Best Show gets referenced in The Onion, yet again.
« on: January 04, 2010, 02:07:39 AM »

I like to geek out on Joss Whedon's Dollhouse, and I have a habit of going to the Onion's AV club to read their episode reviews after watching the show on Hulu.

So anyway ... their latest Dollhouse recap has a tip of the hat to an old classic:

Quote
1,700 words and not one spared for Ballard, whose brain was picked clean by Alpha and could only be revived by Topher’s installation of “active architecture.” To quote Jon Wurster, half of my favorite comedy team, Scharpling & Wurster, Ballard was “madder than a rattlesnake at a Thai wedding.”
