Free Speech in Venezuela

Sunday Night TV Line Up !!

Ah, another judgement day.

Bob & Doug MacKenzie…
30 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Why did they make this?

The Simpsons…
Parts of the house they have never found? After 5 waterheaters, just now?
Fire breathing Homer.
"Big and yellow and I'm servin' Jello". I smiled. Does that count.
2 out of 10.

Sit Down. Shut Up…
Is this all the creativity that's left in the world?
Kind of half-way point between the Simpsons and Family Guy too. I guess it's time slot was based on the "raunch" factor.

"Miracle's aren't real?"
Oh wait, we can just rehash ideas from old movies too, like fortune telling machines.
Some good stuff. Funnier than the Simpsons so, 3.5 out of 10.

Family Guy…
Performance enhancing drugs for babies. Need I say more?
"All that matters is you beat the Leprechauns…"
The Guy with one Leg… funny!
Not bad - 5 out of 10.

American Dad
"If I have one more piece of Vomit Pie, I'm going to pumpkin." - Roger the Alien
Another entertaining episode with a happy ending - 7.5 out of 10.
