NRBQ fans (and fans of quirky black humor) should try to catch The Pitts
before it gets cancelled; thanks to their friendship with creator Mike
Scully (ex-Simpsons), they do the theme song and other tunes. Last night's
episode featured the most peculiar sight of a teenage heartthrob dude
lip-synching to Joey Spampinato's voice during a video shoot...while a
teenage girl with a lead pipe through her head was dancing suspended in
mid-air above him, an image that pretty much sums up the entire show.
The Pitts is also recommended to anyone who admired Dylan Baker's
performance in HAPPINESS -- "liked" is never the right term to use with a
Todd Solondz film -- because he's absolutely hysterical in the lead role,
and anyone who likes really really cute women, because Kellie Waymire, who
plays his wife, is the epitome of adorableness. Anyway, if you're pissed
off because Fox cancelled Andy Richter Controls the Universe -- which also
had a really good theme song, come to think of it -- and put on Oliver
Beene, the epitome of "Hey, if we just talk really loud, people might think
this crap is funny!" lameness, The Pitts might be for you.
