The Christmas Experiment 2017 Hours 3&4: Sitcoms and Stuff

Viewing thoughts: Doing some sitcoms because sure, whatever.

Becker: I never really cared for Ted Danson up until The Good Place. His character is a jerk and it's a Christmas episode. His character is in love with a waitress, she's in love with him. It's dumb.. Other than him, I don't know a single person on this show or a character either. It's all kind of not never funny.

Wings: Another show I never really watched and have little affinity to. It's a sitcom in a airport that would be outdated 7 years later when 9/11 happened. It's also a very special episode about mental insanity. Meh.

Roseanne: This is on Logo which, on paper, is the LGBT channel. In reality, it's kind of become a second TVLand. Then it's not. Anyway, this is the episode where Fred Willard marries Martin Mull so I guess it is kind of fitting that it would be on Logo. Roseanne plans a gay wedding. It's wonderful. Liza impersonators. Shirtless guys. Drag queens. Somehow, Martin Mull's Leon doesn't agree. He sucks. It also has June Lockhart as Leon's Mom which is insane.

Look, I'm going to talk about Logo some more. It also has All in the Family which had like three episode dealing with Gay Rights or even had a gay character on it. Look, I'm just saying that they need to get some better criteria. Also, some gayer commercials. All I'm saying is that they've fallen far from bad reality shows that lack much in the way of interest.


The Golden Girls: Interesting fact: gay guys love The Golden Girls. Don't ask me why. We just do.

This is a Stan episode. It happens. It's also an episode with a St. Olaf story. But yeah, the episode has the women working at a homeless shelter on Christmas while Stan lost all his money.

Non-Viewing Thoughts: I hate that Coke Zero is now Coke Zero Sugar. It's a dumb rebranding.

Late Christmas Ideas: I saw this wonderful Golden Girls coffee table book a few years back. Bet it's cheap now...

Notable Commercials: I keep on seeing commercials for the World Wildlife Fund. It's jarring considering they keep calling themselves WWF which, well, growing up, those letters usually meant sweating men groping each other for me.

There have been three seasons of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars yet we still haven't gotten a second All-Stars season of Big Brother.
