TV Squad Daily with Brigitte - VIDEO

LOL! Some of you guys were afraid of Bumble? If it came down to encountering Bumble or E.T., I’d pick Bumble.

Bumble is too predictable. He telegraphs his attacks. I’d take him out Skywalker-style like Luke did to his cousin in “The Empire Strikes Back”.

Fear this… E.T. is highly intelligent and you need to take into account his situation. Being left behind on a little explored planet is going to instill the same mentality as a cornered wild animal.

That’s why you shouldn’t hang out in Nebraskan cornfields at night.

He’ll put a transmitter in your head. I’m tellin’ ya…

And when his posse finds you…

You’re dissected while conscious and there are no smiles.

There is NOT an increase in cupcakes sales during Winter Storm Warnings. Bread and milk. Stores are cleared out of those two items! Why? Because they think they will be so snowed in that the only thing they care about is toast and milk for their coffee/hot cocoa??

Bumbles! he scared me when I was little! he is timeless, not vintage! And now, he is the coolest icon of Christmas season (but a close tie is Nightmare before Christmas characters). No longer is Santa cool. Bumbles the Abominable Snowman..toothless!

Super Random Friday...nice vid, Brig. Have a great weekend folks!

The Bumble scared the living bejeezus out of me as a kid...but the part where they pulled his teeth out was even worse! How was that even supposed to help, anyway? Teeth or no, the Bumble was still 20 feet tall and could've easily brought Santa's house down around all their ears. Sometimes I kind of think he should've...

Just got my cell phone... now about that phone number...

Nice try. Brigitte knows not to fall for imitators.

Go-Kart, why do you spell your name differently than your login name? Maybe you can't decide how you want to spell it so you use both?

Porcelain dolls are creepy. They're even more creepy when they look like a real person. And super duper creepy when they look like a fruitcake like Marie Osmond.

Brigitte, love your shirt. Want to go shopping tomorrow?

I can't seem to reply to a reply.

But in response to rndnme - That's just part of it, though. The studio offered no compensation for movie downloads from sales as well as streaming. The studio's offer of $130 million is just for the use of reruns of TV shows online for a year. Which breaks down to just $250 per writer per year. That's a pretty crappy and limiting residual. The WGA wants a bit more in addition to other residuals for different distribution methods.

RE: Penrod (the Strike Pumpkin)

- Some folks speculate as to his whereabouts and/or condition.
- Some discuss his accessories.
- Some want to see Brigitte "pie" him.*
- Some meticulously track his various appearances.
- Some miss him when he refuses to appear.
- Some encourage an expanded role for him.
- Some argue that he's been slowly but surely withering on the inside all along.**

Although pumpkins start to rot in about 3 days, it turns out that there are ways to preserve them, at least for a while. Yes, pumpkin lives can be extended (although it may be a bit late for Pen, sorry.)

You can use a product called "Pumpkin Preserver," or even common household products like Vaseline or WD-40.***

Who'd've thought?****

* Perish that thought. I'd probably go for an "ashes to ashes, dust to dust" approach when it comes time. Renewing the earth and all that.

** There can be found a few time-lapse videos of rotting pumpkins. Please, please do not watch them if you have any affection for Penrod, or pumpkins in general. Especially you, Brigitte.

Here is a particularly gruesome one:

*** WD-40 only combusts when vaporised, so no lit candles until well after spraying.

**** This chap certainly did:

So not looking forward to this storm.

Given the way sound carries and echos in the mountains, it might be difficult to hone in on a precise location for bumbleyeti, but confirming its existence should be easy.

Just listen for the Boing! Boing! Boing! noises.
