The year is 5581.

Humanity is extinct. The skyscrapers that were monuments to our civilization have long since toppled, plant life covering and eroding them. Our computers are dead, vast amounts of stored data erased by time and collapse of our digital networks. But all is not lost. Scouts from an alien world–excited to finally find another planet like their own–carefully dig through, inspect and catalogue the ruins, hoping to learn more about the species that was here before them.

One alien, sifting through the remains of a house, suddenly calls out to the rest of his search party. After days of constant searching he is the first one to find a fully intact book. His colleagues rush over, eager to witness the momentous occasion for anthropology. The alien gently turns the pages, flipping to the middle.

Two men–one soft and effeminate, one rough and masculine–are locked in a tender, naked embrace. Their eyes twinkle with desire, and flower petals frame the panel. This is our legacy.

Truly, we have become our own Romans.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, but a Flying V guitar is always a penis. And so is a giant space laser powered by rock and roll.

On this episode, we dive waist-deep into the summer season and–to our great surprise–don’t hate everything. In fact, most of the stuff we watched this week had potential. Whether they will actually improve is anyone’s guess, but it’s kind of nice to drop all but three shows immediately.

We also bring back the “Watcha Been Doing?” segment, which is largely taken up by me talking about Lollipop Chainsaw. Oh, and I guess Scamp graduated from his university or something. No big deal.
