Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for September 10, 2018

What TV? That is television. The King was watching PUPPETS.

So it should be the PVC. Puppet-vision-channel. Or maybe the Pollyhand-vision-channel.

It’s really just in America that puppets are considered just for children. In other parts of the world, it’s seen as a universal form of theater for all ages. And in Japan, it’s a venerated art form.

Looks like the “TV” is in snooze mode too.

I’ll bet Jim Henson started out this way!

Strange looking test pattern.

Was that the Punch and Judy show?

Did he fall asleep with his thumb on the volume button?

Televison is one word, so TV takes no periods.

Shouldn’t the guy in the puppet stand be holding a test pattern?

Clearly, TV means “tired ventriloquist”.
