Chapter 15
“Nobody’s thinking about it,
2“But it’s coming anyway,
3“And it’ll be here before you know it!
4“What is it?
5“It’s the great new fall season on the Harrier Television Network!
6“You say you like sitcoms?
7“Well, we’ve got ’em,
8“And they’re just exactly like all the others you’ve always loved,
9“Only more so.
10“Take ‘I Love Eddie’s Father,’
11“Please!
12“Eddie’s mom didn’t have a husband,
13“But her clock was ticking,
14g“And so she had a baby by artificial insemination,
15“Which Eddie didn’t know anything about,
16“Until the day he came across a very special hsyringe,
17i“In fact, a talking syringe,
18“Which was kind of a jmiracle.
19“Because every boy wants a father.
20“You’ll just roll in the aisles as Eddie’s dad tries to teach him a few of the finer points about being a aman.
21“The only thing is, ever since he got thrown away by the doc, Eddie’s father has been bliving in the streets,
22“And the education he’s giving Eddie is a lot more streetwise than Eddie’s mom would like,
23“Which is why she’s always sticking it to Eddie’s father,
24“And why you’ll stick with this great new show,
25“After the hilarious opening episode,
26“In which Eddie learns the facts of life,
27“In somewhat pointed terms,
28“And then dad gets boiled,
29c“To make it better.
30“But that’s just another day’s works,
31“On ‘I Love Eddie’s Father.’
32“Thursday nights at eight o’clock.”
