A lot of things inspire us... things we see, read, hear... people in the entertainment business who we've watched since we were little. Mel Brooks is one of those people. We admire him because he's a genius. We love the way he spoofs things.
"You only spoof the thing you love, there's no fun in ribbing a bad movie. It's too easy. You have to have a target you respect, one that's big enough to stand up to parody." -Mel Brooks
We live by that quote above. We love The X-Files, which was also an inspiration for "Fox & Rat".
