Spaghetti Cat Is The New Rick Roll

Continuing our meta tradition of bringing you the best of The Soup each Monday morning, it would be a shame if anyone missed what will hopefully become some sort of talk show inside joke (but probably not). McHale and team were paying attention last week when the Morning Show With Mike And Julia, during a show about drunk driving, mistakenly cut to, and lingered on, a picture of a cat eating spaghetti:

So far there are no answers as to why that picture was all cued up and ready to go, but let's just all insert this into our videos and TV shows from now on:

"It was, for lack of a better word: art."

All shows should be required to do a spaghetti cat at least once.

Yeah I almost died of laughter while watching the soup when they showed that morning show where the woman was talking about drinking or something and then pops a picture of a cat eating speghetti!

love it

I don't have cable anymore and I was sad for a while when I realized I was going to miss The Soup, but luckily you guys make sure I'm updated on my favorite person on TV. I could never get bored of Joel McHale.
