What Won TV? – November 10-November 16, 2013

Leave a comment

In this feature, I look back at each day of the past week and determine what shows “won TV” for the night. That is, I consider every episode of television I watched that aired on a particular day and declare which was the best.

Sunday – Bob’s Burgers
Monday – How I Met Your Mother
Tuesday – Brookyln Nine-Nine
Wednesday – Key & Peele – is this the best show of 2013?
Thursday – Scandal – was this show always this much like Alias?
Friday – Comedy Bang! Bang! – is this the best show of 2013?
Saturday – Saturday Night Live

Death, please.

CBC News Toronto
I haven’t been following the Rob Ford circus very closely, so I don’t know how much this sketch was referring to actual moments or not.  Either way, it all felt rather perfunctory.  Where this sketch succeeded was when it fully embraced cheesy “Canadian” humor (a Boxing Day ham), which I guess is acceptable, because Rob Ford’s accent is about as thick as a Canuck’s can get. B-

Lady GaGa’s Monologue
Did they want it to be that obvious how fake the audience interactions were, even considering that it was cast members playing the audience? C+

The Collected Madness of Alex Trebek, Volume 9

Leave a comment

Alex Trebek is starting to lose it, and as a public service, I will be posting all the evidence of his insanity.

38. Metallica made a whopper of a deal when it paid over $3 billion to switch genders & become the one-armed female peacock

39. Justin Bieber was struck by Selena Gomez’ Muslim dwarf carpenter but recovered and drooled in her older brother’s bikini. Bon appetit!

40. Forget about Benghazi, the White House says 66% of its customers are boisterous, violent, Russian, redneck f-holes who fight off Jewish vampires by arousing Napoleon’s 12″ man-hammer

41. To show remorse after murdering his wife, Chris Brown has merged with al-Qaida to develop this kids’ game where you wear a blindfold & drive a car with Darth Vader’s divorce papers from New York to San Francisco
