Speaking of Being the Change...

...I am a media whore. And the LA Daily News Entertainment blogger mentioned my show's new season, starting tonight (Friday) at 9 PST, midnight EST! Channel 560 in the Enn-Why, and whatever the hell it is out in Ell-Ay what-whaaaaat!

Hey, y'know what? Just to save you the effort of clicking I'll repost it here:
A couple of shows for particularly perverse (not to mention somewhat sophomoric) tastes return for new seasons this weekend.

“Uncle Morty’s Dub Shack,” on ImaginAsian TV, is an aggressively stupid (but sometimes in a smart way) comedy in which four slacker buddies provide loopy looping for cheap and cheesy kung-fu movies. It’s kind of a variant on “Mystery Science Theater 3000,” with interstitial storylines and relentless movie-mocking, only here, they insert, as Woody Allen did back in 1966 in “What’s Up, Tiger Lily?”, absurdist dialogue that quite likely has nothing to do with whatever the godforsaken movie was about in the first place. (E.G.: When two guys are playing with a dog, a third instructs them, “Leave Sarah Jessica Parker alone.”)

In Friday’s second-season premiere, the guys embark on a viral marketing campaign to make the word “Diarrhea” mean “awesome” and take some awfully cheap shots at Katie Couric (also involving diarrhea), who, given that epic monument to hagiography that was her final appearance on “Today” on Wednesday, could probably stand to be taken down a peg or 18. “Uncle Morty’s Dub Shack” airs 9 p.m. Friday PCT (midnight EST) on ImaginAsian TV.
Word to yo' mothers.
