Anyone else already sick of that tagline?
On a side note, tonight's show was pretty damn hilarious. But where was Luanne?
I'll be curious to see how RJ deals with the latest twist on the Nancy Gribble/John Redcorn situation.

She's like on vacation or something.

Funny you should mention it. So John Redcorn got shot in the posterior by a BB-gun booby trap, then says that that is taking the fun out of <whatever it is he's doing there, the visible part being climbing in the window in the range of vision of Dale's office using the power mower as a ladder>. If one little sting outweighs the other entertainment, it sounds like the other entertainment is mainly, um, climbing over the power mower. Another scene in the same episode shows an outside door to *the same room* on the adjacent wall just around the corner. It is certainly odd behavior around the house of the owner of the most guns in the Arlen Gun Club, who also has video-surveillance capability.
I don't know what it means. They are certainly maintaining the ambiguity at no small expense in production costs.
Nancy also chastised Hank for taking advantage of Dale's gullibility. And Hank didn't make any wisecracks about it, either.
And again we were misled by the promo clips, which didn't concentrate on a single termite larva; but then we're used to being misled by obvious hints.
This episode again shows the Gribble house on the garage/bedroom side of the Hill house. It also shows Dale's basement office under the garage (which strikes me as a little unusual) and Peggy's utility-room office apparently off the hallway on the only floor of their house.
I thought it was a nice bit of continuity that Dale had so much respect for Bobby's shooting skill. Bobby's reaction was priceless.
The way I saw it, it wasn't the sting of the B-B that's taking the fun out of it, but rather the absolute cluelessness of Dale taking the fun out of "it". (or is it feigned cluelessness?... Hmm)

I thought that is what they were talking about, cause In the scene, dale is stupider than I would ever think. Getting a bullet in your ass does not take the fun out of "it". What's the reason we have affairs? either we ain't getting any or we want to be dangerous(with the gribbles, hmmm seems like both), Dale being so dumb leaves you with no danger.

I think part of the "fun" as Redcorn would describe it is the sneaking around behind Dale's back. Dale's cluelessness takes the fun out because he's always pushing Nancy and John Redcorn together, so there's no need to sneak around.

Yup, that's what I meant.
This is beginning to SOUND like Dale...

I thought Tueday's episode was great! And yes, I was getting sick of that "Tuesday Night is Da Boom"! tag line myself!
DA BOOM IS HORRIBLE CRAP. WHAT TYPE OF PERSON USES THAT TYPE OF GARBAGE TALK AND OR THINKS IT SOUNDS COOL?
Ya better get used to it. I think it's their new slogan. :(

They didn't use it at all on the promos tonight (Sunday, April 25, 1999). It's done for.

Or so it seems. While they're keeping the same background music, it looks like the geniuses at Fox have decided to get rid of the announcer actually saying "Da Boom," in favor of just mentioning that it's now "Fox's New Tuesday Night." Something like that.

actually it looks like "Da Boom" is dead for next season, the Pj's is becoming a backup series, King of the Hill is moving to Sunday before the Simpsons, Futurama is going to be on Sunday after the Simpsons and Family Guy is moving to Thursday I think it was... guess it was too much animation for one night... fun while it lasted.. the shows were certainly more three dimensional than some of the crud they normally show on Fox Charles R.

The promo department finally killed it. It may show up for this week's, but that should be about it.

They can't even get the slang right! It's supposed to be "da bomb," not "da boom"!
I think it's made to be a joke
