…there’s a pretty decent chance you’ll enjoy The Cheap Show…if only because it’s also a haven for sock-puppet humor.

If the names Betty Paraskevas and Michael Paraskevas mean something to you, then you probably have kids. They’ve written a ton of children’s books, including “The Tangerine Bear,” which was made into an animated TV special, as well as “Maggie and the Ferocious Beast,” “Marvin the Tap-Dancing Horse,” and “Jerolemon Street Players: Day One.” But they’re also the creators of The Cheap Show, which, until recently, had only been viewable through Plum TV…a network that precious few of us get, as it’s only available in resort cities like Vail, Martha’s Vineyard, and the like. Now, however, the show is available through Podcast…so if you can download it, you can watch it. And if you think this looks like it’ll be funny…

…then, definitely, run and download an episode right now. There’s a very good chance you’ll laugh.

I’m still not sure why it’s called The Cheap Show, though…
