Here's Lookin' at You, Babs! [Short Story Review]

"Here's Lookin' at You, Babs!" is a short story written by Gary K. Wolf. It was published as part of a collection in 2012. (I don't actually know when the story was originally released.)

This was a treat. Plain and simple, this whole story is Barbera Walters interviewing Roger Rabbit. It is done how most celebrity interviews are conducted, starting off with a complete introduction of the arrival and meeting. This is then followed by a transcript of the actual interview. The whole thing is witty as hell. Even the parts before Roger shows up is comically written.

If you are a fan of Roger Rabbit in any capacity, then this is a great little gem. It really reminds you what made that character so endearing. He is entirely a toon and is fully knowledgeable about what being a toon is all about. Being he is one of the sillier ones, he does a good job at giving his opinion in his own goofy way. I totally recommend this one.

The story is brief, so I want to keep the review brief as well. I will, however, leave you with my two favorite parts of the whole interview:

Barbera Walters: How old are you?

Roger Rabbit: That's one of two questions you never ask a Toon.

Barbera Walters: What's the other one?

Roger Rabbit: What's the other one.

-----

Barbera Walters: How do you feel about sex in the cinema?

Roger Rabbit: Personally, I prefer popcorn.
