“My Name Is Earl”: Nature’s Game Show

November 25, 2008 Ryan Berenz

A tornado is hitting the trailer park in Camden County, and the “Finders Keepers” rule is in effect — you basically get to keep whatever piece of debris you find. (This is how Earl got the blue door on his El Camino.) The storm sets off a chain of events in which a flying Bible, a flying gun that shoots blanks and a flying boat are all taken for spiritual signs. As Earl, Randy, Joy, Crab Man, Patty and Catalina end up taking shelter from the tornado in the cellar of a church, they all start to realize the events […]

How I Met Your Mother: The Naked Man

November 25, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Posted by Mike Synopsis: Over the years, Ted has seen a lot of weird stuff in his apartment: Lily painting acrobats, a gun-wielding Robin engaged in a standoff with two armed robbers and, of course, the goat. But he’s never seen anything quite like Robin’s blind date Mitch, who — when Robin steps out to take a call on her cell phone — strips naked and sits on the couch, waiting for her to return. It’s a technique he calls “The Naked Man,” and it’s to be used as a last resort on a first date when it becomes evident […]

The Office: Frame Toby

November 21, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Synopsis: How can things get any worse for Michael Scott? Holly has been forced to transfer back to New Hampshire, and now Toby Flenderson has been hired back to replace her. Despite his protests to David Wallace, Michael is faced with the reality that Toby isn’t going anywhere — unless Michael can frame him for sexual harassment or violence in the workplace. After trying and failing at both, Michael goes to Plan B, which is to buy a $500 bag of salad, which he believes is marijuana, and plant it in Toby’s desk drawer. When the cops come, Michael begins […]

How I Met Your Mother: Woooo!

November 18, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Posted by Mike Synopsis: After Robin complains that she needs more alone time with Lily, because Marshall is always around to talk-block her, the two of them decide to attend a birthday party for one of Lily’s fellow teachers, Jillian. They’re surprised to find out Jillian, who’s very quiet and reserved at school, is a Wooo girl — the type of single woman who hangs out a bars, wears a little cowboy hat and responds to everything by shouting, “Woooo!” Robin, seeking solace among single friends, falls in with the Woooo girl crowd and Lily is initially horrified — before […]

Family Guy Season 7 Episode 6: Tales Of A Third Grade Nothing

November 17, 2008 Channel Guide Contributor

At the brewery, Peter gets called to the CEO’s office, and on the way discovers the Executive Bathroom. His helicopter ride to the Jurassic Park-like jungle island toilet convinces him that he must move up in the company so that he can always poop in style. He tries everything he can think of to get promoted — wearing a suit, cleaning his office, building a robot that tries to kill people, blowing up a children’s hospital — but unfortunately, it turns out that he never completed the third grade, and if he wants to become an executive, he’s gotta go […]

“My Name Is Earl”: Earl And Joy’s Anniversary

November 14, 2008 Ryan Berenz

Earl is doing some items on his list at the Crab Shack, and one of them is repairing the dent he put in the bar. Which reminded him of how it got there. Back in 2000, Randy ruined the piece of stolen wedding cake that Joy had been saving to eat for good luck on her and Earl’s first anniversary. To make it up to Joy, Randy throws a party for them at the Crab Shack, inviting people from Joy’s address book. But it turns out that Joy’s address book is really a list of guys she’s foned boned. One […]

The Office: Business Trip

November 14, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Synopsis: David Wallace, feeling bad for having made Holly transfer — and knowing that Michael is easily impressed — decides to send Michael on a business trip to Canada. It’s the perfect way to distract him from his broken heart, since Michael has always been intrigued by all things international: the women, the pancakes, the man of mystery. Andy tags along to translate and Oscar is pretty much forced to join them against his will. Despite Andy’s misguided attempts to hook him up with a “hot slab of Canadian bacon” during the trip, Oscar ends up having a good time […]

The Office: Customer Survey

November 12, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Synopsis: The results of the annual customer survey are in and, surprisingly, both Jim and Dwight have performed badly. Dwight suspects sabotage and, for once, his paranoia is justified. It seems Kelly falsified the negative responses to get back at Jim and Dwight for blowing off her America’s Got Talent season finale party. She gets caught but keeps her job because of Michael’s empathy for her situation. He has a really hard time getting people to come to his parties and he’s got the leftover guacamole to prove it. Through all of this, Jim communicates with Pam via the world’s […]

Droided Up: Seth Green And Matt Senreich Get Geeked About "Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode II"

November 12, 2008 Ryan Berenz

Posted by Ryan “I still can’t believe any of this is happening in my real life,” says Seth Green. “I am so amazed that we’re getting to do this. I just don’t want anybody to wake me up.” For Star Wars fanatics Green and Robot Chicken co-creator Matt Senreich, doing a Star Wars-themed episode of their stop-motion animated comedy was, to quote Luke Skywalker, “like something out of a dream.” So getting a sequel greenlighted must’ve felt like a Jedi mind trick. But it’s no Bantha poodoo: Adult Swim presents Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode II on Nov. 16 at […]

How I Met Your Mother: Not a Father’s Day

November 11, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Posted by Mike Synopsis: At the beginning of the episode, Barney receives the worst news a guy like Barney can get — he is going to be a dad. Or at least he thinks he is, since he is too awesome to not have impregnated someone. He’s relieved to find out that he’s wrong, however, and in celebration he decides to create a new holiday: Not A Father’s Day. With all the talk of babies, Lily and Marshall decide that they want one — that is, until Lily shows up drunk at Marshall’s office ready to get the project started, […]
