Nickelodeon’s new series “The Thundermans” begins this week and you can download an episode for free from iTunes. It’s the story of a superhero family, twins Max and Phoebe, their younger siblings Nora and Billy, and their parents Hank and Barb. The twins partake in a little sibling rivalry when Max plans to sabotage his sister’s dinner party, when they compete against each other in the Math Bowl, and when a prank war breaks out. The twins eventually start to work together as a pesky plant takes over the house, and they get into some ditch day trouble at school. Max must create a clone of Phoebe when she has to be in too many places at once, the twins help each other fill a big order at their new pizza parlor jobs, and much more. Watch this super family work together to use their extraordinary powers to create an ordinary life.
, featuring roasts honoring Bob Hope, Johnny Carson, Jimmy Stewart, Sammy Davis, Jr., Jack Benny, Lucille Ball, Kirk Douglas, Michael Landon, Jackie Gleason, Don Rickles, Joan Collins, and the man himself, Dean Martin. Roasting them are a full collection of 70’s luminaries, including Muhammad Ali, George Burns, Florence Henderson, Bette Davis, Phyllis Diller, and Milton Berle. A warning on the package cautions that the racial and ethnic humor of the era may seem inappropriate by today’s standards (on the other hand, if those folks ever heard the jokes at today’s events, they would be very surprised by the explicitly raunchy humor). “Keep in mind the tenor of the times, the bawdy party atmosphere, and the fact that many of these celebrities were friends who loved to give and take a good shot. The cigarettes are real, the drinks are free, and the camaraderie is heartfelt.”
