Anyone else’s parents talk back to the TV news?

My MIL does that. It’s weird.

Both dead for a long time.

Thanks for bringing this up on Thanksgiving, asshat.

You forgot they were dead? They would probably appreciate you thinking of them once or twice a year. Particularly around the holidays.

I have shoes in a little basket and when they say shite I don’t like I throw shoes at the tv. That dude who called the last LSU game depleted my supply in ten minutes.

You join the club for a couple of decades and get back to me on how I should feel, Asshat II

Went to their gravesite yesterday.

Parents? Hell I do it regularly

Back home visiting for Thanksgiving. They make a comment on every story. It’s like their own personal opinion show. Pretty entertaining.

Maybe this can save Fox. Give some random arse people a platform to comment on the news.

Shows like the Five could be the Five plus one. The premise would be after Juan finishes talking points. “We now take you the kitchen of Old Hickory’s parents for their side of the story...” via Zoom Skype or whatever.

Nowadays remote TV production has come light years in just the last year with a decent internet connection. I can remember seeing Judge Jeanne Piro’s setup at home during the quarantine. There were lights, monitors, a teleprompter, a camera, background monitors, and more. You couldn’t even tell if she was at home or a studio.

You can setup a few of these kits and tour the nation with random voices of the nation each day.

Parents.... frick I do that.

I guess if we yell at the refs (and coaches) while watching football games on TV, why not the same for news?
