* TakeThat: Towards the end of Tate's wish to make a big budget action film, Weesh shows him a newspaper with reviews of it. One reads, "This film is a complete, juvenile mess. It's as if it were written by children with short attention spans." Which it was, but Tate makes a good point:
-->'''Tate''': How is that any different than any other action flick?\\
'''Weesh''': Beats me.

''[[http://www.weeshcomic.com/ Weesh]]'' is a webcomic by Dan Hess (a.k.a. the guy who made ''AngelMoxie''), which features the titular rodent-like creature that grants wishes to the Merle siblings. The comic follows a gag-a-day format, with each week covering a certain theme, or the consequences of a wish gone wrong.

'''Characters:'''
* Weesh - a wish-granting creature that runs on licorice.
* Tate - the middle child, and a bit of a geek. Prone to making bizarre wishes.
* Olivia - the youngest of the three. The epitome of an innocent little girl.
* Zoey - the eldest child, who really just wants to be left alone.
* Dad - the hard-working single dad.
* Mo - a spunky girl who hangs out with Tate and gets caught up in his adventures.
