The Simpsons "Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind"

Episode 409 of the longest running tv animated sitcom (bla bla) The Simpsons, woohoo!. Coming out (where?Live!) on FOX, teh internetz, trough illegal alien torrents and other gibberish.
The numnut we call Homer is on for another homaventure in this future Simpsons classic. There is a reason Homer Jay Simpson is right next to Homer the ancient Greek author of "Iliad and the Odyssey"and that`s because he is even more popular but proportionally dumber, in this next episode he will wake up in the snow with no memory of the day before, when he goes home he realizes that Marge and the kids are gone, his brain makes a huge effort in the attempt of remembering the day step by step, Good Luck Homer!

King of The Hill "The Minh Who Knew Too Much"

Even though I`m not that much into King of The Hill because i think the overall graphics are poor, well, not exactly poor but not my type, other categories of sitcom fans would like it, especially the oldchool Beavis and Butt-Head fans, or at least, so i think.
So if you find yourself desperate for something else now that there are`nt any other animated sitcoms to view, King of the Hill is a good choice being one of the longest running.

"The Souphanousinphone’s formulate a plan to gain entrée to the Nine Rivers Country Club by having Minh accepted on its skeet shooting team."

American Dad "Frannie 911"

Looks like Seth MacFarlane`s new Family Guy-like show will reach a total of 50 episodes including the one that will be aired in the upcoming weekend. I`m guessing American Dad is worth watching now that Family Guy is in hiatus (i think) or something related to the writer`s strike.
Looks like in the next episode Stan will have a fight with Roger, the charismatic alien that loves to dress up and Francine comes up with a plan to reunite them (what kind of name is Francine? Sounds like a cookie).

American Dad "Surro-Gate"

Even though we have no Simpsons or Family Guy this weekend we still have American Dad`s episode 307 "Surro-Gate".
In this episode Stan will face one of the things he fears the most, his wife, Francine will become a surrogate for a gay couple, as sick as that may sound only an CIA agent like Stan will be able to deal with this kind of situation.
So don`t miss this one.

SouthPark "Christmas Time in South Park" DVD

Although this DVD is out there for a while now, what better time to talk about it than now when Christmas is getting closer and we have no Family Guy or Simpsons this weekend, i don`t know why exactly, hope it`s not related to the Writer`s Strike.
The "Christmas Time in South Park" is something nobody should miss and couldn`t be better to give to someone new in South Park as a gift, this dvd is a compilation of Christmas specials, the episodes featured on this DVD include "Mr Hankey, the Christmas Poo", "Christmas Time in Hell" and two more. Enjoy.

The Simpsons "Funeral for a Friend"

This weekend we`re in for a treat with this new The Simpsons episode entitled Funeral for a Friend (with no connection with the band as far as i know) that will make the Sideshow Bob fans very happy, mostly the ones who were disappointed with his absence in The Simpsons:Movie.
Sideshow Bob once again lures Bart and his family into his mastermind hoax consisting in Marge dreaming up that she should fast-forward trough TV ads and finally the Simpsons family take interest in an ad for some restaurant where, of course, Sideshow Bob is waiting, waiting to kill Bart.Things don`t work out for Bob as they never have but this time Sideshow Bob could be done for.
This episode has a nice guest star list consisting of: Kelsey Grammer, David Hyde Pierce and John Mahoney.

Family Guy "Peter's Daughter"

For me the weekend means Family Guy, Simpsons, American Dad and any other sitcoms that air in weekends (i think King of The Hill swell) so i should write more often about upcoming episodes.
The next episode in Family Guy season six is "Peter`s Daughter" which obviously is Meg who starts getting a lot of respect from Peter after she was hurt in an accident, this one should be funny, even funnier than the 100Th episode special and "Stewie Kills Lois" because Meg never got respect from anyone in the family, not even from Lois.

SouthPark "The List" Deleted Scene

I was rather happy to see some new SouthPark content even though season eleven has come to an end, here we are with an deleted scene (Alternate ending) of last week`s episode "The List" featuring the fourth grade girls and their list rating every boy in class from cutest to ugliest, the alternate ending clip contains the real un-modiefied list.
Also we have a high resolution image of the one you can see on the left right here. Until season 12 i can only hope more content or SouthPark related news come up.

SouthPark "Guitar Queer-o"

Now that the Imaginationland episodes have come to an end it`s time for new hilarious SouthPark episodes, with two more this season this new one seems rather very interesting.
As everybody knows Guitar Hero is a very popular game for people who like to play guitar by pressing a bunch of buttons instead of the good old fashion finger fretting and picking or strumming strings. So anyhow in this all new SouthPark episode Stan and Kyle get hooked up on Guitar Hero but it seems that Stan`s incredible "guitar" skills are no match for Kyle`s, fact that could jeopardise their friendship. Don`t know if this one will be better than "Make Love Not Warcraft" but definitely worth watching for a nice laugh.

Lucy, The Daughter of The Devil

.:La Figlia Del Diavolo:.

"Lucy, The Daughter of the Devil" is a 3D animated TV show part of Adult Swim on Cartoon Network about the daughter of the devil. She is 21, lives in San Francisco and always criticized about her weight, and of course, she must fulfill her destiny as the Antichrist to make her dad, Satan, proud.

Too bad though the number one enemy of Satan who was supposed to be dead rises as the local DJ Jesus (pronounced Hesús) and Lucy develops a crush on him, to Satan`s dismay. The adventures that Lucy, Satan, Becky The Devil`s advocate, and Jesus go trough will surely make you say this show is fucked up in a funny way.

So the Vatican couldn't just watch and on the trail of the
Antichrist they send a team of "action-heroes" called The Special Fathers and The homicidal Special Sister. With animation reminding of the sitcom game Grim Fandango, Satan with lame sweaters, Jesus with rising DJing fame and Lucy the non-conformist average-American girl will surely get you hooked up on this one.

Family Guy 100th Episode Special

Family Guy: A bit of history
Since it`s first air in 1999 Family Guy went trough a lot, it was canceled two times but FOX decided to continue it after the huge numbers of fans watching the reruns on Cartoon Network`s Adult Swim. Pretty much what happened to Matt Groening`s Futurama, to return somewhere around 2008.
After it`s comeback on FOX the show released a feature-length movie and now it`s currently in season 6.
The 100th episode anniversary
The psychological barrier of the number 100 will be passed this Sunday with a great Flashback episode and the "Stewie Kills Lois" episode, that unfortunately leaked on p2p in a nearly complete release. Anyway the episode will/is great and will make a lot of people happy who missed Stewie`s masterplans, only this time he will try to kill his Mum whatever it takes.

SouthPark "Imaginationland" synopsis

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS
Now that the longest running multi-part episode of SouthPark is out i think it would be fair to talk about the whole story of the Imaginationland episodes.
It all started with Cartman and his leprechaun and the contract with Kyle that said if the leprechaun is real Kyle will have to suck Eric`s balls, finally the leprechaun makes it`s appearance to Kyle`s surprise and warns them that a terrible thing is going to happen, so it happens that the mayor of Imaginationland comes to the boys and takes them to Imaginationland, the place where everything ever imagined comes to life, and then, just like that, terrorists begin their attack on the imagination and try to free the evil imagination forces separated only by a wall, as the leprechaun warned, on an attempt to make an escape Butters is left for dead and used as a tool to send a message to the world from the terrorists. Cartman goes to trial with Kyle and the judge agrees that Kyle has to suck his balls, the government brings up their ImaginationGate and conclude that they should nuke but then the council of nine puts on a plan to defeat the evil forces, the council consisting of Jesus, Luke Skywalker, Gandalf, Popeye and more including that Asshole talking lion from Narnia.

Anyway Butters becomes the chosen one and the epic battle between good and evil is won yet again by the good but the imagination still gets nuked but re-imagined by Butters. Oh! And Kyle sucks Cartman`s balls but not how you would expect, but that`s for you to discover. This one is a great episode, and if you can get it now it would be worth it.

SouthPark Imaginationland 3/3 of season 11

As i did last week, and i will every week South Park is on, i will make a short preview of the upcoming kick-ass South Park episodes.
Right, so last week`s episode two of the three part episode "Imaginationland" left us with an interesting cliffhanger and with enough past episode (ManBearPig) references to laugh at all summer, i mean winter... autumn damn it!
So the Pentagon used it`s "Stargate" to blow it up as usual by sending a team led by Kurt Russell in the Imaginationland, now after Al Gore`s creature made some damage Stan ends up in Imaginationland while Kyle was left unconscious and saved miraculously by Cartman, showing a lot of emotion from his side but with the one purpose of... Kyle sucking his balls.
So finally to my point, in this episode AL Gore is back on the trail of ManBearPig, Stan stands shoulder to shoulder with Butters to fight back the evil forces of the Decepticon...err imagination, including classics like the Clones from star wars, Freddy Krueger and the most fearsome of all The Woodland Creatures imagined by Cartman himself. And last but not least Cartman will do whatever it takes to make Kyle stand up to his contract.

The Simpsons: GAME

After the 20 year wait for The Simpsons: MOVIE, Matt Groening`s animated sitcom is not standing by waiting another 20 years. The Simpsons Game will be hitting all major and portable consoles at the end of this month (Oct 30Th), yes, you heard me, CONSOLES.
That sucks, but what can we do, we can only hope that by some miracle PC users will be able to play it, anyway this game seems to be a good enough reason for some to buy the new psp or even Nintendo`s Wii.
I think we all remember Simpsons Hit`n`run game that was sort of an Grand Theft Auto parody, well this time we have epic parodies of games and other things, such as Medal Of Homer (Medal of Honor), Neverquest (Everquest) and the list can go on, from the trailers on the EA website I can say the game looks pretty fun and the graphics are perfect for this type of game.
With the movie, game and the new season 19 the Simpsons look fresh and still the longest running animated series. This makes me think of Bart`s chalkboard writing "I will not wait 20 years for another movie" in S19 episode 1 and Maggie`s first word "Sequel".

Sitcom Overview: American Dad

I must bore you people (readers) with just one more entry on this category, the last one for this week at least. But make no mistake, as inocent as cartoons were at their origins (even though we all know the myths surrounding Disney) American Dad is not inocent, not for kids, and not so sure i`d show this to old people either.

American Dad is created by Seth MacFarlane the same dude that made Family Guy, well it`s obvious since we have strong connections between the two, for example instead of the sarcastic, alcoholic, talking intelectual dog Brian from Family Guy we get a 2in1, a talking semi-fascist german goldfish Klaus and an amazing character-wise alien Roger, nothing special apart from being saved from Area51 this alien has an drinking obsession, semi-genius ideas that start good and end up very bad, numerous disguises and huge history of his own.
Then we have Peter Griffins omologue Stan Smith, appart from his john doe name he is ultra-conservative republican weapons specialist CIA agent and above all that, still, he is a total moron, his actions can only be compared to Eric Carman`s at best, how he got involved with an charming woman like Francine is a mistery but that sounds like a sitcom stereotype. Like that`s not enough we get classic characters like Stan`s doughter the kind-of-hippie girl Hayley and her brother the geek with an boob obsession Steve.
American Dad has been going for 2 seaons now and it started it`s third, it`s the kind of show american patriots laugh at but prolly don`t get the inside jokes, the show`s characters are not much to talk about, references to Family Guy at every minute but still fresh and worth a watch.
