Take me back, deja vu — BUMPED

FO3D Christian Toto has a timely reminder up over at Big Hollywood, but for those who inexplicably don’t come around there no more…

With all pardons for swiping a line from Van Halen …

Say nice things and people sometimes notice. Say glowing things here and here, and apparently even cooler people notice. That’s right, folks, in a scoop of sorts, as supplied by the kind folks representing the show’s media relations, Threedonia is very honored and privileged to announce the return of “The Goode Family” to television.

The Goode Family to Air on Comedy Central Beginning in 2010

New York, NY– “The Goode Family,” the satirical animated series from Mike Judge, John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky, will air on Comedy Central beginning January 6, 2010 in a secondary run.  “The Goode Family,” which first premiered in May 2009, is produced by Media Rights Capital, Ternion Pictures  and 3 Arts Entertainment.

The complete first season of “The Goode Family” will air on Comedy Central on Wednesday nights at 10:30 pm ET, giving vegans, lesbians, right-wing conservatives, Prius owners, Texas-rednecks and liberals-who-can–laugh-at-themselves a second chance to fall in love with the Goodes.

“Mike, John and Dave certainly turn the tables on liberals with this show. That’s not done very often on television, but the humor comes from skewering extremism and taking things too far, either to the left or the right,” said Modi Wiczyk, Co-CEO of MRC.  “We know Comedy Central viewers will embrace ‘The Goode Family.’”

“‘The Goode Family’ isn’t just about ridiculing liberals; It’s about tackling the issues most TV shows haven’t,” said creator and Executive Producer John Altschuler. “I mean where else are you going to see an episode about class warfare in the Lesbian community or the downside of consorting with eco-terrorists?”

With standards always changing, no matter how hard you try to be good, it’s virtually impossible these days . . . especially for the Goode family. Meet Gerald and Helen Goode, a couple who live by the motto WWAGD (“What Would Al Gore Do?”) Gerald, a college administrator, and Helen, a community activist, are determined to obliterate their carbon footprint on the planet: They’re zealous vegans, drive a hybrid, and recycle everything possible. Even the family dog, Che, is vegan. In the words of Helen, all the Goodes want to do is buy organic apples and call minorities by their right names. But despite their best efforts, something always goes haywire with their politically correct plans.

With the proverbial knock on wood, more news on any additional episodes of the show coming soon, as Radio Free Threedonia looks to secure interviews with Altschuler and Krinsky, who hopefully remember our days playing basketball in the 90s just enough not to hold it against me (they’re Tar Heel grads, and there’s a reason Penn State only wins NIT championships).
