Watch a little TV

[captain_slinky]

THIS IS EFFING BRILLIANT!!!

It's an entire on-line network of "Minisodes"! They've taken tons of vintage TV shows (Silver Spoons, Diff'rent Strokes, Charlies Angels, etc) and condensed them down to FIVE MINUTE EPISODES! It's like a Fun-Size Snickers Bar, only instead of Peanuts and Nougat it's full of CHEESE!!!

The first person I thought of when i saw this site was dotrgirl, who enjoys television but hates wasting so much time and/or attention on actually *watching* anything.

(In the amount of time it took me to write this post, I missed the entire episode of "What's Happening" where Rob, Dwayne and Re-Ron get caught trying to scalp tickets to the Stevie Wonder concert)

Gotta go! TJ Hooker is on!

It does seem to be made for me!

You will be happy to know, though, that I watch "How I Met Your Mother", faithfully, every Monday at the CBS.com website. Even though they have the 3-minute drill recaps available.

Yeah, but to be fair... that's How i Met Your Mother! it's the new "Friends"!

Still, I'm awfully proud of you. You've grown up so much!

I just found myself getting bored during a 5-minute episode of "VIP"... how torturous must the 60-minute version be???

Pretty cool, watching Bewitched in just 5 minutes.

Wasn't all that keen on the TV shows...liked the 30-second movies, re-enacted by bunnies, though!
