Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job!
Imagine if you will, a Bizarro universe where instead of a present-day existence pioneered by M.I.T. graduates, Silicon Valley engineers and aspiring movie directors working for MTV: your futures were created by legally defined retards. Or those corporate bosses you couldn’t stand! That is what lays the foundation for Tim and Eric Awesome Show. ... [Read more of this review]
In Treatment: HBO
Now that the Golden Globe Noms are out and the Emmys have passed us by, even though Lenny (and a whole host of other people) think that the Golden Globes are bunk, I can’t help but want to bring attention to shows that deserve their accolades. Lucky for you, I am a “Mystic” and can sense things of quality. As I put a finger to my temple... [Read more of this review]
Are You > or < The Venture Bros.
This is not a show I immediately loved, revered or even liked. It was more like a curiosity, a pig fetus in a jar of embalming fluid. Something I wished to understand and appreciate. If the Church of the SubGenius had produced a television show, I am certain it would resemble The Venture Bros. Huh? You lost me. Exactly. When you have graduated from... [Read more of this review]

Holiday Shopping puts a little Linda Blair in the Hollister
So the economy is down, and yet it seems that at this strange time of year when people pretend like they sincerely want to listen to Harry Connick Jr. and drop significant dough on pet accessories, the malls are flooded to the point of asphyxiation. You pretend like it is all in jest until you realize that the same soundtrack has been played over every... [Read more of this review]
Blue Haired Two Dollar Drama
How embarrassing!…for you. I was witness to a scene this week that got under my skin so badly I just can’t keep it in. I was enjoying what is ALWAYS a tasty lunch and pleasant service experience at Good Microbrewery in Silverlake with a friend when a woman two tables away began to shout at the owner and then to the rest of the dinning...

The Art of the Christmas Party
As I am sure most are aware, Christmas season (it’s not just one day, you know) is among us, which means so are Christmas parties. The beautiful thing about this time is that people are in giving moods, even with the current state of our economy, and really open their hearts. More importantly, they pick up the tab by way of an open bar. Truly,... [Read more of this review]

Mike Shanahan Dropped like a Saigon Whore
As though there was not enough drama in the NFL this season, we have even juicier news than Plaxico Burress shooting himself in the foot, Tom Brady being out for the season, the Dallas Cowboys not making the playoffs and Brett Favre being “forced” out of Green Bay. Mike Shanahan with his Team Long-time Denver Broncos head coach and most... [Read more of this review]
UFC 92: The Ultimate 2008
UFC 92: The Ultimate 2008 UFC 92 is one of the biggest cards I’ve seen in recent memory, if not the biggest. The three fights I will go over could each easily anchor any card as the main event, and there were no disappointments, but plenty of upsets. This was the sort of event that really confuses me when I hear people are still fans of boxing,... [Read more of this review]
Unstoppable Boston Celtics visit Los Angeles Lakers
This will be the first of two games between the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers, for a repeat of their showdown in last seasons finals, where the Celtics mopped the floor the with the Lakers.
