Finally, here’s a picture of the Cobra Commander action figure I bought from the new GI JOE movie. The movie was amazing: crazy action, ridiculous storylines and plot twists, and nonstop cheese. Pretty much everything I incorporated into playing with my GI JOEs when I was 7. Or 15. It was one age or the other. Maybe it’s 23 since I just bought this toy.
Judging by the comments of three people on Facebook, supposedly I was on Comedy Central this past Sunday July 5th around 12:45pm! I didn’t see it, so I hope it’s true. I’ll probably never really know, but the idea of it gives me hope-boners.
I went to Chatanooga this past weekend for the 4th and had a blast with my brothers. We got completely and expensively shit-faced at a great restaurant and saw a very low-key fireworks show.
And when I got back, this hilarious little video that I helped make was edited and ready for the internet. Give some love to the Multi-Purpose Kitchen Tool:
Scrubs Finale was really good. They said it’s “JD’s Finale” but I hope the whole series is over, and they don’t try and bring back some washed up version of the show for another season. I wouldn’t mind a spin-off called like “Scrubs: Interns” or something to keep that kind of comedy going in a hospital setting, but the ending on this last season was so good, it would make an excellent end to the series.
How I Met Your Mother is one of the funniest shows on TV. The cast is amazing and the jokes and story lines are so well written. There’s that intertwining, hint-of-Seinfeld thing going on inmost episodes, too, which is always impressive.
Harper’s Island is one of the lamest new shows on right now, but I can’t stop watching it. Someone, sometimes more than someone, gets killed every episode, usually in a brutal way, which makes it watchable in my book. The acting and characters are very lame, so watching them all die is the best part. Check this out if you’re looking for a non-funny version of CLUE on an island with no talent.
The Mentalist is the best new show this year, and even though it’s the same scenario every episode, it hooks me because the main character is such a slickster. The show is about an Australian actor with an American accent constantly outsmarting people, but for some reason I feel dumber after every viewing. I think it’s the idea of something so simple trapping me on the couch for an hour every week that makes me feel like less of a sleuth and more of a lazy jackass. But the show is good!
I’ll stop here with the newest season of RENO 911! which is one of my favorite shows of all time. They lost three of their best characters for some unknown reason this season, and it started off with a bad episode and no hope, but it got so much better. Every episode since the first has been perfect. Great characters and scenes all around. Junior is my new favorite character. Watch the episode where they try and disgust the pope’s clergy so he won’t make a visit to Reno so they don’t have to do extra crowd control and work. It’s great.
Tonight is the first show of a new monthly show I’m running at a pizza joint called Barraco’s in Orland Park, IL. Here’s the flyer for the show. It’s gonna be sweet, come check it out if you can!
