What annoys me is that when I wait for a commercial to channel surf, all the other channels are also on commercial break

Looks just like my house!

Chester sure was a piece of work…

Someone – Anyone – Grab the remote!

Hold yer ground Earl, what do they know of good programming.

howdy, Doc.howdy, Matt.howdy, Matt, Doc.howdy Kitty..and so it goes

Marshal Dillon says: Don’t pick up a remote unless you’re prepared to use it.
