Networks have sports, the same old sitcoms, and increasingly sleazy reality programming.

When I was watching the finals last night I saw a commercial for a show called, "Wife Swap." And then another for something else called, "Desperate Housewives." It was somewhat disturbing to me.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Are you sure that wasn't spam, Kristen? Maybe that's where they're getting their ideas now. Next on FOX, Wife Swap followed by Split Her in Two with Your Huge Member. Next week, Debt Consolidation, FREE!

Punishingly Intricate

Debt Consolidation, FREE!

Man I'd totally watch that.

Unless spam got a lot more profitable, I don't think spammers can afford 30 second spots during the NBA finals.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Has anyone seen the ads for the new sitcom on Fox? The premise is that two black guys move to the suburbs. Wacky, huh? Wait, it gets better: their mom is there to put a stop to their wacky hijinks.

Sounds great.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You know what's funny about that, Kristen? The premise sounds almost exactly like the Chappelle's Show sketch "Trading Spouses," in which it was technically a husband swap.

Will & Grace is still going strong, obviously bolstered by Sean Hayes' contract with the Devil.

Um.

You're gonna love this place. The TV commercial is hilarious for a whole bunch of reasons.

Caution - probably not safe for work.

I think this is yet another US remake of a British show.

So at least it's not just us.

Desperate Housewives is actually a drama. Well, a suburban soap or something like that. I'm already betting it gets yanked after 3 episodes.
