Humor

I have discovered that I especially love the humor of the unexpected. . . frequently a non sequitur.

I watched "'Til Death" at 7 p.m. on Sunday. Obviously, anything relegated to that time slot is of questionable quality, and that Brad Garrett sitcom is spotty at best. But this week, it featured the comic genius of Martin Mull, Fernwood's Barth Gimble. His character teaches at the same school as Brad. When he is absent for a couple of days, Brad goes to his house to investigate. He discovers that Mull is an even greater hoarder than he had supposed, and as he views the accumulation of trash from the doorway, Mull entreats, "Come in; you're letting the flies out."

Turnabout is hilarious.
