The other night I did not watch TV at all, which is sort of unprecedented. I did quickly check the score of the Nats game, and the Travel Channel to see if the poker tournament was a repeat (it was). The point is, I did not sit on the couch with my mouth agape for a 2 to3 hour period with the remote in my hand.
Summer TV, except for sports, is a bit of a wasteland anyway. The only thing that’s been worth watching lately is ‘Entourage’ and ‘The Comeback’ on HBO.
‘Entourage’ is excellent and funny. If a show can be judged by the number cringe-inducing moments in each episode, then ‘The Comeback’ is it.
In ‘The Comeback,’ Lisa Kudrow proves that she was the most talented person on ‘Friends,’ in terms of acting. If you are judging by breasts, the race between Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox is neck-and-neck (or chest-and-chest). An honorable mention goes to Matthew Perry, particularly during that period when he tried to eat his way through his addiction to painkillers.

As a former proud owner of a sweet, perky pair of man boobs, I resent the hell out of this post. Your flip comments about Matthew Perry and his struggle with prescription medication (heck, even Rush Limbaugh had to fight the good fight) fail to take into account the real deep dissatisfation he must have had with his fluctuating breast and stomach size. Do you know how hard it is on a guy to keep looking good after age 35? With all the taut bellied, hard bodied, bottle tanned young boy toys leering at you from the cover of Men's Health and GQ every month. Do you know how hard it is to go out with the guys and have to make some flimsy excuse for not digging into the cheese nachos or having that second pitcher of brew? I'm surprised Matthew Perry wasn't stooping over between takes to stick his finger down his throat and spew the double cheeseburger he snarfed down during the previous break. It took me years of identity revisualization exercises and chakra reworks to learn that a man is more than the sum of his cup and waist size. My doctor says I swallowed alot of aggression......along with alot of pizzas.
So, as my brother in law Br-Y-an would say, "Whatcha gonna do about it, doughboy?"
