Here's that old review I was looking for. It was behind the Leif Garret album, and there was a bag of Pop rocks stuck to it.
***********************************************************

Trump�s Project: I have to say, I�m getting tired with all the Trump humor. Tell that to SNL, all those corny promo sketches from 2004.
However Jack, this was acceptable. The concept of a science fair was pretty good. The ending with everyone getting burned alive was kind of outrageous, but it fits well with Trump�s project. Everything can go wrong, and he�ll casually wipe his hands clean of the situation. Solid Sketch.

Ashton Kutcher monologue: This was a one-line gag in my sketch. Hey, both sides had a Demi Moore cameo. Seth Meyers was an interesting choice. I think it was better than the real one. This was a more recent topic. Ashton and Demi as an older couple is kind of an old topic.

Steroid Committee: Who would have thought the same gags would be used in the Hardball parody. But I preferred this sketch because it was a direct take from the Senate Hearing. Dennis Kucinich was a nice touch. Everything was parodied correctly so there is not much else to say.

Dereck�s Cult: I talked about this on the Chat Board, but it was a good sketch. Perfect casting I might add. After reading it a second time I did notice one thing. It gets too wordy, you don�t need to write every time that Gary and Shayvone get confused. Sometimes it�s just understood.

Funny Forum: Clever concept, and Eric Idle cameo was excellent. The fart jokes were becoming too much, but funny nonetheless. Dave Chappelle insert was good, I like Dave Chappelle. What�s going on with his show, why is there a delay? I would have played with Mr. Bean a bit more. Then again, it�s hard because, he has more of the visual humor. You�re right though, British people are pretty arrogant.

Are We dead Yet?: Clever concept. Parody off The Jacket I assume. The ending was kind of weird. I didn�t get why he was singing. But never-the-less, it was a good parody, of an interesting movie.

WU:
It was a pretty good update. My favorite jokes were the Mario Vasquez joke, the LOTR musical, and the Chris Rock jokes.

The Bernie Mac commentary was pretty good, you got the dialogue dead on to what Mac says.
Star Wars Diva: If this was a visual sketch it would have been much better. But I got it, and the GL insert was a nice touch.

Gil Treacle: It was an interesting commentary. Not the funniest, but a solid commentary. I didn�t think the Tony Blair bit was necessary.

Great Service: Well, this was an over-the-top sketch. I liked the bit in the middle where the couple says the sketch should be about them. The couple�s lack of understanding seems to be a theme in your sketches CCS, similar to FOB�s tattoo. But I enjoyed this one a lot more.

Think of the Children: The sketch was kind of confusing, but the concept was interesting so that makes up for it. Schools are worried about the student�s self esteem. Hey, if they care about self esteem, they should ditch the rope climb. Seriously though, it was an okay sketch and the Nick character was a nice insert.

Redundant Science- the donut. Interesting concept, JP. The sophisticated science show with the juvenile clerk was a good contrast. The PBS bit was good, but you could have stopped after CBS. The robbery portion wasn�t really necessary in my opinion. I would have added a couple more lines about the science of the donut. �The parodox behind long-johns and craft of the sprinkles�

CNN w/Anderson Cooper: The Bill O� Reilly gags were pretty good. I have never actually seen the Anderson Cooper show, but this was a pretty solid sketch. I liked the Bush speech especially the bit with the Kool-Aid.

Sensation and Miracles: By the title, I was thinking of something else. Something like an Oprah parody. But once I got into it, I was laughing out loud. This could easily make SNL, good sketch Jason.

I had the last sketch. I�m happy with the positive comments. Yes, I had to research to find out her name, Rumer Willis. Larry the Cable Guy was inserted because I really wanted to diss him. He is not funny, and I can�t believe he has a strong fan-base. I saw part of his show on CC, I could barely understand him.

Overall: The show was good, I have to call it a tie. Both eps had excellent sketches.
