G’day, boys ‘n’ girls! Byron the Quokka here, with another weekend of TV that’ll restore your sanity and make you lucky at cards. At least that’s what they tell me.
6:30 P.M. Ch. 60 BUZZWORD!–Incredibly annoying game show
Is it “iconic”? Were you “assigned the male gender at birth”? Were you ever a “pregnant person”? Join host Jimmy Fraud as celebrity guests try to outdo each other at spouting buzzwords. There can only be one winner! The others get tossed into the shark tank–always the favorite part of the show.
6:32 P.M. Ch. 14 MOVIE–Horror, suspense, terror, etc.
In Night of the Dachshund (Serbo-Colchian, 1732: 14 minutes), retired mouthwash taster Roy LeBoy (Eddie Albert), bitten by he knew not what, turns into a ravening, savage dachshund whenever there’s a full moon. Mrs. Tweedle: Adrienne Barbeau. Tongue-tied man with pince-nez glasses: Arnold Stang.
7 P.M. Ch. 08 ALEXANDER THE NOT-SO-GREAT–Sitcom
His dream is to conquer Asia–if he can find it on a map. This Alexander, played by this guy we found in Shipping & Receiving, doesn’t like being King of Kaput; he wants to be King of Somewhere Else. General Fung: Jayne Payne. Queen Poprock: Alice Ghastly. Assorted soldiers et al: The June Taylor Dancers.
Ch. 34 NEWS FOR NINNIES–News you won’t see anywhere else
Reporters Angus Kabong and Sarah Bosh investigate unused picnic tables. Sports: Is pro wrestling really fixed? Really? Science news: Why does the ball in a Fly-Back always come back to the paddle? Anchors: Jeremy Skrinch, Sue Persimmins.
Well, folks, if those shows don’t do it for you, I don’t know what will.
Now all I have to do is get in somehow. Where did they put the door?
Good job, Byron. Hope all have fun with these.
