The funny thing with my weird-o brain that doesn't work and probably never did is that after forcing Gadget and the Gadgetinis into my head and making me review it's Final Episode in a kind of weird blog post series I do. It is a kind of weird blog post series to discuss the Final Episodes of old TV shows, right port? Well I believe portnoyd THE JERK said that he would like to hear about the Final Episode of this show. At least I think so. I am not going back to read PORTNOYDS BAD COMMENTS THAT IN NO WAY IMPROVE MY BLOG. My brain is now making me watch this show's Final Episode because I have to talk about it. Even if Portnoyd never asked for it. It's mostly because It feels like I should have put it in the Final Episode anyway, it had two seasons and a decent number of episodes (over 50 I'm sure). It felt like something I should have Final Episode'd to begin with, so despite it being past my date of shows to do I'm still doing it. Piss off, bitches.
So, if you didn't read my first post on this series and I don't blame you, it was not great. Fries With That? was a sitcom created for the Canadian FAMILY channel called YTV or Youth Television. I don't care what people say that's what it stands for. There aren't many Y words. It does not stand for Yukon TV or Yo-Yo TV. Do not argue with me this jerk-os! It was a very cheap production. Canada makes some very good memorable unique things but also it makes some cheap cheap crap that was made just to force onto Canadian TV. Canadian TV needs enough content that has Canadians working on it. This was one of them. It had two seasons in 2004 and stay on YTV until 2010. This show looks and feels like something made in the late 1990s and was still on TV until 2010.
So what is this show about? It's about a bunch of unremarkable and not very funny characters that worked at a burger joint. They would do plots that involved teenager shit and uh burger joint goofiness. It stared the guy who's name I forget and I just do not care to look up who also starred in Radioactive. He actually owns a comics/collectiable show in French Canada. SOmewhere in Quebec I guess. I would like to visit it but probably not talk to him. I would not want to break his heart when I say I didn't like him or those shows. He really does try his hardest but man he is not a very funny actor. I'm sorry guy who's name I forgot and don't care to look up because I just do not give that much of a shit.
Weird, it seems like we will be having a LITTLE CHRISTMAS IN MAY because uh this Final Episode is a Christmas episode. I will not be waiting for Christmas because I want this show to go back into the recesses of my memory and never return. I cannot find who wrote this and I don't blame them. It might be on the episode but I don't care enough to look them up now so I'm going to discuss the director of this episode. His name is Adam Weissman and he was born in New York City on January 8th, 1958. His first show was Welcome Freshman, a Nickelodeon show I never saw ever up here. I bet portnoyd was a big fan. or hated it. Portnoyd seemed to hate everything so I'm going to guess he actually hated it. Anyway he worked on a lot of American and even Canadian things. He worked on A live action Never Ending Story show. Yes apparently that movie trilogy had a tv show. It also had an animated show. I do not think either of them would be any good!
So our episode starts up with the Tall Girl telling bad jokes around a Christmas tree. The customers do not like it. I don't like it. Nobody likes it! She calls for Asian Girl who plays an Elf but it's a Fantasy Role Playing kind of Elf! Not Santa's Elf! She hits Tall Girl with an arrow and nobody laughs. Canada dies a little inside. The Boss of these chucklefucks finally comes in and gets them to stop. They are like but we are rehearsing for our Christmas show! for the Orphans! Lady I can tell you the Orphans don't want this garbage. The Boss tells Short Girl that he hates Christmas! Oh no! Will we get the 952852095th Christmas Carol parody and or take???? I hope not because I actually like A Christmas Carol.
There's bulky's Christmas mascot Ralph the Christmas Guy. He's finally here giving out free meal coupons or whatever the fuck. The extras seem to be happy about it. The Boss finds out that it's the Head Office Guy. Whatever happened to calling him Heady Office and pretending Office is pronounced differently. That's at least a joke! Anyway The Boss is annoying to Head Office Guy and then they go to the crew talking about how he won't let them leave early. Then they ask where is Stupid Girl and then she comes out as and Easter Bunny. You know writing stupid characters that can still be actual characters is really hard because it's a fine line you have to walk. There's a point where people just go "no, not a single person is that stupid" and I believe this is one of those cases. I cannot believe any human being no matter how comically stupid would get those two mixed up and be able to actually do anything in life. A person that stupid would not even be able to get the fucking bunny costume on.
Oh, she wants to play the Easter Bunny as he is a complex character and the Christmas Characters are boring... that's somehow lamer than what I bitched about and I'm leaving it in. It's what happens when you watch 3-5 minutes of something and then write it down which is how I do it. It's a weird way of doing it but I like it. Whatever. Oh no Heady Office doesn't like CHRISTMAS MARLARKY and the crew are going to sing and dance and have Christmas FUN aka CHRISTMAS MARLARKY. Oh no what will THE BOSS do!!!! There's also some EASTER MARLARKY going on with the Easter Bunny which this character thinks is a Superhero. Some of this could be amusing if they weren't trying so, so hard. OH NO HEADY OFFICE SAW THE CHRISTMAS MARLARKY!!! THE BOSS IS IN TROUBLE NOW!!!
Oh no Heady Office in his RALPH THE CHRISTMAS GUY get up has just said Bulky's the Restaurant they work at will stay open later! Oh no! The Orphans! He actually loves the music because it brought in a few more customers apparently. It still looks like the same regular old extras from before to me! One of the extras looks like he's mentally disabled! I don't know why I even mentioned that! Now they all gripe and moan about how they are stuck here. I guess it's time to bring back to Christmas Spirit to The Boss, which is what this episode was hinting at all along. I hope it's wacky!!!!!!! They force the last customer out of the store and then just as they are about to leave the snow closes the door. The Phones and Cellphones dont work. The back door is also forced closed! Oh no! THE ORPHANS! THOSE PRECIOUS ORPHANS! I get the feeling the Orphans won't be too sad they won't get to hear these terrible terrible idiots music.
Oh we finally find out that the Boss' reason for hating Christmas is that he didn't get a toy he wanted and he now hates Christmas. Wow. I gotta give the show this much, I thought they would have to bring the Christmas Spirit back to him and that's how they would get out early. Not getting stuck in the Restaurant. Another story plot that you could totally miss is The Jerk Guy saying he was doing it for a girl named Susie but it turns out he was doing it for the Kids afterall!!!! CHRISTMAS SPIRIT EVEN REACHES THE JERK WHO JUST WANTS TO HUMP!!!!! IT'S WONDERFUL. The Stupid Girl tried to climb through something to the roof. I don't remember and I stopped caring. Sorry. Go somewhere else if you want better writing for FRIES WITH THAT?
The Heady Office comes back and even he gets hit with the Christmas Spirit after they mention the Orphans! his mom worked at an orphanage! So he gives them a 2 dollar bulky's coupon! What a Christmas Gift! They get to leave and the Boss finds the toy he wanted under the Christmas tree in the middle of the store! He loves Christmas again too! Wow! This sucks ass! It's not funny or well done or anything. I can't even give it credit for being the one Final Episode that ended on Christmas because SEVERAL OTHER SHOWS DID TOO and I can't even give it credit for not doing A Christmas Carol parody BECAUSE THOSE OTHER SHOWS DIDN'T DO THAT EITHER! You suck, Fries With That? I hope I never have to see you again.
FINAL THOUGHTS: Next time I'm talking about a tv show that doesn't piss me off.
