I just got done watching this past Saturday’s SNL hosted by Seth Rogan (aka dude from Knocked Up) and I have to admit, after last week’s great episode with Labron James, this show totally tanked.

Just absolutely horrible.

The only part that made it worth watching was Chevy Chase’s return for a skit on the 08′ Presidential Election and the spoof of Fred Thompson. Those seemed well written and on-point. Everything else was just crap.

I was on the train back from Milwaukee tonight and about halfway through the trip these two little kids came up to me. A brother and sister who I would guess to be about 6-8 in age.

And, as I was working on my laptop and listening to my new iPod Classic, they started staring at me. And yelling at me. And yelling, and yelling, and yelling. And their mother did NOTHING. Everyone else on the train was looking at me to see what they were yelling about and I just shruged my shoulders and kept to myself. I glanced over every once in awhile to see what was going on and their eyes met mine.

For the entire ride.

At some point the younger girl must have tripped over something and started crying. I didn’t feel bad.

I am watching the new TV show Pushing Daisies now. And all I can think, past “This is really entertaining,” is… “This looks exactly like Director/Writer Tim Burton’s Big Fish and Edward Scissorhands”

Big bright colors and sets added onto a very “bright” soundtrack… Cute and entertaining. Romantic and sweeping. Long shots of big bright fields and CGI that is straight out of a cartoon.

But it is really, really, REALLY good. The story is great and the cast choice was PERFECT. Out of five stars I am going to give it a 4.5 . I would give it a 5, but nobody can be as good as Tim Burton.

I was just watching Cavemen and I have to say.

That show really sucks.

I’m not saying that it wasn’t entertaining… It had its moments…

But it won’t be on for long.

Someone in the dining hall was having a conversation while I was putting my tray away and my ears perked up when I heard him say “madness.”

Under my breath I said
“Madness? THIS IS SPARTA!!!!”

I think they heard me
