Let’s cut right to the chase: Jay Leno sucks and NBC is really desperate. So by all means, give him five hours a week during prime-time.

Let’s get this fat clown show on the road:

9:53 – Change channel to “Family Guy” rerun on channel with screwed up image and sound because it’s  less annoying

10:00 – WOW THE TITLES! It’s like a barrage of 1995

10:01 – Jay Leno throws Cheez-Its on the ground, audience rushes stage

10:02 – It’s like watching a fat 1970′s Italian film actor do stand up. WISH THEY OVER-DUBBED A LESS ANNOYING VOICE (more…)

This summer has marked the passing of two cable network institutions: the Sci Fi Channel and Cartoon Network.
