It's adorable! How am I doing YouTube so wrong that I didn't find out about this until a year and 18 million views into its existence?
Marcel was the offhand, one-week creation of Jenny Slate and Dean Fleischer-Camp. Guess where they live? Brooklyn. Guess what they have now? A two-picturebook deal and a TV show in development.
Guess how sad the new, second episode of Marcel the Shell is? VERY SAD. So sad you'll hate balloons. As you should. Bastards.
