Okeedokee, here it is:

#5 I took a lot of heat from my collegues for liking this. The truth is, this got the loudest laugh of the night.

#4 I typically hate the use of babies, but the writing is clever and the message is simple. (So easy Franklin could do it as soon as he pays some of these damn bills down) I dug it.

#3 This is just f*ckin' cool. And my boy Charlie is in it!

#2 I thought this spot was the most rooted in truth and tangible benefit, as well as clever. (This was the office favorite also.)

Ye Olde Co-Sign

I learned a long time ago that if you want people to believe what you have to say, you have to find some white people to co-sign you.

With tonight being the premeire of "The Wire," I thought I'd link-up some articles that echo my belief that it is the best show on TV.

So here you's go.

From Time magazine, Connecting the Dots,

and from MSN, Getting Down to 'The Wire'
Ten reasons why "The Wire" is the best show on TV -- and why it is so unpopular.

Now you dun spent all that money on that TV this Christmas, watch something good on it.

Package up my ass, Gump.

For the uninitiated, the title of this post refers to my favorite line from the last season, season 4, of The Wire – The Best Shit On TV. January 6th, the fifth and final season starts. There has been a theme to every season of the Wire. This season’s focus is the news media and the death of the newspaper.

Here’s my advice for anyone who hasn’t caught on yet and are still disappointed by the weak ass ending to The Sopranos.

Season 4 is available on DVD. Rent it and watch the first 3 episodes. If you are not motivated to go back to season one and rent and watch every episode to catch up and continue with season four, you are lame. Woefully lame.

Lookie.
