Does the Valley have cred now?

Weston Deboer — Wed, 21 Jun 2006 21:45:11 +0000

If you missed the last episode of entourage your missing the best show on TV. Even though it is on HBO, it should still count for being t he best show on going on. If you haven’t seen an episode of entourage you should check it out now. If you don’t have HBO, I know that you have a friend who does.

This weeks Entourage features the crew going to the Valley to see there opening movie. Drama complains about the heat and only goes to the valley November threw December. Vince and the crew have an Almost Famous moment when they get invited to a house party in the valley. And Vince says to the crowd these are the best moments of your life. Johnny ends the show by saying, the Valley is alright.

Boom, the Valley has instant cred. Even though they say they are going to Northridge and the movie theatre is in Encino. Thats still good enough for me, if Drama says that the valley is alright, then nobody can knock it anymore. For that i am going to go see Poseidon, Drama.

Comcastic – Karaoke on Demand

Weston Deboer — Tue, 20 Jun 2006 02:31:36 +0000

Is there that much of a demand for karaoke that comcast needs to make it an option to have it on demand? I do have to admit that the commercials are funny with Mr. T breaking down the wall of the guy singing in the shower. Mr. T should be knocking him out and saying, why do you need karaoke on demand anyways. Are people doing karaoke in there showers? How many times have you even been to someones house and they had a karaoke machine setup, that people were actually using it!

I know of a few friends, TWO, who have a karaoke machine in there house and both of them are getting really dusty. I remember when they got a karaoke machine, the whole house was excited about it. But no one got the balls enough to use it, so it never got used.

I don’t understand karaoke anyways, I have never seen anyone who just had to do karaoke right then and there. Do people just like to listen to music without words? So they can just input there own words?

Dane Cook Sucks

Weston Deboer — Mon, 12 Jun 2006 15:31:17 +0000

I was looking forward to Dane Cook’s new show “Tourgasm”. I was excited enough that i would watch entourage first and then watch the dane cook show. As i would be laughing so much i couldn’t watch anything else. But after watching the Dane Cook show, my girlfriend asked if we wanted to watch entourage again.

The show basically follows four comedians as they do the tourgasm road trip. Going to some off 20 shows in 30 days across america. I don’t know the exact specifics of this show, but who cares. So it just follows comedians around as they try there hardest to be funny around each other. I guess i have a problem in the sense that i don’t even like comedy all that much, or comedians. Having been around comedians a few times, i know that they are always “on” and its terrible. And watching this show, just reminds me of how much i hate comedians.

Now i look back on it all, and i can say that the commercials for the show are not funny either. Just with the Dan Cook name attached to it, i just assumed that it would be all hilarity.

The show is for people who don’t know who Dane Cook is, I guess there is a lot of people out there who don’t know who he is. If you are a Dan Cook fan, i wouldn’t watch the show, it is terrible.

I am not going to put a picture up or link to anything, I have so much hate.

Streaming TV Shows Online

Weston Deboer — Mon, 15 May 2006 23:56:28 +0000

Why is Abc.com the first channel to sream there tv shows online? I would have thought that NBC would be the first network to do this. But aparantly they are going to be the last, now that Myspace.com will be showing Two episodes of “24″ on there website, sponsored by burger king.

I have taken Lost off of my Girlfriends DVR, because i can watch lost online with only three commercials that i don’t mind. Its the greatest thing since sliced bread, watching TV online for free. When will the other networks jump on this bandwagon and do it. I am only saying this because i just saw the trailer for the next dog episode, and i want to watch it online!

Chloe O’Brian is Funny

Weston Deboer — Tue, 09 May 2006 00:00:00 +0000

I went to go see Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chloe O’Brian as most of you know her by). She plays a computer nerd on the show 24 with Kiefer Sutherland (Jack Bauer). I just wanted to get that all out of the way.

Mary Lynn Rajskub did a comedy show at Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre. She did a bunch of jokes about 24 and Jack Bauer. She was definitelly trying new material out and testing the waters. She was a very funny comedian and for five dollars, it wasn’t to expensive. I have never been to the UCB theatre and i liked that theatre. This is the worst post ever, and you know what i don’t care. Please check out the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre and if Mary Lynn Rajskub is ever in your town, you should check her out also. I mean cmon she did a jack bauer joke, thats funny already.

TV Turnoff Week : 2006

Weston Deboer — Tue, 25 Apr 2006 06:57:12 +0000

I am taking part of TV Turn of week. Starting yesterday i will not watch any television. This means anything Tivo’d and i am going to take it a step further and say no downloaded shows either. I will just watch those shows next monday. I have already noticed a difference of not turning the tv on. During dinner me and my girlfriend usually put on a movie or just put on the tv. I didn’t take it to the extreme last night, i cheated and i watched some Tivo’d Elizabeth I. But not anymore, the TV will be off. I usually put on the tv when i go to bed, but last night i did not. I forgot and i turned on the tv this morning for a second, because it is just ritual. But i quickly turned it off. Support TV Turn off week, and see how much TV is in your life. Turn off that TV! For more information about TV Turn Off Week, please check out Adbusters.org : TV Turn Off Week and The Tv Turn Off Organization
. Did Jack Bauer take out the President, Who did Tony Soprano k, Did all of the Lost characters die? I won’t know until May 1st, And either should you, Turn off that TV!

“Blocked” Hanes Commercial

Weston Deboer — Fri, 21 Apr 2006 04:18:27 +0000

I was watching a movie on abc family, and the funniest commercial came on. It was a Hanes commercial. Hanes commercials usually don’t make me laugh, but this one was just to funny. It is a commercial with Kevin Bacon and Michael Jordan, Where Kevin tries to make a shot, and Jordon blocks every shot that Kevin makes. I found it online on there website at http://www.hanes.com/HanesCommerce/en-US/Explore.htm. And then you have to scroll to the right some and you can watch this commercial. I am glad that Hanes puts there commercials online, i wish that more companies would do this.

I Hate 24

Weston Deboer — Fri, 24 Mar 2006 08:00:01 +0000

I love two shows currently on T.V. right now. These two shows are Lost and 24. The reason why i hate these shows is pretty obvious, i am addicted to them!

I didn’t start watching Lost until it was done with the first season and i could rent the DVD. I did this because i knew that if i started watching it during the season i would get mad at it, and throw something ta my T.V. So i didn’t, i just wanted for the dvd.

It is hard now, i cannot wait for the dvd, i have to watch every new show. I have to know whats going on every week. Not every week per say, but i have to know whats going on.

I don’t know how i got into this mode and it is killing me. I have never been like this for a T.V. show. I have always let weeks past before i just catched a show on the T.V. The producers/directors of both of these shows have tapped into my brain and figured out a way. They have figured out a way to get me addicted to these shows like cigarettes.

This has started me to think that the T.V. shows are working with cigarette companies, since they know what is addicting. Maybe soon, one day, T.V. shows like Lost and 24 will be illegal to watch indoors. Or maybe one day it will be illegal everywhere like in it is in certain cities now.

But until then i will keep watching 24 and Lost. Are they addicting? Or are those T.V. shows just very good.

Music Video Television is Getting Worse

Weston Deboer — Mon, 31 Oct 2005 16:05:59 +0000

I couldn't sleep today, so i turned on the television and to my surprise MTV was playing music videos. Im not going to rant about how MTV doesn't play music videos anymore. Because music videos don't make money anymore. And i understand this. But i guess at 6 o clock in the morning thats when there viewer-ship must be its lowest. Only because thats when they play music videos and not Laguna Beach.

The Miami Herald has reported that MTV's viewer-ship has been declining. But they only report that its because of other reasons like the olympics and other freak occurrences.

At six o clock in the morning though, MTV's demographic isn't the 12-24 year olds, but probably the 19 years and older. There usual demographic is at school and they can show music videos. Even though they only play two music videos and then there usual amount of commercials. Which was extremely annoying, but again i go back to, there viewer-ship in the morning is probably very low. So they can do almost whatever they want at this time.

I did see the new kelly clarkson and a lot of bands i have never heard of. Green Days "Wake Me Up When September Ends" Video was the best video i have seen. The worst video was Kanye West's "Gold Digger." Update: While i was dotting the i's to this, Frankie J's, "More Than Words" came on. Winner, worst video.

Who watches music videos on MTV anyways, go look at these great sources for music videos: Mvspot.com, Videohtmlcodes.com, Musicvideocodes.info.

Here is a tutorial on how to download music videos from yahoo to your computer for later viewing: Uneasysilence.com.
