Always Look on the Bright Side of Life...

(whistles)

Some cool things to be happy about...

-Another 22 episodes of Family Guy have been ordered (according to PlanetFamilyGuy.com). That's in addition to the 35 Fox initially ordered, bringing the total number of guaranteed new shows up to 57. For those who haven't kept track, the entire original run of the show was only 50 episodes, so we've already doubled the total. Absolutely amazing. Not only that, but the show continues to thrive on a quality level, too - last night's episode was the best yet, with Peter's emerging stupidity, a classic Stewie line, and the wild firetrucks of the African plains. Truly bizarre and hilarious.

-Also, add another 13 episodes of American Dad to the order, bringing the guaranteed total up to 32. And that show, too, continues to grow and get better as it goes along, lacing in hilarious political satire in with its truly bizarre main storylines (where else can you see an alien's reproductive lactations used in a recipe for potato salad?) is making for a rapidly improving show. This is turning into one can't-miss hour of comedy.

-Plenty of leftovers from yesterday's Father's Day promotion meaning that I now have my own wicked cool Darth Vader "Who's Your Daddy?" poster. Yee haw!

-I splurged, I admit it. But 140 bucks later, Frasier is on its way! All six available seasons! Bring it on, USPS!

-Lindsey is in town! I'm seeing her tomorrow! Yay!!!!!

-Did I mention Batman Begins kicks @$$? I did? Well, it's worth repeating. See it, darn it!

And by the way, those who wanna see the very definition of a class act - just click here.

I'm also getting kinda hooked on American Dad. One thing I keep coming back to is how the show is a ripping satire of the current political climate, which can be traced back to 9/11. . .which Seth McFarlane narrowly survived by being late for his plane. Not sure where the story in there is, but I know there is one.
