Is twitter a legit source for information?

I'm not going to go into detail this week since if you listened to the show, then you know what we talked about and if you didn't, I'll just send you to some links and give a list of the topics we discussed.


Here's what was on the rocket docket:
-Talkin' 'bout trash: 16 & Pregnant, Tool Academy 3
-Steve Ward and I (Joellen) are pretty much bffs now. Just kidding. But here's his twitter (can you spot my question?). I'm a shoe-in for the next season after Tough Love Couples.
-@kathygriffin:

"WARNING!!! Gush moment. Taped a D List scene w Kristin Chenoweth. Wow! She knocked my sox off AND she's a Christian who thinks I'M funny!"

-Betty White for SNL!
-Comparing Sookie Stackhouse Series novels to the True Blood series
-Family Guy v. Palins
-Ausiello's list of renewals and cancellations
-Big Bang Theory- Stan Lee guest stars. Nice transition to the comic book show after ours. I'm just so considerate like that.
-Ending "song": Jimmy Fallon's "Bothered with Robert Pattinson" Valentine's Day edition.

That's all for now.
XOXO,
Joellen

We're Not Here To Start No Trouble...

...We're just here to do the Superbowl Shuffle!

This Sunday there was one thing on our minds...Super Bowl Commercials!

There were several ads this year that sparked controversy. The first was Focus on the Family's ad featuring Tim Tebow's mom. This ad was controversial because CBS had never allowed a political advocacy ad before, and this ad featured a pro-life message.

Another controversial ad was for Man-Crunch, a gay dating web-site. The ad was actually banned, and the reason cited was that CBS didn't trust that Man Crunch could afford the ad as they wanted to pay in cash.

Finally, a KGB ad was banned which featured some men with their heads "where the sun don't shine." While the commercial was kind of crude, I personally didn't find it offensive...but you can judge for yourselves here.

We were really looking forward to the return of Nanerpuss for Denny's...but all we got was a screaming chicken...c'est la vie.

Two other ads we were really excited for was the Betty White Snickers ad and the fiddling beaver. All in all, the commercials this year were a little disappointing. Better luck next year!

You can watch all of the ads on hulu.com

Next week we might actually get to our discussion of The Good Wife!

I leave you with a very cute video of a manatee, which Alec Baldwin wants us to save. Well, this manatee and all of his manatee friends.
