Transcript of the segment

What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: /Film.

1. Chip DarnellParamount has repeatedly fumbled the Avatar: The Last Airbender franchise, but announcements at New York Comic-Con twenty twenty-six offer hope of a turnaround.

2. Tobias WrenfieldAs a lifelong bender, I have felt every one of those fumbles in my spine.

3. Chip DarnellA lifelong bender. Which of the four elements is your favorite?

4. Tobias WrenfieldWater, fire, and the other one. The big one. It's very earthy, honestly.

5. Chip DarnellEarth.

6. Chip DarnellLet's talk about your new project. I'm told it's called Gravy Lighthouse, and you voice the lighthouse.

7. Tobias WrenfieldI voice the lighthouse's inner conflict. The lighthouse itself is played by a lighthouse, which was a budget decision.

8. Chip DarnellHere's the hard question. Many fans say Paramount can't be trusted with this franchise. Do you trust them?

9. Tobias WrenfieldI trust everyone. I trust the studio, the fans, and especially whoever is doing the casting for the new thing.

10. Chip DarnellYou didn't answer the question. Do you trust Paramount with Avatar?

11. Tobias WrenfieldI'm a bender, Chip. As a lifelong bender, I only trust the bison.

12. Chip DarnellTobias, you keep saying lifelong. Have you actually watched the show?

13. Tobias WrenfieldI learned it from a lunchbox. A very detailed lunchbox. I cried at the bison. It's this keychain, see? Great dog.

14. Chip DarnellThat's a bison.

15. Chip DarnellOkay, lightning round. Favorite snack, first thing that comes to mind.

16. Tobias WrenfieldGas station nachos, a strip mall pretzel, and anything from a drive-through window at three in the morning.

17. Chip DarnellSir, you are my favorite guest of the hour. Last plug before we go.

18. Tobias WrenfieldGravy Lighthouse, in theaters never. And Paramount, I'm available, I have a keychain, and I know the dog's name.

19. Chip DarnellOne last question, Tobias. Which element would you bend if they cast you?

20. Tobias WrenfieldTuesday.
