In the new show, a babysitter shows up at the house of two kids to read them a "deadtime story", bringing them the actual physical books themselves. As she reads them the story, we then see the story itself play out, occasionally cutting back to the "real world" where the babysitter and kids interrupt and provide comments.

zero context example, doesn't even specify which character!

** Also in "Little Magic Shop of Horrors". Like the one in "Revenge of the Goblins", he has a sassy, joking personality, though in this case, even moreso.
