We’ll Always Have Tuesday
March 23rd, 2004
This is a week of drastic highs and lows in LTR’s little cartoon world.
He has devoted hours of each day to studying the stratagems and theories of the great Flying Shark vs. Flying Crocodile debate. This fills him with endless joy.
But then he discovered that one of his favorite shows, Home Movies, is being cancelled.
LTR has been with this show from Day One, when it was filmed in slightly nauseating Squigglevision. Even during the Dark Times when LTR was denied Basic Cable by the Evil Lords of Fiscal Responsibility, he would walk uphill in the snow every Sunday night to watch it.
He particularly likes the episode that features a rock opera based on Kafka’s Metamorphosis:
He is Franz Kafka!
Franz Kafka!
Be careful if you get him pissed…
Franz! Franz Kafka!
He’ll smite you with metaphor fists!
Writing all he can, he’s just a man
A warrior of words taking a stand
He is Franz Kafka!
[Spoken: Oh look, but there he is, what will he say?]
I’m a lonely German, a lonely German from Prague!
Kafka! Kafka! Kafka!
Hopefully, we will be lucky enough to see some DVDs of this fine, funny show soon.

Now I want to see Kafka take on Schoepenhauer in a battle of the bands.

Or Flying Kafka vs. Flying Schoepenhauer.

Ouch. I know someone who will be bummed about Home Movies. They better put it on DVD!
