This Week in Boob Tubery 10/12 -or- Things I watch on TV

The post went over so well last week (at least, I enjoyed it) that I thought I'd make a habit of it.


*New Feature*
Best of the Week

Colbert Report- Not only did I learn that Ohio Congressman and presidential hopefully Dennis Kucinich carries a pocket constitution (I, being a former Ohioan, also carry one. It's a thing we do.), but Colbert also released his new book this week and interviewed himself. If you can't stay up to watch, you should really record it or watch the highlights online.

Rest of the Week

Heroes- Better. The show feels like it's gaining some momentum.

Three Sheets- This one is on the HD network MOJO. Basically, it's a guy who travels all over the world to experience the drinking customs of different cultures. Every episode he's in a different city. He always tries the local drink and usually plenty of others, which leads to him trying the local hangover remedy. It's surprisingly funny, even for the sober crowd. The host is pretty charismatic and they make good use of sound effects. If you have the chance, it's good for a laugh.

Cartoon Network in 3-D!!- It's true. You can watch 3-D episodes of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends and the less exciting Out of Jimmy's Head during the Fried Dynamite block on Cartoon Network tonight at 7p. I hope you have some 3-D glasses of your own. Because Cartoon Network did a terrible job of distributing them.

30 Rock- Pretty hilarious this week. Jack's story delivered the best lines. Will Arnett saying "I'm gonna make your heart explode" in the way only he can, still made me laugh even after hearing it on the promo. If anything, I thought Tiny Fey's story was too small in this episode. Jenna's "Me Want Food" thing took up all her time. I'm surprised NBC actually made shirts to go along with it. Now that's a network with a plan.

The Office- Sure an hour of hilarious office hi jinks sounds good. But I think the Office is better suited for a half-hour. The second half was a little drawn out. I loved Michael calling Angela "booster seat." And it did have a couple of it's genuinely sweet moments, like Andy and the confrence phone quartet.

Jerry Seinfeld's Bee Movie Jr.'s - It pains me to say this, but Jerry, that was TERRIBLE. They were unfunny at best and the idea of catching foreign animators as they enter the country (seemingly illegally) was utterly tasteless. Stick to sitcoms, Jer.
