These Are a Few of David Cross's Favorite Things

Brooklyn Vegan is doing a series to close out the year, inviting comedians to offer a list of their favorite things of 2007. Today's list is provided by David Cross and includes, among other things, Battlestar Galactica, Soulja Boy's Crank Dat and BET's Hell Date:

This is a “prank” dating show on BET and it’s always (always!) funny.
The actors on it are f*cking brilliant. The premise is simple; one
person thinks they are going on a real reality blind date with a
stranger except that stranger is a highly skilled improv actor. Both
genders are victimized and almost 100% of the time if a guy is being
pranked he will sit and take the increasingly outlandish, sometimes
dangerous behavior because of course he wants to get laid. And if it’s
a woman she will lose patience and call the guy on his sh*t almost
immediately. There was one woman (victim) who threatened to cut a guy
if he continued his flirting. She was serious.
