That's comin' outta your paycheck, Sparky.

Wow. That was, um...
Not particularly funny at all, actually.

Moire evidence that you can't idiot-proof anything.

Billy Mays would have busted the TV with the power of his voice, then fixed it with Simoniz scratch remover.

He must have seen a horse on the screen.

Too soon?

"Make sure your accessories are definitely latched on all the way."

Good advice in many situations.

Wow. I thought I knew what this video would be about, but that ending sure surprised me. Not really. Who buys electronics on home shopping channels?

Who buys anything on home shopping channels? Other than bored housewives of course...

Lol, that TV is farked.

If they did take that out of his paycheck.. WOW.. the TV, the unit.. the LOSS of units from people saying, "Fark buying that crap and having that happen to MY TV!"

I hope I'm not the first person to realize you can just flick your wrist and win every time. Without breaking a sweat.

\Good at flicking my wrist without breaking a sweat

Actually, considering what happened to the TV, that's a pretty clever pun.

I'm guessing the "Showstopper" suddenly became wide-screen TVs.

I would just like to comment on how nice it was to click on a video and see a five second lead-in, the punchline, and get just a little bit afterward to play me out.

/so tired of long irrelevant editing.

Fault

lulz

What do you mean, to play you out? What!?!? What does that mean!?!? Farkin thing sucks!

Why do you need to buy a fake plastic attachment to play Wii Tennis?
Does it make the experience that much better?

Speaking of Moire, did you see that weird effect of the plowed field that Falcon's balloon landed in as the helicopter cameras were zooming in and out? That was awesome.

What a simple, simple man...

CitizenTed		2009-10-17 01:32:02 PM

Those who can, do.
Those who can't, work in sales.

/har.

Nothing makes the Wii better. It's pretty much just flailing around and watching an on-screen avatar go through pre-programmed motions.
