SINBAD: BRAIN DAMAGED (TV)
Summary
This comedy special features stand-up comedian Sinbad, who delivers his brand of wholesome, value-oriented material. Sinbad jokes about the following subjects, among others: the differences between how singers and comedians are introduced on stage before large crowds; playing in a band during halftime of a college football game; not having spending money when you finally get to college; college students doing their own laundry for the first time; the declining state of the educational system; waiting in line at fast-food restaurants and deciding to use the drive-thru window instead; driving home and realizing most of your order is missing from the bag; women who don't understand what the word "no" does to a man's courage; getting a hairweave and trying desperately to make it look natural; dating compared to being married; the arguments that go on between married couples; men believing they know how to dress stylishly until their wives tell them differently; the signs that show a person is deeply in love; women picking the perfect moment to begin an argument with their man; how men can never win an argument because the women's memory goes back too far; women who buy underwear for men; married couples going to the beach and the man feeling the pressure of not looking at other women; the joy of becoming a parent for the first time; the tremendous power a belt taken from your father's waist gives off; and a demonstration of how musical tastes have changed through the years. This program is closed-captioned.
