A really big night for television

On the count of 10, Tony, press the gas and we'll mow them all down.

After a day away from the internet, I dragged myself to the television with a view to at least putting on a show of interest in the assembled talking-heads.

It must have been Let’s-Interview-Each-Other Big Incest Night, featuring political pains in the arse and their bitter bast frands of convenience.

Saviour Balzan hosts Jesmond Mugliett on Favourite Channel.

John Bundy hosts Robert Musumeci on Super One, in between having lunch or supper with him and his girlfriend three times a week.

Franco Debono stars on Xarabank with Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando’s wife Marlene, which should explain why Jeffrey took a night off from drillling holes in our television screens.

At the end of it all, I was left with just three pressing questions.

Why is Marlene Pullicino wearing a wedding ring?

Has Robert Musumeci begun to wear a lacquered black hairpiece?

Why does shadow transport minister Joe Sammut wear his suit with a short-sleeved shirt, exposing five inches of naked hairy arm when he speaks with his hands like Karmenu Vella?

I can’t believe we’re supposed to vote for these people.

God bless cable television.
