Jay Leno stole a bit from South Park

[rookie]

Terry Bradshaw was a guest on Leno's new time slot last night, so they run a bit where they let a chicken predict the winner of three upcoming NFL games, and then get Bradshaw's opinion after the bird makes a decision.  What they did was have three platforms set up, each with two bowls of bird feed that corresponded to two separate teams that were scheduled to oppose eachother in the '09-'10 season.  They set the chicken down in the middle of the platform, and whichever bowl of bird feed he starts to peck from represents his determination of the winner.



I thought it was hiarious...

when I saw it on South Park.

I am wondering how long that will last at the new time.  Broadcast tv in general sucks anymore.  There are only a very small number of interesting shows left.  I don't like reality shows on broadcast.  If it is still on, "My Name is Earl," is just about the only good sitcom.   Maybe, "Bones," is the best of the crime shows on broadcast.  But cable is blowing broadcast out of the water.  With shows like, "Mad Men," and "Breaking Bad." 

Has anyone noticed the trend toward indoctrination types of shows on broadcast lately?  Shows like, "24," "Homeland Security," "Army Wives," "The Unit," and "NCIS."   It could be argued that most cop shows are indoctrination as well.

I hate that an innovative show like "Pushing Daisies," got screwed by the writer's strike before it could find and audience.   Maybe some smart cable network will pick it up and run.  I suppose I liked the quirky aspects and the visual originality.

Leno sucks ass. He never was funny. Also, what is the deal with him coming out at the beginning of each show high fiving the audience. That always came across as weird to me. Letterman and Conan are far far better.

I think the chicken thing has been done in a variety of places. In fact I'd bet Johnny Carson did it back in the 70's.
