To whom it may concern

For when you're in a Sara Sue or Weatherman Wally type of mood:




Get one of your very own here!

Get your sash and insane funnel hat ready for the Eerie,Indiana Tornado Days rewatch!

It's the 14th of the month, and that's the date we put aside to think about all those amazing minor characters, places, organisations and general backdrop that make Eerie so compellingly watchable.

This month's theme is: Miss Tornado Day

Finally!

There are plenty of tornado charms on eBay, but they have stupid human arms sticking out and I hate them. So instead I've used RV charms, a 911 headset, microphones and loudspeakers for the tornado warning, a cassette tape for Howard's cyclonic data recorder thingie, a burger to represent that stupid sandwich, old-fashioned planes for Amelia Earhardt and umbrellas because weather.

If you were going to, for want of a better word, colour-theme the individual episodes of Eerie, what colour schemes would you use and why?

Foreverware: to me, this would be in bright plasticy '50s colours, like you were in a sockhop themed diner, all neon pinks and blues and greens.

Lost Hour: because milk trucks and the Eerie Dairy feature so heavily in this one, I'm colour it blue and white, like the trucks, the milkmans unicorms, and of course the milk itself

Dead Letter: muted pinks and greys and purples, because you see Mary B. wearing pale pink in the flashback, and because the whole episode is a viewed through a nostalgia filter from Tripp's POV, and to me nostalgia reads as a sepia tint on everything, the colours would be a little faded and washed out

Mister Chaney: all the autumn colours. Golds and reds and orange and dark green and deep brown. It's an episode about the harvest and the changing of the seasons, soto me that makes sense.

Broken Record: red and black, like the Pitbulls album covers and the new look that Todd adopts.

Loyal Order of Corn: bright greens and yellows, like the uniforms of the Order themselves

Scariest Home Movies: greyscale. Blacks and whites and greys of various shades, like the old b&w movie Harley gets sucked into.

Marshall's Theory of Believabily: deep dark blues like the night sky, and silver for the ufos, the stars, and Professor Nigel Zircon's Travelling Museum of the Parabelievable.

What about you guys?
