This Weekend on the TiFaux: Planet Earth Rules

In All Things TV SNL
There’s more of DiscoveryHD and regular Discovery’s Planet Earth on Sunday, which is as spectacular as Sigourney Weaver’s self-satisfied narration claims it is.
Another Saturday, another new Robin Hood — officially the silliest, fluffiest, scowliest, cheesiest program about a bunch of dudes who live in a forest stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, ever.
Saturday Night Live’s a repeat of the Rainn Wilson episode, which was not that great, except for The Office parody in the monologue which was dead-on. If it were possible to set your TiFaux to record the first ten minutes of something, that would be the thing to tape.
On Sunday Showtime premieres The Tudors, of the ubiquitous ads. I wonder if the script will hold up to Jonathan Rhys Meyers’ superhuman smoldering.
We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming: DiscoveryHealth has a show called Baby Madness, which I suspect is actually some sort of fertility propaganda piece, designed to make women leap on the next man and demand offspring to satiate their sudden need for a cute widdle snuggly-umpkins. If nine months from now somebody announces they’re building a baby army, you’ll know I was right.

Oh, no, that Rainn Wilson one was good! Not just for some kickass Arcade Fire performing, but for:
1.) That sketch in the bar with the jukebox. “Even though we ain’t got money, I’m so in love with ya honey!”
2.) The digital short. GIANT TURKEY SUB!
