Help Us Fill the “Worst Star Trek” Episodes Bracket — The bracket includes episodes from every “Star Trek” series, but I still think either “Turnabout Intruder” or “Spock’s Brain” from the original should win. Because they lose so hard. (Gamma Squad)

BOO THIS WOMAN! Mike Stone’s Porn Star Prom Date Rejected by Superintendent — No, I wasn’t saying, “Boo-urns.” (Film Drunk)

The Best and Worst of WWE Raw 3/19/12: Little Mac Versus Bald Bull — Little Mac and Bald Bull sound like aliases the characters on “It’s Always Sunny” would go by. In next week’s WWE Raw: Vic Vinegar vs. Hugh Honey. (With Leather)

Meme Watch: Pissed Old Guy Is Very Pissed, Very Old — Hey, everybody. An old man’s talking! (Uproxx)

Leo Messi Hat-Trick Breaks Barcelona All-Time Goal Record — “Greatest footballer of his generation and possibly off all-time,” and it’s not talking about Tebow? Yeah, RIGHT. (Smoking Section)

8 Funny Faces of the “Mad Men” Cast at the New York Stock Exchange — Honest to God, January Jones actually looks likable in these photos. (BuzzFeed)

Adult Swim World Premiere: Tanlines’ “All of Me” Music Video — Directed by Julian Barratt from “The Mighty Boosh”! (Adult Swim)

Two Firemen Dressed in Drag Put Out Burning Car — That sounds like a great Laurel and Hardy short, or a terrible “MADtv” sketch. (The FW)

A Photographic History of Jennifer Lawrence’s Brief Career — I’d like to say I knew her before she was famous, but that would require admitting I watched “The Bill Engvall Show.” (Pajiba)

An Incomplete Guide To Michael Bay’s Ridiculousness — The guide won’t be completed until he’s dead, except he’s never going to die. He sold his humanity to purchase the sound effect that goes VROOM VROOM. (Screen Junkies)

What’s On Tonight: A Bunch of Idiots

03.14.12 Written by Dustin Rowles

Survivor (CBS) — The title of tonight’s episode is, “A Bunch of Idiots.” There has never been a more appropriate title for this season of “Survivor.”

The Middle/Suburgatory/Modern Family/Happy Endings (ABC) — They’re all back tonight, but per usual, “Happy Endings” is the one to watch. In tonight’s episode, the gang attempts to find a restaurant where one of them hasn’t been banned or will run into an ex. Dollars to donuts, they settle for Dave’s meat truck. Meanwhile, “Modern Family” continues to stunt cast in lieu of new plotlines. Tonight’s episode will feature Bobby Cannavale (The Station Agent) and Ellen Barkin.

Psych (USA Network) — Anyone ever wonder what James Roday did before “Psych” came along? He was in The Dukes of Hazzard movie, that’s what.

South Park (Comedy Central) — (SEASON PREMIERE) “South Park,” entering its 16th season, is only 7 seasons behind “The Simpsons,” but still as good as eighth season “The Simpsons.” What sacred cow will the gang molest tonight? Ummm, leaving the toilet seat up. Scratch what I said about “South Park” still being fresh.

NCAA Basketball: California vs. South Florida (TruTV) — The NCAA Tournament kicks off tonight. Is the play-in game really on TruTV? Does anyone watch TruTV? Does anyone know where TruTV is on their cable lineup?

LATE NIGHT LISTINGS: Dave’s got Martin Short, Leno has Charming Potato and Drew Brees, Kimmmel has Jonah Hill, Ferguson has … Regis?, and Fallon has Tim Tebow. “The Daily Show” also has Rachel Weisz on what should be a good election episode.

This Sexual Predator Looks a Lot Like Kenny from ‘South Park’

03.02.12 Written by Josh

The always wonderful Fark directs us to a news story from WTAE in Pittsburgh. After a 23-year-old woman was sexually assaulted in the shower, she was asked to give a composite sketch of the perpetrator – and evidently, the sicko was Kenny McCormick from “South Park.” Or maybe a half-Kenny/half-Conehead creation. Or possibly a third-Kenny/third-Conehead/third-“SNL” Land Shark mutant. No matter who you see in the Pervert Rorschach Test, though, know that three other predators remain on the run, too:

Well, it’s time for me to snap my suspenders, tell someone they’re off the case, and track down these monsters. They never even had a chance. If I don’t do it, who will? *Drinks from flask hidden in gun holster*

Real-Life Cartman: RESPECT HIS AUTHORITAH

02.06.12 Written by Dustin Rowles

While prosthetic images of what Beavis and Butthead might look like in real life are terrifying, the image of a real-life Cartman is kind of sad. But before you criticize me for exploiting this guy, note that — according to the poster on Reddit — he intentionally dresses this way, and he welcomes photographs. Moreover, “he’s a very funny, intelligent and genuine person that takes life in a humorous manner,” which means that he’s probably a very good sport about it. You kind of have to be if your “thing” is dressing up like Cartman every day.

Boo Internet Censorship, Yay Internet Freedom: The Anti-SOPA Meme

01.18.12 Written by Josh


How many times have you gone to Wikipedia today, only to get their “Imagine a World without Free Knowledge” message? It’s happened to me four times already (I STILL don’t know the complete biographical background on the dad from “Webster”), and I’m pretty sure it’ll occur nine more times before the day’s out. But I’m not mad; I can wait to know what movies were shot in South Dakota. It’s for a good cause.

Today is SOPA Day on the Internet. Hundreds of websites, including Wikipedia and Reddit, are protesting the very bad Stop Online Piracy and Protect IP acts because, well, they’re very bad. Matt wrote about it back in November, and Señor Fancy Lawyer Man Danger Guerrero would like to add:

I can’t stress strongly enough to all of you how terrible the whole SOPA/PIPA thing is…Not only will this bill throw a giant wrench into the Internet, it also has SERIOUS Constitutional ramifications. It gives mass copyright holders (Disney, record companies, Viacom, etc.) the ability to restrict people’s speech and take away their property (websites) without due process.

That’s my favorite kind of process! So, contact your local representative and tell them, SOPA STINKS. After you’ve done that – ONLY after you’ve done that – check back here to see how the Internet has been reacting to the threat of censorship, through the use of TV shows and characters. I’ve added a few of my own, as should you. Find an image, add text here, and copy the link in the comments. We’ll include the best in the slideshow.
