Welcome to The Amazing Race Season Finale! So you’re thinking, “What the what? Season Finale? How’d that happen?” Well, Crasstalk went in for some reconstructive surgery, then some guy named bin Laden was killed and that like totally took over the news for at least three days, so here we are at the Season Finale.

Well, now what is this? Little Bran is walking? So all that unpleasantness with him climbing a wall and witnessing two blond full-blooded maniacs rutting like common conjoined wombats didn’t actually happen? And the blondest of the two, and also the one filled with increasing crazy-juice, didn’t just toss the boy out a window like a stale mug of ale? Why no, of course this all happened. It’s just a nice little ploy that many a television show uses to get you to wonder if things are really real, or if everything is just some mystical dream. Sorry, though, Game of Thrones; unless Bobby Ewing appears in a shower I’m not falling for that again. No sir.
Normal recaps are like knitting a sweater: difficult, but rewarding. A “16 and Pregnant” recap is like wading into a septic tank with only leggings and flip-flops on. I take this bullet for you. So let’s see whose septic tank we’re wading into this week! Continue reading
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: A country singer, a gospel singer, a rocker, Alfred E. Newman and a harlot walk into a bar. There they meet an Old Lady named Paula, a Dawg and a woman named Jenny who was just walking around the block and stopped in to ask for directions.

He’s the friend you have to apologize for after the party, but you continue to invite anyways. Here’s a list of the Top 10 TV Assholes; what makes them jerkfaces, dickwads, and tools; and the redeemable qualities that earn them a little place in our hearts. Continue reading
Remember when “South Park” was fairly new? “Daria”? Even “Beavis and Butthead” had its time in the sun. Great shows, right?
Animated sitcoms have been around forever, and some of them were better than others. We can debate all day long over just how much “The Simpsons” has gone downhill, but some shows never even got the chance to jump the animated shark.

Hi kids. Let’s see how video works on our new site. Get some Cheerios and pull up a pillow. Please let us know if you have any problems on the site and please be quiet because Mom and Dads really need to sleep in today.
Welcome, everyone, to the increasingly dysfunctional world of “16 and Pregnant.” I don’t recommend you watch the actual show if you have high blood pressure or a soul. Thankfully, I have neither and I’m here to tell you what happened and ask the pertinent hypothetical questions.
This week, we had Jennifer Del Rio, of Tampa, who is a 16-year-old sophomore in high school. She’s expecting twins. I think that’s super. I think having not one, but two, babies before you’re old enough to buy alcohol to drink in the closet while the kids cry it out is a neat idea.
