"U" Characters

  • Ulala Morgan: Morgan's "homage" to the main character from the game series Space Channel 5, which she debuts during her review of Space Channel 5: Ulala's Cosmic Attack for the GBA. Decked out in a purple wig and orange miniskirt, Morgan wanders around the TechTV offices while playing the game (dancing and gesticulating loudly the entire time). Much to Morgan's chagrin, her enthusiasm for the character merely ends up annoying her fellow co-workers (Adam throws a Tux plush doll at her to get her to shut up, while producer Matt Keil, head writer Blair Butler, and former web producer Leticia Caparaz can't figure out whether she's supposed to be impersonating RuPaul or a tramp).
First Appearance: Episode No. 140
Performed by: Morgan Webb
  • Unemployed Ninja: Not to be confused with That Ninja, the Unemployed Ninja is "relieved" of his duties as a silent assassin, so he visits a temp agency in an attempt to find a new line of work. However, the new jobs that his case worker Billie Jo Tasker finds for him (including washroom attendant, coupon clipper, and MC for a ventriloquist act entitled Jeff 'n Jesus) do not end well, and the Unemployed Ninja eventually performs hari-kari on himself to avoid further humiliation. As he is dying, Billie Jo reminds him that he could've accepted a hug.
First Appearance: Episode No. 7023
Performed by: Unemployed Ninja (Eric Acasio), Unnamed Sensei (Jonathan Solin), Billie Jo Tasker (Heather Frank), Unnamed Bathroom Patron (Robert Manuel), Miss Bendova (Emily Mollenkopf), Unnamed Prosecutor (Casey Schreiner)
  • Ralph Urntable: see Wallace, Clifton
  • Ursula: see Valkyries
  • "Naruto Uzumaki": The X-Play staff have listed several reasons for their dislike of games based on the anime series Naruto (the fact that he's a ninja who wears a bright orange jumpsuit, his lame catchphrase "Believe it!", most of them are just average fighting games, etc etc). However, they must have uttered one negative comment too many, as the titular character himself (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) stormed onto the set and challenged Adam to a fight. Luckily, emergency co-host Blair Butler was able to chase him off with a rolled-up newspaper.
First Appearance: Episode No. 6094
Performed by: X-Play production assistant Eric Acasio

Famous quotes containing the word characters:

    His leanings were strictly lyrical, descriptions of nature and emotions came to him with surprising facility, but on the other hand he had a lot of trouble with routine items, such as, for instance, the opening and closing of doors, or shaking hands when there were numerous characters in a room, and one person or two persons saluted many people.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    For the most part, only the light characters travel. Who are you that have no task to keep you at home?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
