If Nintendo aggressively attacks these daytime shows with Wii Fit, the game has a real chance of exploding in America. Even my wife wants one but I'm hoping she gets distracted in the next two weeks and forgets the stupid thing exists.


Lock her in a room and pipe in Ziggy Stardust. She'll thank you for it later.

Not a bad idea. Maybe taste in music can be forced through osmosis or something.

I feel really sorry for these two boys:



Ellen,
My boys and I are SO excited for you! We are so glad you and Porsha can finally get married. We come home everyday and watch your show. They are 12 and 10 and I teach, so it is so awesome to look forward to winding down with you and a bowl of Apple Jacks! That is our Happy Hour! If you choose to read this on the air, please give a shout out to Joshua (age 10) and Logan (age 12) as well. They LOVE your show and don't understand why we can't afford to fly all the way to California and come see you.

You don't like it either I guess?


It's not that I don't like it, it's more that I don't care about it.

Ellen likes videogames and often uses them on her show.

She's had Guitar Hero 3 on there twice, once she got a 11(or 9?) year old kid to play Dragonforce on expert, the other time she played herself.

So this isn't a surprise.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Yeah, I'm hoping my girlfriend forgets about it. Meanwhile, back to DDR...

Too much Ellen hate. She's an awesome person. Not to mention hilarious. Lucky audience members too.

Pfft. She'll probably give away MGS4 next month.
