I already assumed this furry breed of cat was funny- if you've ever seen Alexandre from the Compare the Market insurance spot, you'll know http://http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0mXUC0cUPg ("SIMPLES!").
They look so cute and nibley (don't ask, not sure this is even a word?) with impressively good posture, but oh no. This brigade are like a pack of sheep followers led by two brawlers combining to make an almighty fierce reigning duo in a never ending territorial battle with competing packs!
Over on Animal Planet, Bill Nighy calmly informed that 'Lola', the former Mama B meerkat of the Zappa group had just been banished from the group and questioned whether she could survive in the wilds on her own - cue nighttime shot of sad and injured Lola hiding under a rock; pondering her fate. So who turfed her ass out? Her SISTER! On the beat-down chat show rickter scale, this was Ricky Lake.
Now hooked, I sat rooted hoping Lola was going to mount a come-back. Isn't Animal Planet in the Disney family? Surely there must be a happy ending! Maybe she'd wait until traitorous sister, 'Punk', left to get her manicure done and she'd mount her own coup? Not so in the survival of the wilds.
Here things in 'The Manor' get all Jeremy Kyle good- Punk makes a move on Lola's man, chief stud Frank, and he gave it up. SHUT. UP! This creeped me out a little, because Frank's supposed to be older than Punk and the Lolita scenario comes to mind. Truthfully, Punk is more like Natalie Portman's Anne character in The Other Boleyn Girl, aggressively pursuing fat old Henry VIII.
But Frank is no lean Eric Bana with thighs of steel, and no sooner has he gotten used to the attentive tongue of Punk (the tramp!), in steps his prodigal brother, Houdini. Ohh... Houdini is a young buck, a maverick meerkat after sassy Punk's own heart, and when the two bro's tussle for alpha supremacy of the pack, there could only be one winner...Punk <3 Houdini
I haven't seen a betrayal this big and a tussle this good since the old days of Jerry Springer. Have to say, it was mighty satisfying.
Something seems wrong about Lola losing her power, and forced to watch the younger Punk munch on a milipede at dinner, the very symbol of supremacy. *Crushed*
I <3 Lola
