Wikibear is back, Yay! In case you missed his previous visits with Conan, he is the stuffed toy which is powered by Wikipedia, and works in much the same way as SIRI. Like SIRI, Wikibear ‘learns’ his owner’s preferences, calls the child by name and knows how to look up the answers to most everything he’s asked.
Although the bear is still cute and adorable, it’s apparent this time out – that he is fascinated by things that are less than child friendly. In fact, Wikibear gives ME the creeps with some of his new research obsessions. There is no question that Wikibear doesn’t answer, then segue into a gruesome fact. Brace yourself, you may not care to know this much about Custer and The Little Big Horn or the ‘talented’ Ted Bundy.
Conan feels that these facts are things children shouldn’t be thinking about, but there is no deterring Wikibear whom we learn has ulterior motives. Wikibear is waiting “to rule over humans in the post-apocalyptic wasteland!” Where can we buy a ‘Ted’ bear? Sure, movie bad-bearTed drinks and swears, but this smartypants bear is evil!
