Synopsis
Couch Potato Def. n. – a person who watches television excessively and whose only exercise is eating or changing the channel.
Meet Gerald. Gerald is your typical couch potato who enjoys chips, pizza, soda, and other junk foods. And, just like any other couch potato, he loves surfing the channels on the tube. However, the regular programming that Gerald finds available for viewing is anything but typical. These programs and commercials are spoofs of common shows or commercials that today’s couch potato may find while channel surfing. Some contain content very untypical of programming including sexual content and adult language. Gerald finds himself talking to the people he sees on his tv, sometimes agreeing, sometimes not.
