Bar Handle
Do you think they put this handle here for realy drunk people so they don't fall off they're stool?
Tokyo Thursday – Shhhhh 2
Here we have another exciting installment of everyone's favorite game show that takes place in a library.
As you know the concept is simple: Before each round cards are drawn, whoever gets the skull card gets a prank played on them. But remember, be quiet!
Fox Exec Doesn’t Have Heart To Cancel Simpsons
Brook Fordyce has received many kudos from critics since he became the head program director at the FOX network. When he expanded American Idol to four and a half hours and added it to a sixth night, ratings soured. When he added the new game show Super-Hooker, critics raved. And of course there was his decision to let Seth MacFarlane make another cartoon with outdated references and no plot or story to appeal to that often forgotten mentally retarded market. But, there is one thing Fordyce just has not been able to do, cancel The Simpsons.
The Simpsons, which has been on for a mere 19 seasons has delighted many over the years, but even the writers of the show agree it's just not that good anymore.
"What, yeah, we don't really write the shows anymore," writer John Frink told us from the closet they call a writers room, "we just look back at old shows and rewrite them."
"The show hasn't been very good lately, or for the last 5 seasons even," Dr. Joe Orsulak, professor of TV studies at Joe's College Emporium, "the show should be canceled, or moved to the CW, where low ratings are all part of Dawn Ostroff's Evil plan to kick start Armageddon."
So, if the show's ratings are so low, why hasn't it been canceled?
"I know it should be canceled, alright," Fordyce told us, "I've even gone down to the Simpson's studio a couple of times to do it. But every time I look into Matt Groening's big brown eyes... well, I just can't go through with it."
Not everyone is so sympathetic. FOX owner and National Socialist enthusiast Rupert Murdoch isn't so impressed.
"Big brown eyes?" Murdoch shouted from on top of a flying centurion pony, "I'll show him some big black eyes if expenditures are not successfully cut by 1.3% by the end of the fiscal year!"
With the threat of a semi-God riding over Fordyce's head, what's keeping him from giving the show the ole axe?
"I've spent the last 20 years with those wacky yellow guys." Fordyce told us with a tear in his eye, "When Homer met his Mom I cried, when Marge became a Cop I laughed, when Lisa became a vegetarian I stopped eating meat, and when Bart became Captain Sewer Pants and saved Springfield from the attacking 80 foot Regis Philbman I was on the edge of my seat."
"They'd be fools to cancel us now," Matt Groening creator of The Simpsons, Futuarama, Life is Hell, and a foul smelling fart during this interview, "We got some great episodes coming up! There's one where Homer becomes the lead singer for Arcade Fire, we working on another episode where the family gets a horse... again, oh, and let's not forget the return of Captain Sewer Pants!"
Fordyce isn't worried though, he has a plan.
"I'll just cancel something else. I've been doing it every year. So far I've canceled Firefly, or Arrested Development, Family Guy, Futurama... 24 soon."

Happy Easter!
For those were are Greek out there, just come back to this exact page in one month so it's relevant.
Tokyo Thursday: At the ATM
Here's a clip from Japan that is not a game show at all, how about that. Here we have a comedic sketch involving going to the ATM. It contains a Brain Age joke, so, I mean really, it has to be great!
Watching TGIF part 2
Last week I began watching a TGIF from November 1991 and logging my thoughts while doing so. Today I'm watching the second and last (thank God) half.
00:05 Here we go... Rising and Falling with Perfect Strangers.
02:01 Some blindfolded guy is smelling oranges in this commercial. Isn't that a form of foreplay from them movies on late night Cinemax.
03:33 "Birds with no feathers flock together", celebrating Mud Day... Oh Balki, will you ever learn!
07:35 "Salt, Pepper, Diamond"? Why the hell is that suppose to be funny. I wonder if the guy in charge of adding the canned laughter just added to fake yucks randomly because he figured no one would notice... he would of been correct.
09:22 "One of the Turkey's must of swallowed the ring, it's the only thing that makes sense."
10:45 I think Larry's going to kick Balki's ass. It's about time.
13:43 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Secret of the Ooze on VHS for $22.95. There is no part of that sentence I like.
15:01 "Baby Talk" is next. Why god, why?
17:55 This guy wants to know what the "foreign boy" is doing in his home. He must be a republican.
20:04 Larry really needs some Anger Management training.
22:45 Balki just tickled a guy instead of giving him the Heimlich.
26:40 Anyone else see something wrong with a pregnancy test commercial during a show aimed towards teenagers.
30:15 Look Who's Talking just started, er I mean Baby Talk. The theme song enough makes me want to die.
30:48 Scoot Baio... If I stop posting it's because I shot myself.
31:18 This F-Zero ad might soothe me for a while.
34:01 Death, torture, horrible disease.. please, anything other than this!.
35:10 Why does Baio do the voice of the baby as well as star as some annoying ass. Who thought Scott Baio could play two rolls? Who?
37:05 A Sizzler joke! One horrible thing making fun of another. Good, maybe we could bundle all these horrible things and send 'em straight to the evildoers.
38:44 That isn't funny! I don't care when this stupid canned laughter was recorded, they should be ashamed!
43:01 Thank god, a commercial break. I've seen this Pizza Hut Feivel Goes West as about 20 times so far this last hour and
I still prefer it.
45:00 15 mintes to go... I can't make it. I hurt physically.
45:43 Scott Baio's phone is almost as big as Zack Morris'
47:34 I remember once when I was very little my brother dropped a battery on my head and I had to go to the hospital. From now on I'll look back on that moment in my life fondly.
50:13 I bet this kid is in therapy now... or, if it was as much torture for him to record this show as it is for me to watch it, dead.
53:36 I need an aspirin.
55:34 They're breaking the wishbone. I bet they're both wishing for the end of time.
56:00 The show ends on a burp. Really? Who the hell wrote this crap!
57:01 Hey, I remember this Mario commercial... I still don't get it.
57:58 "Stay tuned for 20/20" I didn't back then, and I'm not now.
