TV’s Moments of Joy: Elvis Costello Dog

Wipeout: The Game – You may recall that last week we were very excited to learn about the existence of a Wii game based on Wipeout.Well, just one day later, EJ received a copy in the mail from his favorite sister.(Note:EJ actually has two sisters and is publicly committing to this one as his favorite.) Now, we have a history of buying video games based on television shows, and we are frequently disappointed.(The Sopranos: Road to Respect, why must you hurt us so?)But Wipeout is ridiculously fun – the nature of Wipeout lends itself really well to the Wii gameplay, and the obstacles are straight out of the show.In fact, it even features the new obstacles from the current season, which is pretty awesome. And there are even adorable animated versions of the Johns and Jill, along with their voices providing commentary.We’re having a blast, and it’s a great break from Red Dead Redemption, because seriously, they expect us to kill a bear with a knife?Who comes up with stuff like that?
