"Syndicated Inc." is a song by musical artist "Weird Al" Yankovic. It is a parody of "Misery" by Soul Asylum. It appeared on his ninth studio album, "Bad Hair Day". The song is about a man and his family's devotion to syndicated television.

Criticism

Some of Yankovic's fans have stated that "Syndicated Inc." is the weakest song on "Bad Hair Day". Their justification ranges from that it is just another song about TV, to the fact that all the rhymes end in the long 'e' sound. Despite this, several Yankovic fans still cite it as one of their favorite parodies."Sydicated Inc." at [http://www.weirdalforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3541&hl=] ;retrieved on September 15 2007]

Notes

*"Syndicated Inc.", a Soul Asylum "parody", interestingly enough, appears on the same album as a Soul Asylum "style parody", "The Night Santa Went Crazy".
