Vote No On Outsourced

Come November, vote no on crap television!

This week is the final week for us American’s to step into a voting booth and vote on the issues we care about most. We’ve been inundated with junk mail and ads every other commercial break, but I want to take time out discuss a serious topic you should care about. Though November 2nd is the final day your vote will be counted, Thursday night on NBC [or NBC.com depending on how you watch the network] is a night where your vote will decide if public television will spiral further into Armageddon. People, when you sit down and you see a little television show starring a ‘stock white 30-something bro’ educating an office setting of naive New Delhians, I want you to think about your future and how terrible Outsourced is.

Outsourced’s only positive contribution to society is that its giving the talented Dietrich Bader work for the next year. This is where you come in. If you see a commercial, credits or anything affiliated with the show, click that s**t off! There are two jokes in Outsourced. One relies on this supposed culture clash between this American white man making fun of the naivete of Indian culture while showing them the foreign and strange ways of Americans [see also: The Balloween episode].  The second joke is far too rote. Don’t Indian people who speak English sound hilarious? Heck, there’s a character named Manmeat on the show, so how could that not be funny? Making fun of how Indian people talk and how strange their very Indian names sound was about as funny when I heard it the first hundred times on The Simpsons. And with all due respect, The Simpsons did it better.

So, my fellow Americans, you have a choice. You can contribute to the longest, unfunny Apu joke running on NBC. Or you could make a stand, right here and right now. Tell your friends who watch Outsourced, that doing so kills Jesus or whatever diety they worship. If they are atheist, tell them Outsourced is funded by all religions and in someway contributes to the anti-atheist movement [there is one right?]. I’ve watched NBC air such gems as the reboot of both Knight Rider and American Gladiators. Both equally offensive by the their own right and still managed to be somewhat entertaining [taste did not apply]. However, Outsourced is the Alamo in regards to what you [the viewer] will tolerate. It is a show that spits in your face while asking you to tune in each Thursday for the same joke. So this Thursday, vote no on Outsourced and in doing so, you’re voting yes for freedom.
