“Weird Al” Yankovic pays tribute to badass Charles Nelson Reilly while spoofing the White Stripes in his latest animated video “CNR”. The video was made by JibJab, who have also created a special version where you can add yourself to the video.

Yuk yuk yuk. I’m going watch that whenever I’m not loving life. It’s great having Weird Al back.

…and Weird Al brings to mind another 80s blast-from-the-past who were obsessed w/ Charles Nelson Riley: The Dead Milkmen…

For a huge fan of CNR, Weird Al, *and* the White Stripes, this is a bloody trifecta!

This was very funny.
I love Al and Charles Nelson Reilly with the heat of a thousand suns and I don’t want to be a downer but this premise seems a tad ripped off from the George Washington animation by Cox and Combes; down to the laser beam eyes, kicking things in half and f*ng mammals.
