Chicos, and the Man!
The editors are, like the Monz, big fans of the tv show "Lost." Their weekly Lost watching experience ("ha! Lost airs reruns more often than not!" - media editor) is always marked by a moment of meloncholy sadness. Why? Because ABC airs "Freddy," right before Lost. Freddy stars Freddy Prinze Jr., and in an homage to his late father, the production credits end with Sr.'s classic "Looooking Goood!" soundbite from the hit sitcom "Chico and the Man". We were also reminded of this when reading about this Chico, the first Arab chartopper on the British pop charts, which is ironic because the editors have heard Latino comics (like Freddy Prinze Sr. was) joke about being mistaken for Arabs.
Enough with these chicos, what's up with the Man? Well, there's no mistaking Monz' stay-at-home lunch: turkey sandwich. "Turkey is usually boring, but not this turkey. Oh no, this turkey kicks ass! Gobble, gobble, gobble, Monz is gobbling." We are resisting the urge to use "turkey" in an editorial comment about "Freddy."
