Stoop to the Stoop My Darlin: It’s a 227 Reunion

By Michelle Collins

227. Along with Amen and Punky Brewster, perhaps the favorite television show from my childhood. The stoop stylings of Maaaary, Pearl, Rose, and, of course, Soooondra created the African-American family I always wished I was a part of. And this week, The Today Show finally did it: They reunited the cast of...

By Tom Ganjamie

Did you see the video for Ke$ha’s “Tik Tok” and think, “This video is just not nearly nerdy enough for my liking”? I know I did. Fear not, because the internet came through and provided us with the dose of Star Wars we crave in the music of our troubled pop stars. This video is...

Michael Emerson Stars In Lost Prequel, “1992 Prison Training Video”

By Dan Hopper

This amazing early-90s prison training video teaches aspiring wardens the best way to handle an unruly prisoner: Bring in creepy-ass Michael Emerson from Lost. He’ll not only calm the prisoner down, but he’ll also convince the prisoner he’s protecting his friends by murdering employees at competing prisons. In this example, he doesn’t succeed. Poor,...

Yes Dear Totally Predicted The Tiger Woods Scandal

By Dan Hopper

And to think, this whole time, you thought Yes Dear was a throwaway sitcom incapable of humor, let alone clairvoyant powers to foresee the sexual transgressions of our sports idols? How naive of you. Mike O’Malley saw that scandal coming as clearly as he saw Chris “The Eagle” Jackson miss that actuator on the...

Nirvana Figure Skater Begs The Question: Can Kurt Cobain Roll 360 Degrees Around In His Grave And Back To Normal?

By Dan Hopper

Between the Kurt Cobain rapping avatar in Guitar Hero and the following video of a grungefied Scott Williams doing a figure skating routine set to “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” I’m wondering if it’s possible for a deceased artist to roll over in their grave so forcefully, they spin completely around back to their original...

OK Go Just Won The Internet Again

By Tom Ganjamie

When military scientists invented the internet back in the 1950’s, this is what they had in mind. Behold, the video for OK Go’s “This Too Shall Pass”: I can’t tell if this video makes me feel sickeningly lazy or like an actually somewhat productive human being. This is the type of thing I would inadvertently...

TRAILER MIX: So This Is What Robert Pattinson Sounds Like…

By Michelle Collins

Blizzard Confession: Before last night, I had never really heard Robert Pattinson speak. He was always just this presence, this figure, that haunted my waking life. And yes, a single dream, that I’d rather not get into here. His face was stone, a Greek carving with a large, gaping mouth that...

Video of Ke$ha at Middle $chool Talent $how Prove$ We Were All Ke$ha’s at $ome Point

By Michelle Collins

Ah, middle school. Sometimes one wonders if middle school was created specifically to sequester pre-teens and post-adolescents during their ugliest time, an entire cement block dedicated to school the country’s most unsightly youngsters. It’s during this time that are “parts” start “budding,” our “glands” “secreting,” our “faces” going through some sort of...

VIDEO: Small Town Animals Try To Make It In The Big City

By Tom Ganjamie

It’s only Tuesday, and we have already been graced with two videos of animals who think they’re people. I wish every week started out like this. First, can a pigeon really juggle a career AND find love? This fall on FOX, one bird proves it takes more than wings to get to the top and...

The Amazing Race Debuts Best Detour Ever: Llama Clothes

By Michelle Collins

Shame on CBS. The best show currently on television (after Fantasia For Real & Celebrity Fit Club, obvs.” — Corpy Shill), The Amazing Race, began its new 16th season last Sunday, with Nary a voicemail, or text, or comical boxing glove in the face reminding us. As a result, we missed the...

The Ed Hardy Boyz Are Back… And They Brought Some Friends, Bro

By Tom Ganjamie

Are you suffering from a severe lack of new, non-Olympic entertainment the last two weeks? By any chance did that weird British brother-sister goth ice dance team’s routine to Linkin Park last night (yea, I watched. Whatever.) leave you nostalgic to catch up with an old nu-metal icon? Well Nick Kroll and Jon Daly...

VIDEO: Super Saver Lillian For CVS Has To Be A Tim And Eric Character, Right?

By Dan Hopper

Here’s Super Saver Lillian to explain the new CVS “Double Bucks” rewards! Two is better than one is what she always says!

VIDEO: OH NOOOOO — RUN You Stop-Motion Danish Bunnies!!!

By Dan Hopper

This Danish stop-motion animated short “Out Of A Forest” starts out adorable, then becomes waaaaay more tense than any animated bunny tea party video has the right to be, before ultimately resuming its place firmly in the realm of adorable again (adoraspoiler!) I may or may not have just yelled “Why aren’t you running??? RUNNN!!!”...

Vampire Weekend just premiered the video for their new single “Giving Up The Gun,” and it features some big name celebrities playing tennis (which I guess is a real life version of that game in Wii Sports) on the set of Michael Jackson’s “Scream” video. See Joe Jonas and Jake Gyllenhaal get schooled by...

VIDEO: The Full Tiger Woods Apology

By Dan Hopper

Here’s the Tiger Woods apology in its entirety. I assumed it was gonna be a long, deliberate, predictable prepared statement of attrition, so I was surprised by how many times he yelled “Back off, motherf***ers!” Thoughts? Personally, I believe he’s being sincere when he says he had a bunch of affairs.
