You're Welcome Readers

Most of you probably know this already, but one of our favorite comedians, Will Ferrell, is starring as George Bush on Broadway in the limited-run of You're Welcome America. A Final Night with George W. Bush. Now, we haven't seen this on Broadway despite the fact that we love Will Ferrell. See, when we go to a Broadway show, we'd rather spend our money on more intellectually-stimulating pieces of art, like Shrek the Musical.

But, what's exciting is that Ferrell's show is going to be on HBO tomorrow night, Saturday the 14th, at 9PM, so we can all watch it for free! Here's the information. Personally, we love when Broadway shows are on TV, because not only can you make loud comments during it, but you can also rewind-play as many times as you want. Remember when Fosse was on PBS many years ago? Yeah, can't tell you how many times we watched that over and over again to A. Try to learn all the choreography, and B. Swoon over Ken Alan, the guy who's about five feet tall in person and an incredible dancer.

So pop your 100-calorie kettle corn, sit back, and watch a Broadway show in the comfort of your own living room. It's sure to be hilarious. And Mike, we know what resnark you're going to make, so we might as well address it now.

Mike: Why would I choose to spend my time watching an actor who I find to be incredibly annoying play a politician who I find to be incredibly annoying?
Us: You don't have HBO. No worries.

And finally, we leave you with this video of The Rock- we're sorry, ahem, Dwayne Johnson- SINGING and DANCING on SNL. His arms are pretty ridiculous. So yeah, watch this video, it's hilarious, and it's pretty cool/bizarre/we're never going to watch his movies the same way again.

As great as that sounds, you're right, no HBO here. So I'll be sticking to my 1000+ calorie pizza and Netflix.

I call for a revival of "La Cage aux Folles" with Hugh Jackman and Dwayne Johnson...
