While listening to Radio One,
I decided that this is no fun.
Simon Bates played our tune,
The unspeakable loon.
I reached for my elephant gun...
--- Bill Wall

In decades past, people would listen
To the sounds of their radios hissin';
But with TV today,
Kids get carried away,
Watchin' violence, swearin' and kissin'.
--- Cap'n Bean P9812

Mr Limbaugh seems hearty and hale;
His rehab program didn't fail.
If he's treated in court
The way that he ought,
Perhaps he can broadcast from jail.
--- Arnie Schoenbrun P0402

Rush Limbaugh is on day and night,
Espousing his views from the Right.
He loves making waves,
So he rants and he raves,
Which causes the Left to ignite!
--- RenWa

Mr Limbaugh, the dean of hypocracy,
Shot his mouth off on drugs and pornography.
His doping's a crime,
But he'll never do time,
'Cause he's part of the right wing plutocracy
--- Arnie Schoenbrun P0312

On Rush Limbaugh's ass can be found,
A message, by the hole black and round,
And if you have just the right light,
Then you just might
See: "Dangerous inflated above 200 pounds!"
--- Cruelty Jones

A good Limbaugh groupie named Grover,
(Always jacked up, but not sure what over)
Was forced out of spite,
Because no one would write,
To flame himself fifty times over.
--- Nat Koch

There once was a steatopygian named Rush, (fat-assed)
Whose cranium was packed full of mush.
He would bellow and bray
'Til the end of the day,
While dimwitted Ditto Heads gushed.
--- Anon

Because I am glued to the telly,
My body's a big blob of jelly.
I eat where I squat
And I don't leave this spot,
Not even to empty my belly.
--- SFA

An actor named Adrian Paul,
Was muscular, handsome and tall.
"Oh! Beefcake for you,
I just will not do!"
He said as he nearly bared all.
--- Karen Droms

I have heard that once Alex Trebek
Wished to govern the province, Quebec.
But his mom said, "You're mad.
Get in show business, lad."
Did that jeopardize Alex, you 'spect?

A radio makes a neat sound,
But the present-day public has found,
That the picture you see
On a large-screen TV
Is the thing that most truly astounds!
--- Cap'n Bean P9812

TV language is crude, I insist;
The censors should make them desist.
Profane phrases I hear
Are assaulting my ear.
When I hear them I really get pissed.
--- Arnie Schoenbrun P0510Q

The "Baywatch" girls all are so pretty;
They show inside thigh, navel and titty.
But though it might seem
Like a scriptwriter's dream,
Their dialog's not very witty.
--- Jim Weaver Collection

I turned on the TV today;
The bad news just won't go away.
Like a message from Heaven,
Grabbed my three fifty seven,
And blew the old Zeneth away.
--- T Arnold

Two Mavericks were Bret and Bart;
You can hardly tell them apart.
One was James Garner,
Other some 'furriner';
Can't wait for the reruns to start.
--- Jack Franklin

The experts now claim to detect
Connections 'twixt what we select
On TV to view
And lower IQ.
But is this a cause or effect?
--- John Miller

To most, it doesn't sound daffy
That TV turns wits into taffy.
But keen occupation
With experimentation
Uncovers plain facts -- for a fee.
--- Bruce

Well TV is not where it's at.
They censor all mention of twat.
But in AJL
These things we learn well;
So please, keep it under your hat.
--- SFA

If you happen to watch Channel Four,
Then you must be a bit of a bore.
You can see Richard Whitely,
Not once, but twice nightly.
I don't think I can take any more!
--- Bill Wall

We teenagers are drawn to TV;
At the ads we all chortle with glee.
We haven't the money.
This fact isn't funny;
Our parents say it's not grown on a tree.
--- Arthur Pattaffy Q

As much as this chick Courtney Love
Wants to give her career a quick shove,
She's not really shocking,
Although quite self-mocking
And almost as peaceful as a dove.
--- Julie Wiskirchen

Steve's activeness thrills all his mates,
And his eagerness never abates.
"Crikey!" he'll shout.
Now the only way out
Is the croc-based demise that awaits!
--- Rory Ewins

Steve Irwin's a hero, alright,
For taming the crocodile's might.
But rumors are rife
That he's ditching his wife
Because, when in bed, she won't bite.
--- SFA

Ellen DeGeneres said, "It's true
I have loved and more than a few.
But I told Kathy Lee,
'If you'll just marry me,
I swear I'll always be Frank with you.'"
--- Loren C Fitzhugh P9711 a

Kathy Gifford has been in a stew--
With her ex, she's have nothing to do!
So bid Ellen Degeneris,
Dreaming of her 'mons veneris'
"Kathy, can I be frank with you."
--- CB T9710a

TV's hit of last year was bridal.
None of the brides' lives was an idyll.
What ABC thinks best
Is a move to the west:
Desperate Horsewives, the new title.
--- Tom Patton P0609

Whenever I watch Donahue,
And I look an his strange retinue,
I see some weird folks,
Whom he always provokes,
And I saw a cute cockatoo, too.

(And delinquents who fornicate, too.)
--- Al Willis P9601

It's amazing, guru Dr Phil
Will quite likely earn at least a mill.
He is a self made winner,
Using techniques by Skinner,
And he's never prescribed that first pill.
--- Loren Fitzhugh P0607

I once thought that time travel was true,
After watching too much "Doctor Who".
To visit a place
Other side of deep space,
But my TARDIS is not square and blue.
--- Anon

The Duke boys asked Cooter to rent
Equipment to straighten a dent.
Then he said, "Luke and Bo,
I must answere you, No."
They found out what accouterment!

(TV show 'Dukes of Hazard")
--- John Dohner P8801

I trust there's no village named Ewingham,
Else poets would rhyme it with "viewing 'em,"
Or concoct some cheap verse
About girls who coerce
Reluctant young lads into screwing 'em.
--- Armand E Singer 658

I thought Fess was a guy that played Davey,
But find it's a bar, staight or wavy,
In heraldry's place,
That sets up the space
For griffins, gargoyles and gravy.
--- Chris Papa

This is file ctm

A actress called Lucci, on cable,
Whose Emmy near-misses are fable,
Played Erica Kane,
Eighteen years without gain,
But the nineteenth confirm Kane was able!

In the U.S. where TV's the rage,
It affects viewers of every age.
Through commercials and yacks,
We fill up on snacks.
TV Week is our new obit page.
--- Tom Patton P0609

Our Gillian comes to consult
On phenomena weird and occult,
In her role on the X-files
And they're not the sex-files;
Her fan club is male and adult.

(Gillian who?)
--- Satori Press

Our Resident Assistant is Dez;
I heard that she is a Lez.
But what makes her fidget
Is the dick of a midget;
I caught her with Herve Vallachez!
--- Jim Weaver Collection

Every evening my TV tube glows;
I love all this season's new shows.
There's urbane conversation,
Advanced education
And a red headed beauty who blows.
--- Arnie Schoenbrun

If you regularly watch ITV,
(Which I gather is on Channel Three),
They have jolly good breaks
With commercials for cakes;
It's the programs that mystify me.
--- Bill Wall

Jack Paar remains my kind of guy;
At times he was bashful and shy.
He'd expose superstitions
And tweak politicians.
And every so often he'd cry.
--- Jim Weaver Collection

There once was a fellow named Jerry,
Whose program, to some, was quite scary.
But average folks say
That Springer's okay --
He treats all degenerates fairly.
--- Brad Gianden P9804

Why isn't there anything on TV?
It's getting more and more trashy;
Turn it to Springer;
He's a real humdinger
With the cheaters, liars, and lezzies.
--- Anon

When Sidney appeared on TV,
Pretending that he was a she,
He wound up on Springer
Between an old swinger
And a blond with a dwarf on her knee.
--- Nancy Ashbaugh P0105

That fine TV actress, Joan Cleaver,
Is down to earth--never a diva.
On her wholesome TV show,
Critters wander to and fro,
But we never can see Cleaver's beaver.
--- Arnie Schoenbrun P0412

I wonder how John Logie Baird
Would have prospered if only he'd dared
To put on the air,
Sweet pictures of bare
Young ladies? How would he have fared.
--- Tiddy Ogg

You may treat this notion with scorn,
But to corner the market in porn,
Much wealth would accrue
In those years, so few,
Before his TV sales were gorn.
--- Tiddy Ogg

Judge Judy has a television show;
Her Justice is blow by blow.
She sits on a bench --
What a fierce looking wench!
But she's just a big yenta, you know!
--- Larry M

Julia Child said, "Let's lunch and we'll chat."
The champagne she sent back. It was flat.
Although she let stay
The delicious pate,
She remarked, "I would like fries with that."

(Julia Child - famous TV chef for French cooking)
--- Loren C Fitzhugh

Last week, if you saw Panorama,
It's clear that Ken Clarke is a charmer.
He's fat, and he smokes,
And tells terrible jokes,
Like the one about Huntley and Palmer.
--- Kevin Hale Q

Have you seen TV star Kirstie Ailie?
She must spend all her time in the galley.
Oh my, how she's spread
From her toes to her head.
She is now more boulevard than alley.
--- Tom Patton P0502

Kitty Russell did not prompt moral roars
In "Gunsmoke", behind swinging doors.
Though among her long suites
Were her young prostitutes,
And "A heart big as all of outdoors".

Him from doing his job as a cop.
When his unit's SWAT team
Stopped at Karl's Krispy Kreme,
Kojak sucked on a big lollipop.

When Telly Savalas would play
A role that required a toupee,
He would purchase a wig
To handle the gig,
And was ruggedly handsome, they say.

The two from the Superman flick
Turned out to be two kinds of sick.
He fell off his horse,
She's loony, of course,
So they took her away really quick.

Who carried 'round plenty of cargo.
She played Lois Lane
Before going insane,
And her brain turned into escargot.

Mary Tyler Moore was a snob;
She knew what to do with a cob.
Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring,
As Princess she did ring
The chimes of Buffalo Bob!

(on the Howdy Doody Show)
--- Annie Jay

What of Mary Tyler Moore?
That freshly scrubbed girly next door.
She cried, "Mr. Grant!"
As he got in her pants,
"I never knew what that was for!"

When 5 and just starting at school,
TV programs for kiddies showed cruel
And unusual perversions
Or sexual diversions.
My favorite was "Muffin The Mule".

There most surely could be no dispute
That inventions should get our salute.
For the greatest invention,
There can be no contention;
It's that button, so simple, called "Mute."

Long before we had detente,
Napoleon Solo, that bon vivant,
Would eagerly flaunt
Ilya--the gallant
Brave, blond, cute Russian confidante.

Americans must always have fun.
If it isn't another, it's one.
Though it's rather harebrained,
At least they're entertained.
They're like Romans, when all said and done.
--- Warrick Elrod

On late night, they're still cloning Carson;
On Sunday it's some greedy parson.
And spaced in between
Is the juvenille scene.
How I long for the days of Greer Garson.

Has secrets she'll never disclose.
Except to her Gillian,

Odd viewers of Oprah's talk-shows.

Poor Oprah was arrested out back;
They found dope piled high in a stack.
When they lifted her dress,
'Twas a terrible mess;
They found forty pounds of crack!

A barb-wired type actress named Pam
Just might show a shoulder or gam.
Her Baywatch swimsuit
Is red and it's cute,
But for Playboy, it's doffed, thank you ma'am.

The network has managed to botch it;
Bill Clinton is trying to scotch it,
But (this is rare),
I really don't care.
I have no intention to watch it.

"The end of the world, I suppose,"
Complained an old lady named Bowes,
"Will just out of spite
Come on Saturday Night
And preempt all the good TV shows."
