OMG TV: Mr. T for Secretary of Defense

Posted by Jeff in , , , , , , , , , ,

8:00 – Rocky III (AMC)

Announcement from AMC: In light of yesterday’s historic election results, the end Rocky III has been reedited to let Mr. T win.  That is all.

10:00 – South Park (Comedy Central)

Matt and Trey chime in with some election humor.  Election humor?  That is so yesterday.  And the 700 days before it.  New national meme: hobo humor.  (Side note: Gawker runs down some of South Park‘s past forays into Doonesbury territory.)

10:30 – Chocolate News (Comedy Central)

Giving David Alan Grier’s show another week isn’t just compassionate charity, it’s an investment.  Because if we keep watching, it has to get better, right?  Right?

Late Night

Tom Brokaw calls the election on Letterman, Samuel L. Jackson yells a lot on Leno, Dennis Hopper has an acid flashack on Conan, Fox News flack Chris Wallace flacks on the Daily Show, Ambassador Andrew Young retains his title despite not being an ambassador since the gosh darn seventies on Colbert.

OMG TV: Order your smoking jacket now

Hef Dummies 8:00 – True Hollywood Story: Hugh Hefner (E!)

Consider this a “how to” guide to becoming the coolest dude in the world.

10:00 – Project Runway (Bravo)

We’ll admit it: we’ve caught the odd episode of Project Runway.  It’s pretty good if you hit mute whenever Heidi Klum starts to talk, and it even falls into our favorite category of reality shows, “Intelligent Skilled Contestants” (as opposed to the more commonplace “Dumb Fucking Contestants”). Anyways, tonight’s the season finale, so the fashion stakes will be even more fashion stakesier.

10:30 - Reno 911! (Comedy Central)

Another season finale – the Sheriff’s Department gets involved with building a border fence.  Nuff said.

Late Night

Dennis Hopper, senile and lost, wanders aimlessly onto Ferguson.  Stewart has reporter Martin Fletcher, Colbert’s got author Gregory Rodriguez.
