Are TV Shows on DVD Exposing the Holes of TV?
So we all went through this writer’s strike. Writers want more money, yadda-yadda-yadda. I get it, I support it. But while talking with Justin the other day, who only watches shows on DVD – he pointed out a lot of flaws in one of my on again-off again love affair TV Shows [...]
Guest Blog: Should I Be Offended?
Welcome Josh K, our Schadenguest blogger! He has been hired on to tell some stories of 10 years of living with Schadenfreude. But before we begin – Josh is hoping that the schadenfreude.net reader can help him out with a sticky social situation. Then he’ll get to the stories of when Witt passed out at [...]
Hulu? Yes. Hulu.
I, for one, am always looking for fun video to watch while “pretending” to do work. Come on. Everyone reading this right now is in the exact same boat I am. Don’t lie. Now, last week, I was busted by my boss for watching video when I was supposed to be [...]
A little Opening Day fun!
In celebration of the Cubs beginning yet another march to watching the playoffs on their plasma’s here’s a little clip from Schadenfreude Radio. The experience of watching a Cubs game and a Sox game are linked by a rain delay. This clip contains most of my favorite jokes from Schadenfreude Radio, they’re all right here [...]
Search for Obama, Clinton up; XXX Still More Popular; Others
As my Grandpa used to say, “Don’t change horses midstream.” Even if that horse is f*!king some guy, apparently.
This is Our Year!
Seriously, this is the year that the Cubs let our Schadenfreude meathead “Todd Voorhies” sing the 7th Inning Stretch. I think he missed the deadline last year for the big contest, but now he is serious about winning this year. Voorhies can break the curse.
Imaginary Friends!
Chicago Magazine is out. So they dressed us up in furry costumes (bear, tiger, bunny, elephant) and posed us with a little girl from the Ford Agency. The best part is that they took this picture in two takes – one with just the little girl and Kate and then one with just the boys [...]
The Post Oscar Season Movie Choices
Seriously, what movie was I supposed to enjoy this past weekend? 10,000 B.C.? Shutter? College Road Trip? Meet the Browns? Drillbit Taylor? Supehero Movie? The Other Boleyn Girl? Stop-Loss? Vantage Point? Under the Same Moon? Zula Patrol: Animal Adventures in Space? Super Double Maxx? [...]
I don’t want to be a pain in the ass…
But I can’t find my second volume of Just Say Yo. Sandy, I’m pretty sure I lent it to you in 1993, could you poke around your basement, tell me what you come up with? Appreciated.
CTA Improves Customer Service? Right.
We did this sketch for our radio show in 2003. Seriously, that was 5 years ago and the El is still a piece of crap. This comes from the news that they are going to one track for both trains for the summer. This is specifically about EL operator communication. Easy breezy.

Remember Swamp Thing? Remember Adrian Barbeau?
Douche of the Day: Celebrity Chefs
I finally turned the tv on last night for fifteen minutes. I think WKU lost, I blame their mascot. But also I saw an ad that assumed I loved what they were pushing. I think it went something like – ”Since you love this awesome thing, you’re going to love this awesome thing.” It was a [...]
80’s Ballad Friday
It’s been a while. Sorry about that. Now that we are done with our WTTW pilot taping, we can get back to the more important things in life: surfing YouTube for awesome 80’s ballads. How did I miss this one? It has a lady. It has really bad graphics. It has a limber [...]
And We’re Clear!
That’s TV talk for we finished shooting the pilot for WTTW’s new comedy show “IL-Informed”. Thanks to all who came to the live taping yesterday. The show came together great over the 3 days of shooting and we just might have a show on our hands! We loved watching the audience react to jokes [...]
Best Celebrity sighting ever – NSFW
The clip is NSFW, by the way – this is just text. Harmless harmless text. So I’ve been in a funk because I’d rather be in Chicago makin’ with the TV Schadenfreude style, or even posting on the site, which always catches the tail end of the sleep/post coinflip at the end of a long [...]
