HOT LESBIAN ACTION!!!

Zing! I zinged them.

I mean, what the hell is this shit? Father of the Pride? For one, you never want a TV show whose title is based off of another TV show or movie. You know, like Father of the Bride. I mean, yeah, it's a phrase too, but everyone's thinking about that movie when they hear the title of the show. Two: gyah! I mean, it's a show about lions... that work... for Siegfried and Roy. That's your gimmick? That's the best you could do? Oh yeah, that concept was long overdue. Finally, a show for the common folk! I guess they finally got my letters.

I was being sarcastic.

Also, everyone looks ugly in the show. Especially the women. The woman TIGERS. When will they learn that I do not want to see tigers that resemble women. Do you know how disturbing that is? I know sex sells, guy, but it doesn't work, going, "Yes these tigers should be SEXIER. We must appeal to the 18-25 audience!" Right. Because we love watching tigers DOING IT.

Also, why do they choose to present their, theoretically, adult comedy in the form of computer animation? I mean, there's nothing intrinsically wrong with the format, I kind of like it in fact. But just think about this: when was the last time a computer animated TV show was successful? That's right, never. Except, maybe Beast Wars. But that's because they had a very tight writing staff. Well, that's what I wrote in my review at least, when I was nine.

And Reboot was a great show too. But that's another show meant basically for younger audiences. It wasn't a prime-time sitcom.

I mean, think about the animated shows that have succeeded. The Simpsons, King of the Hill (perhaps a cosmic error, but a valid example), Futurama (which is no longer on but lasted a respectable five seasons), Family Guy (which was canceled after only three seasons but has found such success post mortem that it may return to the air). I mean, come on! Even Beevis and Butthead and Ren and Stimpy could be considered here. And who could forget our friend of young children and teenagers with short attention spans, Spongebob Squarepants? I know I can't. Ha ha! He is stupid!

Oh yeah, and what else? South Park. Yeah.

Now, let's look at the CGI shows we've seen over the years: The PJs (I don't know how long that lasted, but it wasn't very long), the abominable Game Over which lasted about two episodes, and... well I don't know what else. But they sucked too. And they all died. That's why I don't remember what they are.

But people like traditional animation, even though CGI movies have been a lot more successful than traditionally animated ones at the box office recently.

Traditional animation is good for the TV: it's clean-cut and easy on the eye, and it allows for very recognizable, clearly defined characters.

Okay, look, that's all I'm going to say about FoP tonight and animated sitcoms in general.

Oh, and don't expect a crazy spike in my hits for a while (see earlier posts for more about this) because it usually takes close to a month for search engines to completely scan the internet for changes made to web pages. So the old title will probably show up in searches for a few weeks, yet. Hang in there.

Oh, and that reminds me. I'm leaving for Italy on Thursday, and that should be cool for me. But not for you, my pets. Alas, I won't have my own laptop while we tour around the Continent, so I won't be able to post regularly, or at all, for the next five weeks. Europe is so backwards that way. No personal laptops for travelers? Pshaw, child. Maybe I'll be able to send one out from a cybercafe, maybe not. Okay, bye.

Or maybe I'll write again within the next two days. But maybe I won't.

That's why I'm so mysterious: I'm completely unreliable!
