House: Poison

The Andy Griffith Show: The Rivals, from April 1963, isn’t really my favorite show, but it does have some cute moments. I’m just not really into these young love and puppy love stories that much, and essentially, that’s what this is.

Ok, I will admit it, while one of the stupidest Spongebob Squarepants epiosodes I’ve ever seen, the episode “Frankendoodle” is actually quite funny; in fact, it might be one of the funnier episodes I’ve seen in a while.
