My mother is a lovely and intelligent woman but, for some reason, she has a hell of time remembering titles of things, especially tv or radio shows. So she makes up her own. Fringe, for at least a season, was either "Filch" or "Flinch", which at least sound similar. The NPR show Wait Wait Don't Tell Me became "Hey Hey What Is It?" (which is still what my family calls it most of the time, because that's hilarious). The best one so far is So You Think You Can Dance which somehow at one point turned into "Hey, Look At You Who Thinks That You're Dancing Now". That is amazing.

Right now, the parentals and I are slowly watching through Inspector Lewis on Netflix. Tonight, over dinner, my mom looked at my dad and I and said, "So, do you guys want to watch Inspector Gadget tonight?"

It doesn't top SYTYCD, but it's pretty awesome.
