FrankenTut? Tutenstein?

WTF!?!?! Apparently, on NBC Saturday Mornings, there's a blend of King Tut and Frankenstein coming back to life in modern days. It's so... wrong! Especially for someone who's actually studying Ancient Egypt. Well, I guess you've gotta bring crappy ideas to life when you run out of good ones for TV shows. I'm sure Professor Nethercut (my Ancient Egypt professor) will be thrilled, because he got all excited when we watched a clip from Sesame Street about a boy who had lived 4000 years and needed to make it to the heavens to become a "star" (as in, one of those twinkly things, not a hollywood hot-shot). He got very excited when Osiris called Big Bird "Ibis" and how the actual judgment of Egyptians took place (They weigh your heart against the feather of justice, to see if your good qualities outweigh the bad). So I'm sure if they throw in tidbits about Ancient Egypt, Professor Nethercut will go wild. Tutenstein... that sounds like a rancid German dessert. The things people come up with, really.
