Sunday, 9:00 p.m.
Each week, advertisers battle to outwit, outlast and outpay the competition in order to secure thirty-second and sixty-second portions of national television time. Viewers then use their purchasing power to vote for the best advertisement, thereby granting the advertiser immunity to market fluctuations. To build suspense, the show also includes short comic plays about current events and human foibles. For more information, contact Julie Kantrowitz, (212) 636-5300. |
Monday, 8:00 p.m.

Thursday, 9:00 p.m.
Two chefs compete to make the most ironic multi-course dinner from ingredients that were trendy twenty years ago and are now considered completely tacky. The winner is the chef whose menu requires the most air quotes to describe. |

Friday, 8:30 p.m.
You'll recognize lots of your favorite "teen" stars in the "90210" spoof "Grosse Pointe," but you sure won't recognize Lindsay Sloane because she is nothing at all like Aaron Spelling's daughter Tori. After all, everyone knows that Tori never had plastic surgery, yet Lindsay starts every episode with a new chin, breast or ribcage. Also, the woman who plays Lindsay can act, and her eyes are not on the sides of her head and in no way give her the appearance of a flounder. We hope these obvious differences will convince Mr. Spelling to step off.

Thursday, 8:00 p.m.
Lorelai Gilmore has made her share of mistakes in life, but she's doing her best to make sure that her sixteen-year-old daughter Rory doesn't follow in her footsteps.

We first met her in a hotel lobby masturbating with a magazine, and boy, has she come a long way since then! That pun was definitely not intended, as our little darling is now a recovering sexaholic who has found legitimate employment as a board-certified jazzercist. With the help of her wacky students at the SunView Retirement Village, Nikki learns so much about herself, her God and her newfound ability to have what she calls "orgasms of joy," that it's just sick.
