Saddam and the Third Reich
2007-01-03 22:39:01
There was a disclaimer to let me know that Saddam and the Third Reich was produced before Saddam’s execution on December 30th. Right there, you know we’re in for a lighthearted hour of entertainment. You know, this is the first time I have been forced to watch The History Channel. Of course it is about Hitler. Because Hitler makes up 99% of history. There is a re-enactment of the forming of the Baath party, which was modeled after the Nazi party. These parties give “party” a bad name. Paris Hilton also gives “party” a bad name. Snap! Did you know that both Hitler and Saddam didn’t like Jews and were big on racial “cleansing?” You did? Hmmm. I don’t know what else to tell you. The Grand Mufti rose up against the Jews who fled from Germany to Palestine. He has a funny hat, which is probably why he rose to power. Everyone underestimates the person with the funny hat. That’s why the organ grinder’s monkey wears a fe...

Dirty Jobs: Chimney Sweeper
2007-01-03 22:39:01
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. I hope your religious or non-religious holiday treated you well. And now, on to Dirt y Jobs . The first dirty job of the night is chimney sweeping. It is an extremely dirty job, and Dick van Dyke would have died of black lung years ago if Mary Poppins was real. You didn’t know it wasn’t real? I apologize. Did you know there is a National Chimney Sweep ing School? You know, in case that cabinet making class at the tech college isn’t working out for you. The second job out host, Mike, goes on is lumberjacking. In the water, that is. There is 140 year old virgin timber at the bottom of lakes and rivers. They originally sunk when moving them over water to a mill. It just seems a little silly to go diving for it. Now add a couple of sharks and you have yourself an exciting occupation. Enough messing around with these young whippersnappers. It is time to mill some 600 year old timber. Wow. That’s older than me and you combined! And ...

Doctor Who: Doomsday
2006-12-26 22:33:04
It’s time for part two of the Doctor Who season two finale. We have Cybermen controlling the Earth and Darleks coming out of a void egg. You know, if you’re too lazy to read to post just below this one. The Cybermen didn’t know that the Darleks were inside the magic floaty egg. They’re going to be surprised. If Cybermen can feel surprised. The destruction of the world makes me hungry for a cupcake. Hold on for a second. Cupcake in tummy, the Darleks are stealing brainwaves with toilet plungers. I’ll never plug the toilet up with brainwaves again. The Cybermen and Darleks are having a little Dueling Banjos sort of conversation. They both wanted the other to identify themselves first. Speaking in the third person kind of messed that up. The Darleks did admit that the Cybermen were superior. Superior at dying! Awww snap! The Darleks totally dissed the Cybermen! There is some Darlek shaped case called the Genesis Ark that the Darleks are determined to prote...

Have a Happy Xmas
2006-12-26 22:33:04
It’s the holiday season and I have been watching TV by force for almost a year. And thus I have earned myself a week of vacation. TV stinks over the holidays anyway. I’ll be back watching TV on January 2nd, 2007. Voting will be back up again slightly before that. Until then, have a happy and safe holiday. I’ll see you soon. Oh yeah, and I’ll be working on this over the break, so don’t think I’m lazing about. Well, I’ll be lazing about a bit. Playing video games and what not. But the productive bits will be filled with The Mustache Rangers. Tah!

Doctor Who: Army of Ghosts
2006-12-26 22:33:04
It’s the Doctor Who season finale. Well, part one of the finale. And it starts off with Rose narrating how she died. How can you narrate something when you’re dead? Unless you’re Marlon Brando. It seems like he could do just about anything post mortem. Jackie just told Rose that her dead grandfather is coming for a visit. And that he did. Him and the army of ghosts. It’s that damn Torchwood Institute stirring thing us. Torchwood and their ambiguous giant lever. I need to have one of those installed. Awesome! Like a weather report, there is a ghost report on the television. The humans have gotten over it. In fact, they have embraced it as part of their culture. The Japanese have really gone gangbusters for the ghosts. Torchwood also has a giant hovering sphere in their basement. A sphere of mystery. I hope it isn’t as boring as Michael Crichton’s Sphere. No, wait. That was the good one. The Andromeda Strain blew. Snog! Oh how I love British slang. ...

The Standard of Perfection: Show Cats

You are making me watch The Standard of Perfection: Show Cat s . I can’t quite understand that last sentence, so let us continue. I don’t think God likes cat shows, since the Bible says “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other.” I know you think your cat looks like Nicole Kidman, but she really doesn’t. Rumor Has It? You named your cat Rumor Has It? Listen, I have two cats. Bartleby from Bartleby the Scrivener and Dizzy from Strangers with Candy. Simple. One name. And I have no misconceptions that they look like anybody. You all is crazy! Texas Bell’s Candice Bergeron? That can’t be the name of your cat. There must be some mistake. “They know exactly what you say?” Horsefeathers, says I! Baloney!

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
2006-12-26 22:33:04
Rudolph the Red-Nose d Reindeer is a classic Christmas special narrated by Burl Ives. I will find out who that is in a second. Burl was a folk singer who was jailed for a short time in Utah for performing the song Foggy Foggy Dew. The authorities found it “bawdy.” Well, now we certainly need to find the lyrics to this song, don’t we? One night she knelt close by my side When I was fast asleep. She threw her arms around my neck And she began to weep. She wept, she cried, she tore her hair Ah, me! What could I do? So all night long I held her in my arms Just to keep her from the foggy foggy dew. Bawdy, huh? Damn Mormons. Rudolph was just born with a red nose. His father is ashamed of him. There is Herby too, the elf who wants to be a dentist. So it this show pro-gay propaganda or anti-gay propaganda? Why does Rudolph’s nose whistle? The glowing redness wasn’t weird enough, I guess. What if herpes glowed and whistled? It would me much harder to spread. Mrs....

An Evening with Colin Powell

An Evening with Colin Powell is my first dish for this evening. Journalist Juan Williams will be taking us through the life of the former Secretary of State. Colin Powell is 69 years old. Tee hee! That age is like something that is dirty. What a delightful joke! Colin Powell, who I will now refer to as CP, can speak Yiddish. Better yet, he can speak with a Jamaican accent. One could only hope he can speak Yiddish in a Jamaican accent. CP’s dad was 5′3″. That’s seven inches shorter than the average American male. Of course, CP’s dad is from Jamaica. I wonder how high they get, on average, down there. CP has a degree in geology. Thus my rock tumbler will make for the perfect 70th birthday present. From what I can gather, CP is black. They keep making a point of it over and over, so I thought it best to make sure you knew. CP was in the military. He is actually General CP or GCP. That’s different from GNP. Or GOP. Well, it is kind of similar to GOP. ...

My Husband?s Three Wives
2006-12-26 22:33:04
As awesome and hilarious as a show on TLC sounds, it will never be what you want. My Husband ’s Three Wives will surely be one of those major disappointments. These folk live in Texas. Now this Brian dude only has one legal wife, but two spiritual wives. So the title of this show is already misleading. Brian is a psychologist. I can’t quite wrap my mind around that. He doesn’t believe in monogamy since it leads to more divorces. I have a feeling that more marriages were ended by trying to bring a second woman around. I reject your stupid theory, Brian. Brian married his first wife legally. Then he started sleeping with and then moving in the other two ladies. The thing about polygamy that rubs me the wrong way is the treatment of women. He just started sleeping with other woman? That doesn’t seem like a responsible and respectful things to do. Have as many wives and husbands as you want! But don’t be a jerk about it, okay?

Happy Holidays: The Best of the Andy Williams Christmas Show

Tonight is a damnable night of PBS holiday specials. We’ll start with Happy Holiday s : The Best of the Andy Williams Christmas Show . For those of you who don’t know, Andy Williams is some dude. Andy Williams is a singer. And a pleasant one at that. Does that mean I want to watch his Xmas special? No. But here we are, aren’t we? Did you know that I hate Xmas songs? It’s true! They are horrible songs. The only reason you hear them year after year is tradition. It is not good music, and I’ll fight anyone who says otherwise and also wants to fight. It wouldn’t make any sense to fight if we both didn’t want to. “There’s a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray?” What the hell is that supposed to mean? Who can relate to that? 0.0% of Americans know a Farmer Gray. Up yours, Sleigh Ride. “Parson Brown?” Screw you, Walking in a Winter Wonderland.

Bethel is a local Twin Cities Chris t ian college. There is your background for the Bethel University Festival of Christmas . I have, in fact, been to their festival of Christmas once. Watching it on TV can only enhance its flavor, right? Right? Oh, it’s a musical festival by the way. So we can continue on with my hatred of Xmas music. And candles. Candles are never necessary under any circumstances. Ah ha ha ha. What choral festival is complete without a handbell choir? Handbells are to concerts what flag girls are to high school assemblies. I don’t know why I had the volume up so high, seeing as how I don’t really care to hear any of this. Who directed this? “Okay, close up on the bored kid with no facial expressions. Hold it. Hold it!

Doctor Who: Fear Her
2006-12-16 04:28:02
Doctor Who would be so much more enjoyable if it weren’t followed by Battlestar Galactica. A young lass singing about the kookaburra just trapped a little boy in a picture she colored. It is a pretty horrible picture. That would be the worst part of the situation. Being trapped and looking like crap. Does anyone else get this stupid French Vanilla Cool Whip jingle stuck in their head? It makes me want to find out how far ice picks can go into my ears. It is time for the 2012 Olympics in London. No matter. Children have gone missing. Cars stop running. Old ladies are talking. You know, unusual things. We all know that old ladies are turned into delicious mush. You don’t want your mush talking back to you, do you? This creepy lass draws very quickly. Perhaps that is the reason her drawings are rubbish. She should slow it down, take some time. Drawing in perspective would be a plus as well. I think the Flying Spaghetti Monster just attacked Rose. Or a living ball of squiggl...

It’s the last Battle star Galactica of 2006. If only 2006 could go on forever after this episode. The humans are harvesting algae from the Algae Planet for food. Hey, watching paint dry is fun too! Star buck has a weird sort of logic. She won’t get a space divorce because space marriage is a space sacrament. But space cheating is space okay. Some stout fellow has decided to go for a little hike for some reason. He’s looking for something. More food to increase his stoutness, perhaps. I thought they were low on food. Why the belly? He found a temple with some sort of obelisk looking thing in the middle. Obelisks are nothing but trouble. Never buy a house with one in it. There is no pyramid on top. It’s not an obelisk. Just a pillar. Pillars in the home are okay. Especially if they point the way to Earth, like this one is supposed to. Or is it a Cylon trap? That’s what the commercials kept saying. The Cylons want a meeting with the humans. Looks like Dean S...

Michael Photoshopped his head onto his girlfriend’s ex-husband’s body. On a ski trip. With her kids. It was super creepy and perfectly awesome! Needless to say, they’re broken up now. In other news, it looks like Jenna Fischer’s note is still on her desk in this episode. So awesome! Karen and Pam have started to bond, oddly taking the place of Jim and Pam’s shenanigans. That’s wonderful! Again, I can not not say how brilliant the writing on this show is. Andy has taken Michael to Benihana to cheer him up. Wait a second, does that mean that Benihana is as uncool as Chili’s? Damn. I like Benihana. Karen and Pam started their own holiday party to compete with Angela’s holiday party.

30 Rock will be a little less okay than Scrubs. Whoops. They just said, “Either you love me or you have squatters rights. It can’t be both.” The second hour of NBC comedies just tipped in 30 Rock’s favor. Jack is allegedly dating Condoleezza Rice. Liz is breaking up with her loser boyfriend. All the while in between, funny things have been happening. Like Black Frasier. Hee hee. See? There was a titter. You have the plots. The plots have been going on and everything will end up where it always was. You need to strap yourself in and enjoy the ride. Not strap on and enjoy the ride. That is something way different and I will have no part of it. You’re sick. And it turns out Liz’s ex was on Dateline with Chris Hansen. Okay okay. Please let that be the last time To Catch a Predator is parodied. It can’t possibly be funny very much longer.

Scrubs is here, and it will be pretty good but not fantastic. A coffee shop opened up in the hospital. Is this just a fun beginning, or a full half hour long plot? Only a half hour will tell. We will all be wiser very soon. Carla had her baby. Elliott has an older man crush. Dr. Cox has a tip jar. The janitorial staff wants dental care. And coffee shop. Too many plots, Scrubs! Too many plots! I’ve been laughing. The plots didn’t seem like too much. It seems like they are kind of doing a scatter shot instead of concentrating on one or two things. That’s probably the way the show has always been. I didn’t notice before because I wasn’t as busy judging things ever-so-harshly. Not TV at least. Other things, yeah. Sky? Why so blue?

Since nothing else is on, you voted for the Bone s . Bones is boring and absurd. Someone got burnt to death on the rooftop of a hotel. Also, Bones’ brother thinks thugs are after him. How can you make that boring? You’re so boring! Bones’ brother, name of Russ, was being followed. Followed by an FBI agent. An FBI agent who was burnt to death on a rooftop. Hold on. Hold on. It’s coming. Hold on! GOT IT! The FBI agent has something to do with Russ! That deserves a cookie! The FBI agent was taking pictures to figure out the prime location to take Russ out. This episode was directed by David Duchovny. So this whole episode will be shot from the point of view of someone with a giant nose. The father of Bones, the dangerous bank robber, set the FBI agent on fire, cut open his guts, and stuffed a coin down his throat. My theory? He mistook the FBI agent for an arcade machine. He stuck a coin in, didn’t get any results, jiggled the “joystick” a little...

The myth involves an airplane funner falling 20,000 feet. But he was saved by the cushion of a shock wave emanating from a train station that was blown up. There are so many things that are going to be awesome about this. Namely, explosions. Fall ing too. The train station is being made, the bomb is being made. Oh, balloons too! They will lift their dummy above the explosions by balloons! They are also busting a myth about light bulbs and turning them on and off. That has nothing to do with explosions. Be gone, light bulbs! Did you know that there is a light bulb that has been burning non-stop for 105 years? See, you learn things when there aren’t explosions on the screen. I think they tricked me.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas: Special Edition

What makes this version of How the Grinch Stole Chris t mas : Special Edit ion so special? It doesn’t have Jim Carrey in it! Zing! Seriously though, I don’t know. But I sure as spitfire will find out! It is because it’s hosted by Tom Bergeron? Is it because it can be heard in SAP? It is because it is finally being aired in color? This classic cartoon was narrated by Boris Karloff and directed by Chuck Jones. The Whos of Whoville appear fairly similar to sea monkeys. No one is wearing a crown, but not every sea monkey can be king. Then it would just be anarchy. Or democracy. What gender is the Grinch? He sounds male, but he doesn’t exactly have any private parts. He does have a giant booty. His dumps are similar to those of a truck. Will the Grinch still be relevant to future generations?

Hey, here is a show that hasn’t gone on hiatus yet! It’s How I Met Your Mother! It’s not the best sitcom but also better than mediocre. That’s slightly convoluted. With Lily and Marshall together again, the holidays will be just simply terrific! But Lily found the old answering machine in Marshall’s apartment. Ted, the protagonist, left an unsavory message about Lily on there during unhappier times. The show certainly does know how to get a simple plot going as quickly as possible. That wasn’t sarcasm. I know, I know. Very unlike me. Ted won’t apologize for the “B” word he left on the machine. Worse than that, he said it again. They are replacing the “B” word with “Grinch,” which has its comedy effects. And Barny has a terrible cold, keeping him from scoring with many women. Except for the fetishists who like you to sneeze in their face. Those pictures are just so hard to take. You need a time laps camera ...

30 Rock guest stars Conan O’Brien, the best late night talk show host! NBC had to quickly register HorneyManatee.com after Conan made it up in a joke this week. And thus, we were blessed with soft core manatee pron. The plot for this episode centers around Trac y being on the Conan’s show. Another one of his cast mates got bumped. Who cares? As long as we get some fun Tracy and Conan interaction, the show will do just fine. Tracy wanted to gain street cred last episode. This episode, he wants to relate to the American people when on Conan. That is why it is important not to concentrate on the plot of this show. Just let the jokes enter your ears and eyes, then they can meet in your brain and have a hilarious conversation. Tracy is on some bad medication and is going crazy this episode. Some of it is funny while some of it is forced. Laughing ensued. It was okay. Could it have been better? Of course. It’s not The Office.

Veronica Mars: Welcome Wagon

Veronica Mars is a repeat. A repeat! Why would you vote for a repeat? Is this part of the new winter break that most shows are taking? Let us delve into this newfound bull. All the big shows are splitting themselves into different sections which we’ll call fall and spring seasons. Lost, Jericho, Heroes, and apparently Veronica Mars. When did this become acceptable? 24, while starting late, is giving us an uninterrupted season. Again, this is a rather new development in TV seasons. Another practice, started up by Lost, was to go past the end of the hour by a couple of minutes so they could fit in more commercials and screw over people taping things on another stations right after Lost. TV executives are jerking us around. I am hoping that this comes back to bite them with a giant dip in viewers. Let us think about this. 18 minutes out of every 60 is taken up by commercials, on average. In more ways than one, networks are making more money by giving us less. It’s economics...
