L Auberge Chez Francois restaurant review: It s ready for its close-up, yet again washingtonpost.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from washingtonpost.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
The internet is abuzz this week with following resurfaced videos of Wilkins and Wontkins, a pair of coffee-selling talking puppets created by Jim Henson whose times together nearly always end in a gruesome execution.
The pair is featured in 179 short television commercial spots, nearly all of which result in the sadistic Wilkins brutally murdering Wontkins after the latter muppet admits to not wanting to drink Wilkins Coffee.
The violent acts range in depravity, as Wontkins is shot in the head, stabbed with a sword, burned alive, bombed, drowned, run over by a train or electrocuted via electric chair. In many instances, the callous Wilkins simply beats Wontkins over the head with a blunt object, sometimes uttering sadistic remarks such as, “Strange things happen to people who don’t drink Wilkins.”
