The Seasonales
As i walked into the room, he skillfully converted the yawn into a hearty laugh. He was watching "Everybody loves Raymond!". He took a parting shot at me as i walked towards the refrigerator. "Machaan!! THIS is comedy". When i first came to US, a little over three years now, i used to watch a lot of Friends (like the Tom Hanks character in Terminal). I used to watch the 7:00 show and catch the repeat at 11:00 too. My over-the-board enthu put off some of my luke-warm Friends fan friends. Over the years, i grew out of it, moving from one comedy to another.
In the first year, i was naive and wide-eyed (occupational hazzard of having too much beauty around you.Go Penn State!!), i used to watch Friends. Slowly, i moved towards more satirical and less saccharine Seinfeld. The edgy south park, fake news Daily show followed next. When south park originally aired, people couldn't take it apparently. Too gross. Just like the way, i feel about Drawn together? And, yet again, as life changes and new things happen, may be, someday, i will be able to assosciate with "Everybody loves Raymond" :D.
Upnext : Has Pointy really become mature? Or is he just being at his hypocritical best? Find out in The Filthy Hypocrite, upnext :))

Everybody Loves Raymond is a classic..I have finished seeing all episodes of it..Daily show is great to..but I think Tonite Show (Jay Leno) is better..
I cant wait for your next post..gimme a call, if u need some mature material :)))
Btw, Aussies finally showed others their class !
Yeah even I think Raymond is a pretty good series but I think the only series that can be bought on DVD is Seinfeld and I plan on doing so during my India trip, waiting for ur next post let the battle begin
Cmon man write abt pointy
I am completely with you when you talk about Friends. Analyzing that, I find that the screen play is taut and well strung in that, even better than Seinfeld and E.L.R. Only thing is the story line is a chick-flick'ish.
I too am eager to hear about pointy from you...
TV is boring. Yawn.
And I am back :D
