Smithsonian Magazine, where Princess Pinky Bao Bao is this month’s cover girl. And in her Princess Pinky fashion, she demanded a cartoon to commemorate the occasion.

A girl’s gotta do, what a girl’s gotta do, and that applies equally to mama pandas.

Beware, the power of the paw!

Don’t you just hate it when your mom hides your important stuff?

Well, we have just 9 more days remaining in our 31 Days of Pandas series, and we are going to wind up the year with a short feature presentation, It’s a WUnderful Life! Tune in tomorrow for the first episode.

Thank you, to everyone who has joined in with the panda fun! I am so glad you have come along for the ride.

Peace be with you, embrace your inner panda, and keep being the bear.

Day 21: The wait is over! the finale of the Wizard of Wu

4 Replies

Hard to believe this adventure started all the way back in September, but there you have it! It’s all over but the flashbacks! And now, for the final episode of The Wizard of Wu!

All well that ends well. Now let’s have some cuppycakes!!!

See, I told you that I wouldn’t do anything dastardly to Mr Wu. But will we let Mr Wu just relax at home and eat cuppycakes and drink hot cocoa with his mom and the twinkies (not to mention Princess Pinky, who is NOT a bear to be messed with!)?

No, we will not! Tune in Monday for episode 1 of It’s a WUnderful Life, starring, (of course,) Mr wu and all your favorite pandas!

And if you haven’t bought YOUR copies of all the Panda Chronicles books, what are ya waiting for? They make great presents for anyone on your gift list (including yourself!)

31 days of pandas continues tomorrow!

Mr Wu is in the thick of it now! Captured by the Panda Kindergarten, who are under the evil spell of the wicked witch (played brilliantly by Mehitabel the cat, if we do say so ourselves,) and it looks like there is…

Escape…….

Well,lookee here! isn’t that….?

Ha ha! Oh that Princess PinkY! What will she do next? Stay tuned for the next two episodes of The Wizard of Wu!

I can’t look.

Will someone tell me when the scary part is over?

Evilness is one thing, but there must be snacks!

The panda kindergarten MUST be under a spell from the Wicked Witch, don’t you think?

Tune in Tomorrow!
