Wow, we had a lot of writers this week. Let’s keep this up people! I don’t know if I’ll get time to review the rest of the episode, but here’s a WU review to start with.

Merck: Nice one, these Vioxx jabs are quite funny.
Nominee: The Sinead O’ Conner part was good, but the rest was unnecessary.
Harriet Miers: 60 Year Old Virgin... ok. There haven’t been too many virgin jokes.
Tom Cruise: Cruise jokes are old, but I have to admit... seeing a baby jumping around like an idiot would be worth a laugh.
Tony Danza: Yo! I have no idea who Yanni is, but okay.
Serenity: Ooh, nice jab at Star Wars!
Palestinians: Yes... this was great joke! My first favorite joke of the week!
Sex Museum: The punch line was a bit too predictable
British Santas: solid joke, a bit wordy though.
Chinese: Don’t have a problem with racial terms, again, it was predictable.
Dog Testicles: Literally on the BALLS would have been funnier in my opinion
George W. Bush: Let’s see... a Bush piece, along with a musical reference, Mark Jennings Reese, you’ve been found out. I have to admit this was an improvement. Some of the jabs were clever, like the Head Cases. I did enjoy the bit about the astrodome. I’ve heard of REO Speed Wagon, so it was a good closing statement.
Walmart: Clever, but man... a visual would have been nice.
Bennet: This Douchebag should go for Ass Hole of the year! The guy actually thinks he was taken out of context! When he clearly said that on air. And what ticks me off is that all those conservatives are defending him. They all stick together!
Stuttering: Clever reference, my second favorite joke of the week!
Bush: Standard bush joke, no need for this after the commentary!
Kicked off an Airplane: A bit wordy, but I liked it.
Regis Christmas: I hope this story is false, because no wants Regis to sing!
Tudor Mansion: Yeah, Adam West is useless and crazy, this has beaten this to death!
Earthquake: I didn’t get this. So they ran because of the divorce?
Karl Rove: He’s a crook, we get it.
Boy George: I did my own Boy George joke, but this was okay with a song association.
Bill Buckner: This was good. I believe this your first commentary Jason, and I think it was a good start. The one-liners were well crafted. “A cross-bound Jesus could do better” was my favorite! Actually, it was quite interesting because you don’t too many of these on the WU, keep up the good work!
Honda: Mine n/a
NYC Subway: Mine n/a
LifeGem: Mine n/a
I-POD: Mine n/a
Bush: another weak bush joke.
Rollingstone: The subject matter is stale, but it was a clever punch line.
Aunt Jamima Affair: It was funny, but these 2 jokes seemed out of place in my opinion.
Crocker: Yeah not as good as the first one
Volvo and Kanye West: Absolutely useless! And one right after the other!
Melissa Etheridge: Wordy but decent.
Courtney Cox jokes: Sorry but once again these were useless!
Paris Hilton: I think we should stop all Paris Hilton jokes.
George Clooney: Now this was a nice jab at celebrity pickiness! I’m gonna say Mark wrote this? And this is my final favorite of the week!
Tara Reid: Tara Reid, she’s just going down the tubes with that E! Show, good jab though
Renee Zellweger: Glad you went with a more creative punch line!
Sharon Stone: Crotch shot... yeah okay!
Boy George: Mine n/a
The Darkness: Mine n/a

I apologize if I was harsh, but as said before... I think we need harsh reviews and feel free to brutally pummel my jokes and commentary. That's all for now people!
