Eastbound & Down is Pure Genius

February 20th, 2009

HBO has hit another home run with their new comedy series Eastbound and Down, click here to see more info.  This show is awesome!  It’s John Rocker meets Ricky Bobby.  This raunchy hillbilly comedy follows a washed up baseball player who is coming to grips with losing his fame and money.   Kenny Powers is the fictitious character who brings his family and old friends back into his delusion world.  Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, the creators of FunnyorDie.com are the executive producers.  The show airs Sunday night at 10:30 EST after Flight of the Concords.

Reality TV is Hillbilly Hell

February 17th, 2009

I finally realized what the afterlife would be like if I were in hell: Reality TV shows all day long.  24/7 you would be exposed to the armpit of society and you wouldn’t be able to change channels.  Hell would consist of a huge big screen TV with only 2 channels, MTV and VH1. Having grown up on music video’s it’s a travesty that the 2 music channels no longer play music.  These channels once a staple in my regular TV schedule are now like watching a car crash. You know it’s terribly awful but you can’t help but watch.

I can’t watch anymore, its getting ridiculous!!

When will reality TV capitalize on death?  I feel like producers will develop a show similar to the movie Gladiator.  Poor, uneducated trash will fight for their lives in the Coliseum for the entertainment of Caesar.. errr America and high TV ratings.

I feel these reality show producers are shining on a bright light on cockroaches. You watch as they all run from the light hiding in the first dark place they can find.  These hillbillies and ho’s are looking for their 15 minutes of fame—hoping to make a career and capitalize on embarrassment and humiliation.  Ah the American dream!

A quick look at a few TV train wrecks:

Bromance: Seriously?!?!? I’ve never seen more dudes cry…this isn’t Queer Eye. Do you really need to be Brody Jenner’s bro??

Life of Ray J: Who?? That was my thought at first.  Come on, he’s Brandy’s brother and has a sex tape with Kim Kardashian.  Why wouldn’t you get your own show?

Rock of Love: Bret Michael’s wig is pretty awesome.  The chicks are weathered strippers who get bounced when they don’t spread their legs for this washed up 80’s front man.  Please end this show; I’m sick of watching Bret get paid to get laid.

Where have you gone Pop-up video, and Yo! MTV Raps?

Healthy Choice Café Steamers: It Doesn’t Taste Like a Steamer…And It’s Fresh

February 10th, 2009
Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers

Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers

“Bring Fresh Flavor Out and Steam Goodness In”

Healthy Choice has revolutionized the frozen food market by introducing the Café Steamers meal. This is a healthy and innovative new product that has been quietly filling your freezer shelves and customers bellies for some time.  I’ve been eating these creations for months, they are fantastic. The steamers don’t taste like shit. They actually taste like real food not that plastic, cardboard taste that comes with most frozen foods.  Steamers won’t leave you hungry and have a high nutritious value.

The Steamer is completely sealed and requires no ventilation.  You put the frozen bowl in the microwave for about 5 minutes.  The food cooks within a plastic strainer with is atop the corresponding sauce.  The food is steamed in the microwave and allows for both the food and the sauce to heat up without affecting the texture of both.  Therefore, you have the option of using the sauce atop your food and your food doesn’t end up soggy. You take it out and pour the food into the marinated sauce that accompanies the container.  Ready to serve and enjoy.  It’s very easy to make.

There are about 12 different flavors.  I can only speak for the 4 flavors I eat on a regular basis. Those flavors include:  Beef Merlot, Chicken Margherita, Grilled Chicken Marinara, and General Tso’s Spicy Chicken (my personal favorite).

I highly recommend eating a steamer because it’s better than someone taking a steamer in your mouth plus it’s filling and good for you!

Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory – Premier Episode

February 8th, 2009

First Thought:

Is this show even possible without Big Black?  We’ll see.  I did like the intro with him doing dohnuts with the cool 3-wheeled vehicle in the factory.

As It’s Progressing:

Who doesn’t love puppies?  Beefy is one helluva cute doggy – nice touch.  The warehouse is huge and has some interesting stuff in it – basketball hoops, offices, skate rails and ramps.  After that… foam pit, vertical tanning bed (lame, but he admits it), stilts & Timmy the Testy purchases.  His manager asks him to go over some stuff for 5 minutes, but Rob blows him off to skate with his boys and you can see the mngr mouth “Fuckin’ dick”.  Lamar Odom and a restaurant – who gives a shit?

The Ah-Ha Moment:

They get a blob in the warehouse which looks like a gigantic blown-up dildo.  The point is to jump and land on one end and launch a person on the other end into the air.  Sounds lame, but looks like a shit-load of fun.

Final Review:

I wasn’t completely disappointed.  There are some entertaining moments in there.  It ended on a good note with the whole group getting launched off the blob into the foam pit.  I’ll tune in next week, but it’ll have to get better to gain my loyalty.

Rating:

3 3/4 magic donkey hats

Peace
