https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ddFdU5e_9E Weird Al Yankovic is known for parodying songs from famous singers. Now, he is dressing up as another Rocker for Reno 911. Weird Al is playing Ted Nugent on the Quibi series, and his episode is streaming now.
We don’t know why Weird Al is playing the gun-crazy singer, but you know he is going to do a bang-up job. Don’t shoot the messenger with bad jokes. I have a feeling the deputies of Reno’s sheriff’s office will protect me. Oh wait, that is a bad thing. No more bad jokes from me.
One thing that is not a bad joke is Reno 911’s revival.
Back in 1983, everyone was singing Beat It by Michael Jackson. Then a year later, we changed our tune to Eat It from Weird Al Yankovic. Now, 36 years later, several comedians are speaking the words of the latter song for a good cause.
David Cross asked Sarah Silverman, Jack Black, Al Franken, Patton Oswalt, Tony Hale, Paul Scheer, Amber Tamblyn, Rachel Bloom, Fred Armisen, Bryan Cranston, and some guy named Weird Al Yankovic to read the lyrics for the charity Lift.
We all are in this together, so remember to take time every day to laugh. They say it is the best medicine.
Weird Al Yankovic is normally a pale guy, but this Christmas he looks even more ghostly than normal. So much so, I expect him to haunt the singers, who would not let him record parodies of their songs, in their dreams. Since all those musicians committed a major bah humbug.
Weird Al Yankovic is touring the Orient and he ran into some fans. Since he cannot be rude, he made sure to pose with them. Thankfully, for him they kept their distance especially because there were so many of them.
