Delayed Zach Galifianakis

Here is one of the funnier moments from SNL this season. Zach Galifianakis plays an ambidetxtrous flute player in the shitsandwich of a sketch that’s otherwise known as “What’s Up With That.” What’s up is do yourself a favor and don’t watch the whole thing. Zach doesn’t come in until 3:50. Try watching it from there.

Be Good Johnny Weir Shows The Trashy Side of Figure Skating and I Like It

I’ve been known to turn my sanctimonious nose up when discussing reality TV with people who watch a lot of it. I can’t help but to think that they’re simultaneously rotting their brains and our culture. The people I know, like most people, watch the big shows: Biggest Loser, American Idol, Dancing With the Stars, Jersey [...]

When Conan’s Got Nothing To Lose, Lookout!

Surely the Luddites at Comcast and NBC must have known that a very publicly and humiliatingly firing Conan O’Brien AND THEN letting him keep his show for a while was a mistake. If they wanted to do damage control, they should have Baltimore Colts’d his ass and tore the whole studio down while he [...]

Beavis and Butthead

Maybe it’s just testament to my unsophisticated sense of humor, but I think the old Cornholio episode has held up pretty well. Thanks for taking us back K Tray.

Once In A Very Great While SNL Gets It Right

Last night I was suffering through another hopelessly unfunny episode of perennial TV comedy disappointment Saturday Night Live when finally, as usual, I got to the point where I couldn’t watch anymore. Having the Jonas Brothers certainly made the decision more expeditious than is typical, as well.
Then this morning one of my fellow ad workers [...]

Yuppie Lexicon

I’m probably going to offend a lot of women, and maybe some men with this post, but oh well. I wanted to write about something that invariably nags at me each year, and that’s people’s insistence on adopting a trend despite its insanely high lame-o factor.
At any given time, especially in our fair city, you [...]

Photo of The Day

Update on the story from Smoking Gun, JANUARY 6–In a bizarre incident that will surely lead to litigation (or an out-of-court settlement), a skier at Colorado’s ritzy Vail resort was left dangling upside down and pantsless from a chairlift last Thursday morning. The January 1 mishap apparently occurred after the male skier, 48, and [...]

The Life and Times of Tim

If you’ve not gazed it yet, be sure to check out the new adultish cartoon on HBO, The Life and Times of Tim. The show was created by a former ad guy, as in the one who created the super well known Budweiser lizard campaign back in the late 90s. Not surprisingly, the writing is [...]

Clinton on The Daily Show

Usually John Stewart keeps his guests on their toes with his soft-punch humor and strange analogies. What’s funny in this interview with Bill Clinton is that Clinton’s so far ahead of Stewart’s thought process that he doesn’t even react when Stewart makes a joke. At least that’s my impression.
Hillary should have won the primary and [...]
