Pickles by Brian Crane for August 26, 2022

At least he stopped changing channels….

He’s channeling his inner peace.

Trust me!!! It won’t “work” and I tried that many, many and many times!!!

/SHMIRK/

falling asleep in front a TV screen while there’s a program thereon is pretty much habitual for everybody

I can understand the urge, but predict it won’t work out well…

PS: In our house, Spouse controls the TV remote. Because she actually LIKES the dam‍n teevee.

It is very satisfying to pick the right show to sleep through.

There was a remote chance it would work

Earl was searching for the anti-Opal channel

Earl is really multi-talented!

That TV remote is probably the upper limit of Earl’s modern electronics capability, but he is a master of it. And the Mute button inventor should have won The Nobel Peace Prize.

I don’t know why, but today’s strip reminds me of Adam Sandler’s film “Click”…https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0389860/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_44

This cartoon is made interesting because the lovable Roscoe is in it : )

Can’t even escape into Dreamland without Opal pestering him.

Try taking the remote out of his hand. See what happens.

If only, Earl, if only.

I’m reminded of the Twilight Zone episode where the delete key worked on a wife.

Something tells me he’s not actually asleep……

This cartoon explains exactly why I no longer watch TV. I swear, Hubby doesn’t want to know what’s on – he wants to know what ELSE is on.

Sadly the mute button isn’t big enough to mute women

Earls not sleeping….just closed his eyes…

ROSCO REWLS

Dad used to act out in his sleep which was so entertaining to us kids. Once he was sound asleep in bed, carefully turning the upside-down pages of a book.

Even when asleep Earl’s a wonder!

It’s worth a shot. He can’t get her to shut up when he’s awake.

Hilarious!

Earl, I agree. Change it to the Lingerie Football League and leave it there and see how long that lasts.

LOL!

That works in comics … I just don’t understand ….

I think Nelson’s grandparents provide him with more entertainment than the TV.

If only….

Such does happen while asleep.

Channel surfing is not my favorite sport.

Even Roscoe is fascinated by this.

GAH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

My wife likes to switch back & forth, watching 2 or 3 shows at a time. I like to pick one show and watch it.
