American Dad

It’s a new show on fox TV, first episode aired after the Super Bowl
I saw the first episode; it’s funny, yet not as funny as
Family Guy, Vol. 1 (Seasons 1 & 2)

Any way, the cartoon is about an American family
AMERICAN DAD !
Yeah I know, duh
Anyway, the father work in the CIA and a republican, the mother is a housewife, and they have two children, a liberal daughter and a nerd son, they also have a pet golden fish, which has the brain of a German! (The CIA didn’t want East Germany to win the gold medal so they switched brains), and an alien

The show is kind of heavy on political humor , one of the funny jokes the show had
Was that god was calling bush and telling him to downplay the relationship , as in saying “ god wanted me to be president “

god calling bush !
The show is from the same creator as family guy , as you can notice in the drawing style
creators

the show is worth it to see , i would recomend you watch it if you enjoy political humor

Is comedy a dieing art in kuwait ?

So I was watching the late night show special about Johnny Carson , and they were talking about how good he was and how he let small time comedian star on his show to give them a jump start
Some of the funniest comedians we see today were just stand up comedians before

like
young Jay leno !
and
Eddi murphy
and
jerry seinfeld

All of them were just standup comedian, then they climbed the ladder and have comedian writers writing materials for them (it doesn’t deny the fact that they them self are funny)

or have you seen “Last comic standing” it was a reality show were each stand up comedian is given a chance and then people vote who is the best ( a la Star academy )

I think we would need these programs more than programs that search for singers, my god singers are dime a dozen these days, ever seen the music channels on Nilesat or Arabsat? I’m sure we have more than America!!

But do we have the funny? Watch a Kuwaiti play lately? No there isn’t much funny in it, and the best they can come up with is taking shots at the other actors (شفت ويهيك ؟ تقول غاسلينه بتايد) and other sad similar joke

And that is why a funny show in Arab world can’t be a funny show for more than 2-3 years
Dawod hussain has lost his touch after 3 years of funny programs, the Saudi show tash ma tash is asking for writers submission since the 7th year, and since 4th year they have been hit and miss, with more miss than hit episode every year , yasser al athama Syrian show “maraya “was funny first two years, , then it died in the third year and so on and so forth, and lets not start on Egyptians.

Google …

is google taking over ?

My E-mail is from google , the search site that give results and always use is google
last time i tried to buy a product i used froogle
and of course whats best to search for pictures other than google
and of coruse half of the bloggers use blogger which is owned by …. google .

now google not to be stoped are out with something new
Google video
i have made some test search on it , and it seem to be nice , of cours its in Beta , so go ahead and give it a try

now if google buy E-bay ( which own pay-pal ) they would nearly own the internet , and that would be scary.
