In reply to: Patrick 's message, "REVIEWS: John C. Reilly 10/21/06" on 11:04:08 10/22/06 Sun

I wrote the IPOD, Meteorite, Cheese-steaks, Space weapons, English Prison deaths, and whooping cough jokes. The Carl Wollarski bit came to order after the atrocious closure given to the Superfans in 2003. Horatio Sanz cracking up during a Bart Swerski performance and JASON SUDEIKIS had a hand in it. Good god that was an insult to the recurring character. I felt the need to write one myself. The boorish, neanderthalic sportsfan deserves to be mocked and the fact is, Chicago fans don�t realize that Smigel wrote this as a smack at them. So basically I wanted to provide some closure and with a Chicago host I thought this would be the episode to do it. Plus the Bears won this week so it kinda coincides with it. I went with a cameo from Wollarski. Cicero�s Morgue, Bar and Grill, that was a funny line to me along with the line about beerbattered marijuana. Anyways here�s the joke by joke review.

Invisibility Cloak: The first part of the joke about the stalkers was a predictable, but the 2nd half was hilarious.

Saddam Hussein: Loved the South-Park movie, but again the punch line was predictable. I would have made fun of the prison that used Red Hot Chili Peppers music to get the guy to crack.

Australian Bathroom: Excellent punch line. Australia gets weirder every day.

Hawaii: Not bad, I think I would have to see the interaction acted out because on paper it wasn�t much.

Mexican Corn: Nice one! This joke was my favorite of the week!

Stingray: Eh, the Steve Irwin/stingray reference fell flat in my opinion.

Sunny Garcia: Punchline was so-so.

North Korea: Ooh, that would have received some boos. But it was alright with me, it�s the random ballsy joke that every WU needs.

Zepplin/Katrina: This was alright; it took me awhile to get the reference.

That�s it for the WU portion of the review. I will hopefully have a regular episode review up by Friday.

Thanks Prateek. BTW, the bathroom story came from Austria, not Australia -- Jim Bevan, 19:56:15 10/26/06 Thu
