Smooth Operator
Since the bosses took a certain amount of risk hiring Danny because of his destructive tendencies, and with him now dealing with a divorce, Bonaduce is trying to put everyone in the company more at ease.

Danny: See this? That's that Anabuse pill so you can't drink. Teresa puts it in my mouth every single morning and watches me take it.
Adam: It says "Pez" on it.


An Eternally Elusive Creature
Teresa discussed her blind date, delighting us with chicken S reasons why she immediately rejected her latest potential suitor. Still she held onto her claim of being "ripe for the pickin'".

Adam: Low-hanging fruit, everybody! Hold on... that's the name of Bill's junk.


If The Show Is Ever Canceled, There's Always The New York PostAfter Frank Vincent's weekly Sopranos update, Teresa teased the news.

Teresa: Well you mentioned the Baldwins that wish they weren't spoken of, you may have been referring to Alec... well he has now responded to allegations about bad parenting based on that voicemail message...
Adam: ALEC-GATIONS!


Pick Your Poison
The topic of this Music Monday was the most annoying songs ever. On his list Danny had Four Non-Blondes' "What's Goin' On". Which Adam said sounds like "Don't Worry, Be Happy. He then sang the vocal melody to it over the Non-Blondes' verse and fit almost perfectly.

William Shatner guested in the middle and shared his #1, the Star Trek theme.


Guest: Jamie Kennedy
Jamie Kennedy was in studio to promote not only Kickin It Old School, but another project as well. A documentary called Heckler about, you guessed it. The movie will be debuting at the Tribeca Film Festival this Friday alongside Adam's new movie, The Hammer.

Adam: Would it be ironic if in the middle of The Heckler I stood up and yelled "This documentary sucks!"?


The segment began with Brian playing an excerpt from Jamie Kennedy's standup DVD where a lady interrupts his story about a waitress, informing him that "server" is the correct term. Adam gave voice to a HUGE PET PEEVE OF MINE...

Adam: Yeah, there's a lot of people who try to correct people through nomenclature. "We're not waitresses, we're SERVERS..." First off server sounds more degrading. You're my servant, my "server" rather than waitress?
Danny: A waitress brings you your food, a server peels your grapes and then feeds them to you.

The worst one around for me is midgets wanting to be called "little people". Saying someone's a little person sounds WAY more offensive to me. It's like you're looking at their physical size and making an assumption about the individual as a whole.

Egh, I''m sounding a little too P.C. myself. I vote for "vertically challenged". Or how about "Afro-American". Let's move on.

Imus's Shadow
Prisoner David called from the joint, giving everyone information on just what the hell it means to be in lockdown. Because he was, he said he had to use the "Puerto Rican phone". The crew noticed this when the recorded warning that makes sure the person on the other end knows the call is coming from a prison facility was in Spanish.

Adam: Alright Prisoner David, call us next week if you're not in fact in lockdown... and this time just for fun pick up the Chinese phone, or the Japanese phone... I want to hear all the different dialects and accents.
Danny: What happens if you pick up the Mexican phone?
(conversation continues, then after David hangs up..)

Adam: Yeah, I was going to make a bad joke about the Mexicans having their family in the joint anyway... it's more of an intercom than it is a phone... but that would be in poor taste and that's why I didn't do it.

Well played Ace!

Show Clips-- My Picks: Teresa's Blind Date is very funny, and the interview with Stone Cold Steve Austin (more specifically, towards the end when Adam makes his pitch for him to star in the movie he's currently got in development, Pedif-Isle).
