This winter has been particularly bad. Lucky for me my dear husband thought ahead to all the snow days I will spend trapped in our living room, glued to the couch and bought us satellite TV(expertsatellite.com). It has been a real life saver and I cannot express how happy I was to be able to watch my favorite cartoon, Home Movies on it. Even though Home Movies is animated, it is definitely not for kids. It use to come on Adult Swim on cartoon network. Adult Swim was the late night cartoon network full of awesome adult cartoons like Space Ghost: Coast to Coast, Futurerama and of course, my favorite, Home Movies. Home Movies was produced by Soup To Nuts and is about a group of kids and the movies that they are always filming in their basement. It had the lead characters of Brendon, Melissa and Jason and the always drunk soccer coach, Coach McGuirk. It had a variety of other characters like Brendon's mom, Melissa's dad and other students but no one could outshine the character of Coach McGuirk. Even now I see other things that he has done voiceovers for and immediately picture the character as McGurik. There is no mistaking that voice and in my head he will always be the drunken coach. I can't wait to settle into the couch with the dear husband to watch another episode.
