The Mikey Show crew—Mikey, Sean, Eddie, and Rob—spent part of a 28-hour broadcast doing a synchronized, relentlessly irreverent watch-along of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. They followed Charlie Bucket from repeated golden-ticket disappointment to his lucky win, while repeatedly arguing that Grandpa Joe was no invalid and that Wonka's contract and factory were absurdly dangerous. Their biggest reactions came when Augustus Gloop entered the chocolate pipe, the tunnel ride turned nightmarish, Violet Beauregarde became a blueberry, Veruca Salt fell down the garbage chute, and Mike Teavee was shrunk by Wonka-Vision. In the finale, Willy Wonka invoked the tiny-print contract to tell Charlie he got nothing, then reversed himself after Charlie returned the Everlasting Gobstopper and awarded him the factory.

What happened, in order

  1. Wonka watch-along begins

    The Mikey Show crew synchronizes Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and immediately turns the candy-making opening into jokes about Eddie's digestive system.

  2. Charlie's crushed birthday

    Charlie opens a birthday Wonka bar without a golden ticket while the hosts gleefully narrate the Bucket family's disappointment.

  3. The last golden ticket

    After the supposed fifth ticket is exposed as a fraud, Charlie buys another bar, finds the real last ticket, and is approached by Slugworth.

  4. Wonka's impossible contract

    Willy Wonka makes every child sign a contract covered in tiny, increasingly unreadable print, setting up the rules he later uses against Charlie.

  5. Augustus in the chocolate river

    Augustus Gloop drinks from the chocolate river, falls in, and is sucked toward the fudge room while the adults and hosts argue about why nobody helps him.

  6. The nightmare tunnel

    Wonka's boat enters the infamous flashing tunnel as the crew reacts to the disturbing images and argues that the children's movie has suddenly become a nightmare.

  7. Violet turns violet

    Violet Beauregarde ignores Wonka's warning, chews the experimental meal gum, turns blue, swells into a blueberry, and is rolled away for juicing.

  8. Fizzy lifting disaster

    Charlie and Grandpa Joe secretly drink fizzy lifting drinks, float toward a deadly ceiling fan, and escape by burping themselves downward.

  9. Veruca is a bad egg

    Veruca Salt demands a golden goose, storms onto the sorting platform, fails the egg test, and drops down the garbage chute with her father following.

  10. Mike Teavee shrinks

    Mike Teavee sends himself through Wonka-Vision and reappears tiny while the exhausted hosts mock the effects and acting.

  11. You get nothing

    Wonka cites the signed contract to deny Charlie his prize for stealing fizzy lifting drinks, but Charlie returns the Gobstopper, passes the test, and inherits the factory.
