In between the complex conversations are footage of Sweeney creating and playing Pat. There are also hilarious depictions of Pat from the new project. Pats of all shapes, sizes, races, and ethnicities come together for some nonbinary silliness. Go to Full Review

Dark D @RT65718715 6d I'm an OG fan who hasn't thought about Pat since the 1990s. I found this a fascinating mix of interviews from the original fans and newbies. Very honest, endearing and sometimes painful. (The de-pantsing in the It's Pat movie was horrifying.) Great job. See more Read all reviews
