Plus ça Channel change #5, plus c'est les Show Mêmes


Pilots/DVD compilations I'd like to see:

Peak-Carson reruns: That 70s Tonight Show

Weekend garage attendant: Saturday in the Car Park

Noah rescuing fish on weekends: Saturday in the Carp Ark

Housemates: affable pipe-puffing father in cardigan, Moe-cut cranky uncle in kitchen, trio of brothers - two seeking sex changes and one pretending to be straight, accident-prone and a chef, all depicted during cartoon closing credits from the knees down and sporting flamingly diverse pairs of high heels (not that there's anything comfortable about that): My Three's Company Sons

"Questioning" midshipman: A Port in Every Man 

(Reality) Teen fathers: Minor Dad

(Reality, housemates) Army women hiding first their pregnancies under their camo-soles, their deliveries under their weekend leaves, and then their children under their bunks, until either high school or discharge: Private Mom

(Bloopers, superheroes) DC's and Marvel's finest find their most intimate moments, from those first fumblings on the home planet fogging up the rumble seat of Jor-El's jalopy with heavy breaths of vaporized titanium, to that third-wedding night in the fourth dimension, interrupted by calls to neutralize, e.g., Earth spinning off its axis, impending collisions with asteroids, and invaders from the planet Mars: Stop the Worlds, We Want to Get Off!

(UPA/Hanna-Barbera co-production) Mr. Magoo in Volunteer-Senior program as dog-walker to teenaged detectives, challenged, with Glad Bag-gloved hand, in attempted obeying of scooper laws: Scooby-Doo Doo-Doo, Where Are You?

(Lutheran animated wooden dolls) Pious boy with tiny mouth teaches lessons in brotherly love with aid of bashful-voiced talking dog in thrall to insatiable appetite for human flesh: Davey and Moloch

Newly-rich Ozark-family speed dealers move west: The Beverly Pillbillies

Suburban wife-killer: I Buried Joan

Mom and Dad bicker over fixing up - and, in desperation during a Very Special Episode, "fixing" - Babs, their little lesbian Princess: Leave Her to Beaver. "Edgy" theme tune with hoarsely-whistling Melissa Etheridge becomes college-radio novelty hit.

(Cartoon) Migrant worker answers Kinsey survey, recalls lonely adolescence passed in finding furtive solace among the tabbies kept by the campetheenoth :  José and the Cat Pussies

Bon of   the Vanity Fair s Below, 63 pieces of candy from  Cond é  (Nast)  c. 1914-1936, largely  Vanity  Fair  covers with a few early  Vogue  and  House and Garden  numbers as well.  The lush hermetic aestheticism of the 1910s, in all its ritual harlequinade, peacockery, stained-glass Tiffany washes of chromatic incandescence, sinuous Art Nouveau curves, flourishes of  Japoniste  exotica, and cameos out of C18 France, gave way over the postwar years to ongoing eruptions into the garden party of the social and artistic earthquakes and flashes of heat lightning outside, in the forms of boxy geometric modernism, burly big-shouldered industrialism, social satire and, into the 1930s, the lengthening shadows of Depression, the multiple risings of Eurasian fascism, and prophetic glimpses of the total-war reprise of 1914-1918 to come three years after the 1936 folding of  Vanity  Fair . Owing to louche and ...

Feral Burro of Instigation, or, 2025 Mules: a Judah Spree de l'Escalier, scarring Kash Ankeri, the Newest Dal/Reaction Figure from Patel®

David French: "[FBI pick Kash] Patel is so absurdly devoted to [45/47] that he wrote a children's book about him called 'The Plot Against the King,' in which he describes the Russia investigation as a plot by 'Hillary Queenton' against 'King Donald.' "In December 2023, he told [45's] former adviser Steve Bannon, 'We're going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections.' "'We're going to come after you,' he continued, 'whether it's criminally or civilly. We'll figure that out.'" https://www.nytimes.com/live/ 2024/11/26/opinion/thepoint/ patel-trump-fbi-loyalty?smid= url-share Announcer: Hello, and welcome to this week's episode of "Ol' Jeez an' New Deez," a lighthearted interfaith interface that attempts to discern the ways, if any, in which those claiming to be disciples of our co-host - Jeez, not De...

The White for the Race House 2020, or, It's Right for Everyone, Idiot

American politics 2020, as ever: watching 10 million ants, each the ant equivalent of a 98-pound man, each bravely Donning the mask of a mighty warrior while clad down below in adult diapers, pretending to engage in a life-or-death fight to the finish over the world's biggest pile of shit. To take it with anything other than the world's most deafening Bronx cheer, or total indifference, would be to sin against, according to taste, either g-d, or one's divine self - or both .
