Holy Crap TV

I watched TV today for the first time in a long time, and it turns out I picked a pretty good day. I went downstairs to get breakfast today a little before 2000 (I’ve changed my sleep schedule around a lot) and got a bowl of cereal, then sat down to watch tv. What? The Daily Show? Its a rerun right?

Lo and behold, the opening animation introduced it as January 7th, 2008 (rebroadcast of last night’s show)! Somehow, no one told me about this. Last night, probably around the same time this episode was airing for the first time, I was complaining about how I missed the Daily Show. Although, until the writers return, they’ll be broadcasting as ‘A Daily Show with Jon Stewart.’

The Colbert Report took a similar change in title, abandoning the French pronounciation of the show for the American pronounciation, complete with T’s. But then, after these two shows which I missed so dearly, what come on next? Futurama! And then South Park! Hot damn, Comedy Central came out swinging.

All We Gotta Do Is…

So, I saw a bit of SNL a week or so ago, and it was the first time in a long time I had actually seen a new episode. I was actually really impressed. Hugh Laurie (of House) was hosting, Beck was the musical guest, and Borat showed up for some reason. Hugh Laurie performed a song at one point which was by far the highlight of what I saw. I can’t find a copy of YouTube that hasn’t been removed, but here is one from MySpace:

War against my mind

I’ve spent most of today trying to think as little as possible. So far, so good.
I’ve watched several movies on TV and I, Robot which we rented on DVD. This, and making myself a bowl of ice cream have been the only things I’ve done today. Seriously.

Later tonite FOX has an hour long Simpson’s episode and new Family Guy (which I’m a bit confused about, since the previews show one different than the one leaked online), but that should ensure that I wouldn’t even consider attempting to think.
