    I was dissapointed by the series premier of the Onion SportsDome. I got a good chuckle out of the MLS segment, but other than that nothing was particularly funny.

    This rapid-fire, slickly produced half-hour is witty enough to serve as a logical lead-in to "The Daily Show" and its skewering of cable news.

    This gleefully rapidfire show takes aim at the worst tropes of sports broadcasting.
