Zack Morris is the World’s Biggest Douche
Like anyone from my generation, I grew up with Saved by the Bell. It’s a campy Sat morning sitcom that never really took itself all that serious, although it did sometimes try to beat you over the head with its public service message. I wonder how many members of the cast were actually high when Johnny Dakota showed up at Bayside? But that’s besides my point. So what is the point? Hold on…I’m getting there.
Zack Morris is the world’s biggest douche bag!
The last couple of mornings I have been waking up early and catching Saved by the Bell on TBS (hey, we all need a reason to get up early). It has now occurred to me that Zack is such a piece of shit he gives douche bags a bad name. Even Criss Angel would call Zack a douche before pulling an apple out of a bag and cutting his own tongue with a razor blade.
In only 2 episodes: Zack cons his friends out of money, willfully purchases cheap class rings so he can make a quick buck, sabotages his closest friends chances of writing a new school song and unsuccessfully tries to rig a cooking competition.
I don’t really care that Zack is a cheater. Zack Morris is a super douche because he is cheating and hurting his friends. He will throw anyone, and more often than not, his best friend, Screech, under the bus. He will stab you in the back and convince you to buy the knife. Zack has no loyalty and is a terrible, terrible role model. But for some reason, our generation loved Zack Morris. Zack was so loved the producers decided to give him 1590 on his SATs even though he didn’t prepare at all for the test.
With each episode I now watch, I despise Zack more and more. Even George Bush doesn’t throw his close friends into the fire like this. Zack is making croneyism look like loyality. But I guess this makes sense. America loves to idolize a monolithic douche and that is why we are now stuck with Spencer Pratt.

I think I am too old for this. After the OC, I don’t think I have patience for this anymore. I’ll check it out, but I don’t think I will last past the second episode.
Why Does The Simpsons Start at 7:59PM?!
Why do new episodes of The Simpsons constantly start at 7:59PM? It’s not like my clock is wrong. I am looking at the time on the cable box. It’s pretty accurate. I remember watching a different New Years 2000 counting down on 10 different islands — it was as accurate as ol’ big ben himself. My Blackberry has the right time. So does my computer, when I actually get the Windows time to sync. So why is the Simpsons starting 1 minute early every Sunday?
This isn’t new. It’s been going on for years. The reason this is frustrating me is that I tivo (timewarner DVR) it every week. Who watches anything in real time anymore? The DVR does have an option for starting the show a few minutes early. But I am usually in a hurry to leave and I quickly set The Simpsons along with King of the Hill and the rest of the Sunday night line-up. It’s not like I can set a season pass for new Simpson episodes, with it starting a minute early. Anyone with a DVR knows that doesn’t work. You will wind up recording every 6ish and 11ish (depending on your Fox affiliate) episode that week. So I manually set it, and I usually forget that for some bizarre reason it starts early.
Normally I wouldn’t care that I missed the opening credits of a show. But any true Simpsons fan knows the opening is what it’s all about. I have completely given up on recording anything on MTV. Not only does the cable guide not match the show, they are so messed up, shows are starting 40 minutes into the hour. Comedy Central loves to run 2 minutes over and Showtime runs just about 5 minutes over (Bullshit did). I have gotten used to that.
But why on earth is The Simpsons, the longest running comedy show, starting early? I can’t figure it out. Does anyone know?
Um…OK…But That Shit Sucked!
My friends all loved it. My family loved it. The critics raved about it. I thought 300 sucked. Perhaps I missed out by not seeing it in the theater, but I don’t think it even looked that great. It had some moments, a few decent lines in otherwise mediocre period-dialogue. It really went down hill once the dinosaur showed up. After that it was hard to take the man with crab arms seriously. I know it was it a graphic novel and that’s exactly what it felt like. Just not a very good one.- I have one word for Gossip Girl: SUCKED! That shit was terrible. It’s only and I repeat, only saving grace is Leighton Meester. She is one of the main characters and she’s mad hot. Hot enough to make me watch this show? We’ll see. Not if it continues at it’s current pace. I know it’s Upper East-side, rich NY Kids, but what is with those names? It’s like watching a made for cable, Cruel Intentions 4. I know they think referencing a blog on TV is so cool in 2007, but actually, no you’re waaaaaay late. What happened to Josh Schwartz and his soundtrack? He made a name for himself and The OC due to his cutting-edge hipster playlist. Angels and Airwaves and Justin Timberlake are hardly cutting edge indie sounds. For Leighton, I will give it another chance. But damn, did this shit SUCK!
