Giving my Tivo some well-needed rest

I bless the cosmos for Tivo every day. With a quick blip of the remote it allows me to circumvent the endless synapse-deadening waves of network commercials, allowing me to actually enjoy watching TV. How did I survive without it? Except every once in awhile a commercial comes out that actually deserves to be seen […]


Ok, this isn’t hilarious, and the voices don’t sound anything like actual Mad Men characters, but the mere idea that Sesame Street would be sophisticated and clever enough to do a Mad Men parody is well worth posting. I wonder how many moms today were asked, “Mommy, what’s a sycophant?” and just stared at their […]

Pete Campbell from Mad Men discusses the genius of Mitch Hedberg, the biology of monogamy, life with Jon Hamm and why he takes the bus everywhere in LA…

This is PART TWO of Lost In A Supermarket’s interview with Vincent Kartheiser of AMC’s Mad Men (click HERE to read PART ONE). Unlike PART ONE of the interview, which was pretty heavy on the Mad Men geekness, this one’s a much more personal look at Kartheiser himself. Hit the Jump to read him discuss […]

Pete Campbell from Mad Men talks about the absurdity of morality, the death of the American Dream, and being part of the Best Show on TV...

I didn’t say “much hyped” because hype requires that the product or vehicle receiving the accolades does not deserve them, which […]

That means 26 more bouts of Bender’s shiny metal ass for your joyous lives! What’s odd about the life cycle of the show is that it’s been off the air for […]

Bloated Egos, Self-Entitled Rich Kids Belittling Clerks. Fun.

Do we really need a Fred Segal Reality TV show? According to Bravo that’s affirmative. They have one in production right now. Reuters is reporting that this new Fred Segal series is 1 of 4 new shows in the worlds of “fashion, design, cuisine and real estate.” This being the fashion one, the show is […]


We’ve been kinda pooping on this since May, what with how craptacular Stormshadow leaks looked, but this trailer actually redeems it a bit. A bit. I’m still not holding my breath — I mean, Dennis Quaid as Hawk? — but still, I’ll probably be there opening weekend baked outta my noodles. Who knows, a couple […]


It’s no secret. I love Chris Peterson. This is the one where Chris goes to the Handsome Boy Modelling School (not the genius band, but the genius inspiration for the band) to become a model. Why in high hell has this show not gone on DVD yet? Can’t Comedy Central find some space in its […]
