We Interrupt This Broadcast is the seventeenth episode of Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series. It summarizes 6 episodes of the original series, more than any other episode of The Abridged Series so far.

Description[]

Ah, the Card Game Channel. The only station you'd be more ashamed to watch than the pay-per-view Porn channels.

Everyone's battling for a spot in the final round of Duelist Kingdom, but who will make it through? Surely it would NEVER be Yugi, that would be way too obvious...

Trivia[]

  • The "last time on Yu-Gi-Oh!" in the opening is from the actual 4Kids dub, spoken by the real Dan Green.
  • The announcer's list of Mai's duels is incomplete: she has apparently won at least two card games, though offscreen: Once against Rex Raptor, and once against a man in a bee costume, right before her on-screen duel.
  • This remains the only episode (besides the clip show episodes) to cover more than one duel that was originally a multi-parter.

Cultural References[]

  • The TV scenes included in the opening montage include the actual opening from the English version of the Yu-Gi-Oh anime, an old commercial for a Black & Decker iron, a clip from I'm Alan Partridge, a part of a commercial for Remington shavers ("I was so impressed, I bought the company"), and a clip from Space Ghost: Coast to Coast.
  • The background song of the insurance commercial is "Fake Wings" from .hack//Sign.
  • The music that plays during the Zorc and Pals advertisement is "Dearly Beloved" the title theme from the Kingdom Hearts series.
  • Yami's line "Say hello to my little friend" is from Scarface.
  • The KaibaCorp commercial is in the same style as the MasterCard commercials.
  • The Marik stinger is a parody of Futurama's Hypnotoad character.
