What? This is easily the least Phillippe-like I can recall. Like Tuesday's, only six times as weird.

"Gin, Phillippe, and Beer: Three Bad Dudes."

And his otter mom wept.

I just saw the first season of The Office on DVD (and BBC America is rerunning it again starting this week, I believe), and it was easily one of the funniest shows I've seen in a long time.

To stay on topic: today's photo captions weren't funny.  But the very existence of the Rod Stewart musical makes up for that.

He gets with the ladies, but in the end they do not like him.

My guess would be Rod's bank account.

I'll preface this by saying that I've always kind of liked Rod Stewart.  I got home from work early a month or so ago and the TV was on to Oprah.  Rod was the guest and he was singing and posing for all the ladies.  When did Rod Stewart turn into Tom Jones/Anthony Newley/Engelbert Humperdink?  Sheesh.

I will probably be lynched by people who think The Doors were cool, but I've always thought this is what would have happened to Jim Morrison if he'd lived long enough.

I'm with you.  I like The Doors and all, but never understood the extent of Jim Morrison's appeal.

That is funny as hell.

It's like reality TV. No one wants to create anymore. Why else would the number one show on broadway for the last couple of years be a revival? And before that, one based on a Disney movie?

It's sad.

Ben Elton wrote the Rod Stewart musical? Am I reading that poster right? Ben Elton? Ben "Blackadder" Elton? Ben "Young Ones" Elton? Ben "Thin Blue Line" El- Oh okay, the guy who tossed off Thin Blue Line would do a musical about Rod Stewart.

Like I've probably posted elsewhere on this site: The Doors were a wedding band with a drunk "poet" up front.  The 1970s would not have been kind to them.  

Morrison would probably have ballooned up to about three bills, and the other three would have continued on with a new lead singer...perhaps Marty Balin of the Jefferson Whatever, or a post-Montrose Sammy Hagar.  They would be killed in a freak lightning accident at an open-air festival in Brussels; Morrison would subsequently slim down to 215 lbs. and appear on The Mike Douglas Show to announce his new career as a professional golfer.

OT: Not as awesome as the other strips this week, but still better than an actual hiatus.
