Yeah, I do have to admit that.

Did anybody think "Tom and the Mayor" was funny? It's not that I didn't think it was funny, more like did anybody think it was funny?

It's one thing to run a whole bunch of odd stuff and see if anything sticks. It's quite another to run utter shit just because you can. Build, build, build anticipation and then run crap that you know is crap and laugh at all the idiots who tuned in.

Funny once. Maybe.They've got a track record of pulling this same schtick and that's what's aggravating.
