Each week, I post the five funniest videos from the past week's Gotcha Media right here for you to enjoy. If I missed anything good, please don't hesitate to correct me in the comments below.
This was the week that
with Rick Sanchez and
with Carl Paladino. The two public figures made two particularly bigoted comments and -- hopefully -- will never be heard from again. Rick Sanchez made his
anti-Semitic remarks against Jon Stewart last Friday, so we had to wait the whole weekend until Monday night for
The Daily Show
to respond. Jon Stewart
it relatively easy on Sanchez, trying not to kick him when he was down. He did get
incredible montage in, juxtaposing Rick Sanchez with
The Office
's Michael Scott.
For the last couple of years,
Sesame Street
has aggressively been
in on the viral video game, posting videos to their YouTube channel that they know will
a wide
online. No parody has more viral
than the Old Spice Guy, so I'm only surprised it took this long for Grover to
his own version.
NBC's Thursday Night line-up had some solid offerings this week, particularly
The Office
's
Sweeney Todd
episode.
30 Rock
's
on diversity on TV was also a welcome meta-commentary. However, there seemed to be something missing on
Community
, which is often my favorite show of the night. Danny Pudi's Abed barely appeared in the episode, even missing out on the end credits where he always has a
with Donald Glover's Troy. Instead, we got Betty White
a brief re-appearance to spoil the plot of
Inception
. It wasn't until a few days later when
compilation video appeared on YouTube that I realized the true brilliance I had missed in the background.
