Last night I stumbled upon a show called Joe Pera Talks With You and became an instant fan. The show is a take on those awful and pretentious Postcards From Nebraska they used to do on CBS Sunday Morning – and maybe a touch of Garrison Keillor. . . or maybe this is what would have happened if Garrison Keillor had any talent.

I loved the entire first season (every episode is free to watch on Adult Swim) – but Episode 6: Joe Pera Reads You The Church Announcements is my favorite. I have lived much this episode:

• Discovering a song on the radio.
• Calling the station and begging to play the song again.
• Bothering other stations trying to hear the song again.
• Listening to the song over and over again.
• Inviting the pizza guy in to listen to the song.
• Leading the congregation in the song even if it isn’t appropriate.
• And on and on and on and on. . .

Season two of Joe Pera Talks With You was announced yesterday. I can’t wait.
