How many zombies does it take to direct a TV show?

EDIT: I thought I had lost this blog after accidentally back browsing. Alas it was saved, so I will post this in addition to another.

Recently I came across the first season of Ren and Stimpy, which is a TV show I use to enjoy the hell out of as a youth. I'm not sure if any of y'all have seen the show since it debuted back in the great era of 90's, but the show is absolutely ridiculous. The show is just, out right absurd, every aspect of it. Just youtube the log song, and you will get an idea. I really wouldn't be surprised to learn that the creators of this show loved to drop acid before crafting the story boards for each of the episodes of this show. Seriously, watch a few episodes, this shit is unreal. The irony of the situation is that back then parents didn't really know or seem to care what the hell us kids were watching, as its borderline kid appropriate. Good ole Ren and Stimpy, they made it at least a few seasons in, until a parent finally watched it and got it shut down.

On the topic of TV shows, I find it incredible ironic and awesome that the season finale of a incredibly popular zombie TV show is on Easter. Ironic, but why, well because it's zombie jesus day of course. Man dies, man rebirths, man is zombie. Happy Zombie Jesus Day, and will someone please pass the god damn ham!
EDIT: The Walking Dead, more like lets build you up for what could have been an awesome season finale, and then half way through the episode hire a team of amateur-film-student-college-hipster kids and have them finish out the season finale. As they say these days, EPIC FAIL.

Beer of the week, Ninkasi Brewing Company's Spring Reign. It's springy, lightly hopped, and pretty darn tasty. I'm fairly certain this brewery can do no wrong in my eyes, I still haven't tasted a beverage from these guys that I don't love (or at least like).
