On This Week’s Show: Kevin and Neil go skinny-dipping in Lake Victoria, then scurry back to the Magical Studio in the Sky when they are attacked by a school of ancient piranhas. For this reason, they only saw two of the five movies that are being released this weekend. But that doesn’t stop them from talking about the flicks. Later, the Fat Guys talk about how Jason Friederg and Aaron Seltzer suck even more than vampires do, leading to a Fat Guy Five about Friedberg and Seltzer’s most out-of-place pop culture references. Then it’s DVD and Blu-ray suggestions, leading Kevin to recommend Cougar Town over Shakespeare. And Neil almost falls asleep.
