FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "TV Correspondence" published October 4, 2015 - Paige: What are you doing? Jason: Writing the producers of "American Ninja Warrior" to suggest they add nunchuck fighting to the competition. Paige: Didn't you write to them LAST week? Jason: No, last week, I wrote to "Hell's Kitchen" suggesting they make contestants cook over fire and brimstone. Paige: Oh, yeah. Jason: And the week before that was when I wrote inquiring if the plastic 1/100th-scale Millennium Falcon I was eligible for "America's Next Top Model." Speaking of which, I'm a little peeved they haven't gotten back to me. I put a lot of time into that paint job. Paige: Can I use some of this? I have a good casting idea for "The Biggest Loser." Jason: Didn't you write to them last week?

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Worth a Shot" published November 2, 2014 - TV: Are you the sort of person who gets their political information entirely from radio and television ads like this one? The sort of person who trusts a concerned-sounding voice like mine, without ever questioning the validity of what I'm saying and whether I'm not just reading off a script designed purely to manipulate you? If so, then be sure to make your voice heard by heading to the polls and voting this Wednesday! Peter: Mom, isn't the election on Tuesday? TV: This ad was paid for by the committee to fix government SOMEHOW.

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Stream Baby Stream" published May 25, 2014 - Andy: So have you kids done as I asked and come up with some goals and plans for the summer? Peter: We have, although it's more or less one big huge plan. Paige: Super huge. Peter: Consuming-every-minute-of-every-day huge. Andy: Good. I mean, I know I nag, but if I didn't, all you kids would do for three months is sit here and binge-watch the entirety of Netflix. Peter: Um... Andy: Peter, please tell me that's not your "one big huge plan." Paige: Oh, shoot...we skipped the third season of "Cake Boss"! Peter: In my defense, it's Paige's plan. I was just too lazy to think of one.

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "The Iron Sofa" published April 6, 2014 - Andy: You aren't watching "Game of Thrones," you're too young. Jason: You can't tell me what to do, woman! Andy: Excuse me?? I'm your mother! Jason: And I am your king! Now bow before my iron sofa and pray I forgive your insolence! Andy: Hello, HBO? I'd like to cancel... Jason: Mom, I was kidding! These aren't even iron! They're cardboard! Marcus: You said she was fine with this! That's why you said to attach them with super glue!

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Fourth Downton and Goal" published February 2, 2014 - Andy: Mind if I change the channel? "Downton Abbey" is about to start. Roger: You're joking, right? This is the Super Bowl! It's like the centerpiece of American culture! Beer! Sodas! Uncle Jim's clam dip! You'd seriously rather watch some British PBS tea-sipping drama? Just record it with the DVR and watch it after the game is over! Or if you really can't wait, go watch it upstairs on the little TV in our bedroom. But you're dreaming if you think Peter and I are going to let you waltz in here and change the channel, mid-third-quarter... Peter: Actually, I don't mind. Lady Rose is super hot. Roger: Can someone help me get this little TV to work?! Andy: I went with darjeeling this week. Peter: Jolly good choice, mother!
