Lio by Mark Tatulli for May 08, 2012

maybe lio can cling on to the bookshelf more .. literally ..

The TV will not let you escape…

There’s nothing on the 100 or so channels yet the TV never seems to get turned off.

I’m that way with the internet…it’s really tragic.

The pull of television… Fight it Lio!!!

“Well, maybe I’ll just check to see weather.”

That’s a TV? At first it looked to me like a space heater (in May?) or a portable bathtub (trying to get Lio in the bath?). Then I realized that it is in fact a TV, but a CRT in the flatscreen era?

When my cursor landed on top of the strip a little box popped up that said ‘drag to share.’ Maybe that’s what the TV was trying to do with Lio…

There’s fewer commercials in books

om nom nom nom nom!

“I’m the slime oozing out from your TV set!” An entire Zappa song in a picture.

Books are better’n TV cause you don’t miss a thing while you visit the bathroom

Yep, television is terrifying!

That speaks volumes. Literally.

Professional editorial cartoonists haven’t made observations this astute about the current state of our culture.

Lio got hooked!

Don’t you run away from me, kid. Jersey Bores is on!

The book is “The idiots Guide to Television”. Oh wait, it’s the TV Guide. Same difference.

“I find TV very educational. Every someone turns it on, I leave the room and read a book.” – Groucho Marx

Aha! I knew it! It’s the Barons of Commercial TV who are killing off the book publishing industry, with the aid of their “personal digital device” accomplices. Beware the Twonky!

ahhhhh! I knew it!

I find television very educational. Every time someone turns it on, I go into the next room and read a book.-Groucho Marx
