Byron’s TV Listings, May 31

TV Guide, November 15, 1969 - "The Governer and J.J."

G’day! Byron the Quokka here, with Lee’s blog. I guess I’ll throw you some TV listings. Lee’s a bit ga-ga today, so cut us some slack. Here we go!

Saturday

12:08 p.m., Ch. 42   WHOPPER WORLD–Liars get theirs

Tired of TV anchormen and assorted “experts” lying to you? Host Huckleberry Hound sure is! His crack investigative team tirelessly exposes Lies by Rich and Famous Nick-nocks. “Scared me right out of the news business!”confesses former anchor Juli McGooley.

1:08, Ch. 60   MOVIE: DIGGING GENGHIS KHAN–Archaeology for people who don’t watch “Whopper World”

Join Harry Larrabee’s Mongol Wannabes as they search for the legendary Tomb of Genghis Khan in all sorts of unlikely places. This week: Double Trouble, New Jersey; Epoxy Station, Utah. Psychiatric services provided by Guess What, You’re Sane!

Sunday

2:02 p.m., Ch. 81   MIMSY’S GUERRILLA KITCHEN–Cooking stuff you never thought of cooking

Actually it should be spelled “gorilla” because that’s what it is: a bunch of gorillas in a kitchen. Someone tied Mimsy to the back bumper of a 1954 Dodge, so the apes are on their own. Special Guest Star: Gordon (where’s he been?) Lightfoot.

Sorry, but that’s all we’ve got for you this week. The Boss runs out of gas every few minutes. Dreaming about being sucked back into the hospital has not left him with a lot of oomph this morning.

And so, for the time being, this is Byron the Quokka signing off.

Meet the Quokka

Don’t bother me about listing only 3 shows! A quokka can only do what a quokka’s gotta do.

  1. Wow, good to see Byron back again, and Huckleberry Hound as well! Not sure I’d want to sample stuff from Mimsy’s Kitchen, though. 🙂

    Welcome back, Lee. You continue in my prayers.

  2. I nominate that all “news” programming of the legacy media be labeled as Whopper World. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have a sudden urge to visit Burger King. 🙂

  3. WHOPPER WORLD – oh no, Juli McGooley was one of my favorites. MOVIE: DIGGING GENGHIS KHAN – I’ve been looking for a documentary to help me fall asleep, and this one just might be the ticket. MIMSY’S GUERRILLA KITCHEN – another cooking show, so I will alert my daughter to watch this since she is a professional chef.
