The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for October 22, 2020

it was already done.

That last panel must have taken some planning. :-)

Gladys, you were made for each other.

That reality show takes place in every home.

A show about a guy who is constantly ridiculed by his boss, friends and family? Yeah, it’s been done.

Perhaps as a sleep aid.

What channel did you say it’s on?

Only a born loser would watch a TV show about a born loser watching a TV show about a born loser.

They’re gonna put me in the moviesThey’re gonna make a big star out of meWe’ll make a film about a man that’s sad and lonelyAnd all I gotta do is act naturally. Songwriters: Vonie Morrison / Johnny Russell

You’re lucky we sneer at you in print, my man! :-p

It could get exciting, as in: “This here’s a story ‘bout Brutus and and Gladys too – Two old lovers with nothing better to do – Than sit around the house, get high, and watch the tube – And here’s what happened when they decided to cut loose….” (Apologies to Steve Miller)

Cue Xzibit!

It’s no more boring or stupid than what people are already willing to watch.

They do, though in the art form of cartoon comics. I look forward to the “show” everyday…..

sure they would

I watch one reality show. It’s called “The First 48,” and it follows detectives as they try to solve murders. It’s not scripted, and it’s fascinating. I just hope they don’t cancel that just because it shows cops in a good light.

I would watch Brutus before I would watch the Kardashians.

That pizza parlor isn’t in DC and has a basement, right?

How about a ‘Reality’ show about the exciting, break neck pace of the Tea Cozy industry?

COMING SOON: A new reality show about a guy who orders pizza and eats it while watching TV…

you’d be surprised

That was basically what Beavis & Butt Head did…

Gogglebox.

Little does she know……But the title of this strip fits both the tv show and the audience perfectly
