Sure, Battlenerd Gaspastica is returning on January 16, and Lost is back January 21—but F-bomb them! I have a new favorite show—a 25 year old Japanese kids program entitled “Kure Kure Takora,” which loosely translates to “Gimme Gimme Octopus.” See, it’s about this octopus and his friend… I think it’s a gourd or maybe a peanut… and they meet up with a computer who eats garlic, and… OH! I almost forgot about the ghost with a butcher knife, and… ah, screw it. Just watch.

Want more? Yes, you do. GO HERE!

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)

  1. I saw some of this show once on a found footage DVD compilation I rented from the bizarre section at Movie Madness. It’s great!

  3. Seen them all….like 5 years ago, but still good.

    Chombo is a squash…and Tororo (the spirit) has many more evil tricks…like the vinegar spraying shower on his head.
