Television, the Drug of the Nation

One of the best parts of working in television is seeing bloopers. That being said, one of the worst parts of producing television, is seeing bloopers.

The Way it is

I've been doin' television for a long time. And do you know what the funniest part of this George Carlin riff is? At one time or another I've used every single one of these words and phrases. True story. We miss you George!!!!

As a rule, we don’t talk much about television ‘round here because…


FULL DISCLOSURE: Every time you watch television, we here at PTB make one MILLION dollars…


But last week, Saudi Arabia's top judiciary official issued a religious decree saying it is permissible to kill owners of satellite TV networks that broadcast “immoral” content because it causes the "deviance of thousands of people.” WOW…that’s some heavy guilt there. We knew television had influence on people but we had no idea it had that kinda pull.


The crux of today’s biscuit is twofold…


Saudi Arabia is George W. Bush’s closest ally and bestest friend. Now, Chimp-Dick has said time and time again that America will not tolerate oppressive regimes. That’s one of the (later) reasons he gave us for invading Iraq. So, how come WPE is willing to break our army by invading Mesopotamia and he licks the sweat off the nut sacks of Saudi Arabian leaders? It’s called being a hypocrite and anyone who doesn’t see that is either dumber than a bag of doorknobs or so far right that they make Karl Rove look like Teddy Kennedy.


Secondly…do you really think the Saudi royal family turns off the television when the Sopranos comes on? No. Fact of the matter is, those BSC motherhubbards watch Desperate Housewives, Weeds, Big Love , American Idol and all the other “immoral” shows out there in the comfort and privacy of their palaces while they down 40’s and smoke the “O”. Meanwhile, the unwashed masses don’t even have enough money to piss in a pot.


Control what people read, control what they see on television, control what they hear on the radio and they won’t realize what assholes y’all are. Saudi Arabia may be pResident Bush’s paramour but we know they’re just another bass-ackward third-world country, keepin’ down the little guy and living to excess. It’s what the Shah of Iran did the same thing and look what happened to him!

Television...The Drug Of The Nation

These buzz-kills just came out with a study that says that parents are worried about their kids' exposure to sex and violence in the media.

(Full disclosure: We here at PTB make ONE MILLION DOLLARS every single time you turn on your television.)

Listen up 'rents...rather than getting the government cheese to censor the content of TV shows...do us all a favor and BE PARENTS! That's your job!

If little Bobby goes BSC it isn't television's fault...

you can't blame it on video games...

or rap music either. It's all on you.

We keep saying it...you need a license to fish, you need a license for your dog, or to open a business...but anyone with one of these can be a parent...understand your responsibilities or keep your pecker in your pants!
