...gets as white as humanly possible with "The Mullets," the name of which alone inspired the biggest laughs of anything so far this upfront. From two ex-"Simpsons" producers, it's about two brothers with a roofing business, huge poofy mullet haircuts and half a brain between them. Unfortunately, the clips themselves didn't incite the laughs the title did, but that won't keep me from checking it out come fall. You say you can't found a sitcom on a haircut alone?
