With a Safety Inspector like Homer Simpson, it’s no wonder that Springfield Nuclear Power Plant has so many safety violations. And in light the tragedy in Japan, TV networks from around the world are screening Simpsons episodes for any objectionable content. The Austrian network ORF has already pulled Episode 66, “Marge Gets a Job” in which scientists Marie Curie and Pierre Curie die of radiation poisoning and Episode 346, “On
Virtual girlfriend/life coach Hinako is back with loads of fanservice in Bathtime with Hinako & Hiyoko. Hinako does various stretches in the tub but even after she reluctantly lets the camera see-through the side of the tub in order to reveal the proper form, it’s still pretty dull. That’s probably why they’ve introduced a new character, Hiyoko. Despite her age it’s clear that Hiyoko’s the one in charge. Regardless of

Entertainment Weekly’s Keith Staskiewicz gave Bob’s Burgers an “A-” noting “To see a comedy this well done is very rare indeed.” But his review is as rotten as the fart jokes that pass for humor on the show. Anyone who tells you different has been paid off. It’s quite possibly the worst cartoon I’ve ever seen (or heard). Bob Belcher (H Jon Benjamin) runs a Burger joint between a funeral
This February NewSouth Books will publish censored versions of “Huckleberry Finn” and “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” that substitute racial epithets like “nigger” “injun” and “half-breed” with “slave” “Indian” and “half-blood” respectively. An introduction by Auburn University professor Alan Gribben contends that “even at the level of college and graduate school, students are capable of resenting textual encounters with this racial appellative.” While children do not even have the opportunity
When the Griffin house loses power (yet again) the characters reluctantly perform another Star Wars parody. The opening crawl warns you to “lower your expectations” explaining that they “ran out of gas” after the first two movies but Fox forced them to make another. It’s not just self-deprecating humor, it’s also a subtle dig at Star Wars Episode VI itself. The rest of the movie isn’t so subtle. No one
The Simpsons celebrated Christmas early this year, maybe that’s why it was so hot. The live-action episode titled “The Fight Before Christmas” featured the Simpsons as puppets and guest starred Katy Perry as Moe’s girlfriend.

In the South Park season finale “Creme Fraiche” Sharon tries out the newest model of the Shake Weight. If you thought the original was perverted you ain’t seen nothing yet. The voice assist model shouts motivational words like harder and faster. When your workout is finished it releases a cool down spray. After which, it dispenses cab fare and goes into sleep mode. It turns out the Shake Weight is
Fox’s Animation Domination celebrated the true meaning of Halloween this year. On the Cleveland Show “It’s the Great Pancake, Cleveland Brown” Junior’s dad explains that he’s too old to dress up for Halloween but that it’s okay for his sister because “Everybody knows Halloween is just a free pass for teenage girls to dress like sluts.” American Dad suited up too in “Best Little Horror House in Langley Fall.” Unfortunately,
South Park has to do the unthinkable and enlist the aid of Al Qaeda when an even worse threat washes up in town: the cast of Jersey Shore! But it’s not just Snooki and the Situation who are portrayed as orange faced jerks that always want to fight or fuck, it’s all Jerseyans. The boisterous bunch insists they don’t mean any harm and declare, “It’s a Jersey thing.” As an
Contrary to the movies in which Tony Stark was adamantly against mass producing Iron Man, in the new anime series he announces he will retire with the introduction of a new production model called Dio, which works out about as well as it did in Iron Man 2. Except for that one oversight, he’s still the same peace loving playboy. Tony’s ultimate goal is to supply the world with free
If you thought climate change was some distant problem that doesn’t affect you, think again. A PSA, by director Richard Curtis, asks a class of children to raise their hands if they plan to participate in the 10:10 campaign to reduce their carbon emissions by 10% starting on 10-10-10, those who don’t get blown up! Even the commercial’s narrator, Gillian Anderson, isn’t safe. When she naively suggests that lending her voice
As if the original scene in which Takashi uses his girlfriend’s breasts as shock absorbers for his rifle didn’t have enough fanservice, the anime adaptation of Highschool of the Dead adds the slow motion effect known as “Bullet Time” (popularized in the Matrix). While simultaneously fighting zombies, Saeko uses the Neo limbo to dodge bullets that fly between her legs and breasts. Fortunately for Saeko, her bouncing breasts are faster
