I like the Simpsons.
Why? is it because they got a plug from L'Oss. R?
No.
It's because they're funny.
You know, that thing that keeps us all from committing suicide every day.
Funny.
Also, while we're on the subject of things Good Catholics (TM) are not supposed to like because they're not endless soft-focus programmes of the Rosary and Gregorian Chant sing-alongs...
the Life of Brian was the best movie the Pythons ever made.
I've not seen Brian but other than that spot-on.
ReplyDeleteI never watch EWTN. I acknowledge the good it does but, sorry if this sounds stuck-up, I don't need it and like you say, frankly much of it's not that good television.
I watch 'The Simpsons' and 'Family Guy' every week.
I haven't seen thE SImpsons since the mid-90's when I was in college.
ReplyDeleteFavorite line:
My name is Otto, and I love to get blotto!
Because alcoholism is funny! :-)
I liked Life of Brian ( but preferred the Holy Grail). Though there are a couple scenes where the irreverence in Brian makes me cringe.
ReplyDeleteMalcolm Muggeridge liked it too---the Life of Brian, that is.
ReplyDelete..and his son's favourite movie was The Blues Brothers.
ReplyDeletePop culture is a good thing.
