Rant – Beavis and Butthead
<Rod flips the channel>
Barry: Hey, leave it there for a minute.
Rod: Why? It’s just an episode of Star Trek that you’ve seen before.
Barry: I know, but I want to show you something. These two characters are more entertaining that Beavis & Butthead.
Rod: Sitting and watching an old spacecraft rust is more entertaining than them.
Barry: Yeah, but watch Spock and McCoy….they would make a perfect comedy team.
Rod: Well, McCoy always gets some good laughs.
Barry: And Spock would be the best straight man in the business.
Rod: You are right about that….let’s check another channel.
<Rod hits the channel button again>
Barry: Now here is another show that seems funny, but it’s like Beavis and Butthead. The characters are all sitting around that bar.
Rod: But at least they seem to be intelligent lifeforms.
Barry: I always like the guy who is the psychiatrist.
Rod: I do too…..he certainly is an intelligent lifeform
Barry: Well, all of folks at that bar have to be.
Rod: Why do you say that?
Barry: Well, the show says that everybody knows your name. You have to have an incredible memory to remember everyone’s name in the world.
Rod: I think it’s time to change channels again.
Barry: Ok
<One more time Rod hit the channel button>
Barry: Now there is a great comedy team.
Rod: Yes they are, but I never understand this routine they are doing
<Voice from the TV> “There’s Who’s on First, What’s on Second, I Don’t Know is on Third…”
Barry: You don’t understand it?
Rod: Yeah. Right at the beginning, he doesn’t tell Costello the name of the guy on First.
Barry: Who?
Rod: The guy on First.
Barry: Who is on First!
Rod: See what I mean…..you never get any answers.
