Show review for 1/31/2012

Click here for a brief summary of the show

Highs: We really wanted to hate the "Interviews With The Saints" segment because its premise was so hokey, but top-notch execution and timing by Lino and the "Saints" (all of whom sounded a lot like Father Rob) kept us smiling the whole time. The premise of Father Rob auditioning for America's Got Talent has us drooling with anticipation. And what better way to end the show than with a little Super Bowl trash talk courtesy of the show's resident priest.

Lows: We're stretching, we know, but spending the last segment of the second hour talking about Newt Gingrich being sued for playing Eye Of The Tiger at rallies was nothing but useless filler. Put it in the news segment where it belongs.

Our take: All the stuff above plus Lino's charitable act of buying musical instruments for a couple of listeners made for a fine way to close out the month of January.

Grade: A-
