Conan – The Equinox Equinox

Episode Seven On the show this evening, comedian and actor Russel Brand, author Susan Casey and musical guest The 88. Come comes out tonight in a really sharp gray suit, that my favorite suit color to wear as well. Again audience interaction via hugs, he will have to do this forever!

Your Highness – Trailer – Natalie Portman

Ok, we have an quite NSFW Red-band trailer of Your Highness courtesy of IGN. So with fair warning of really strong language and thongs, proceed knowing it’s a medieval comedy featuring James Franco, Danny McBride, Zooey Deschanel and the thong belonging to Natalie Portman. So mysognistic as it is I must again point out Natalie Portman in a thong. Good lord this woman is beautiful, I’ve been in love with her forever. Of course the fact … Continue reading

Dexter Season 5 Episode 8 Recap – Take It!

Deb is bothered that she doesn’t feel remorse for killing one of the suspects.  She feels nothing.  Yasmine (the informant’s mother) comes … Continue reading

The Walking Dead Episode 3 Recap

Tell it to the Frogs First I wanted to briefly talk about Episode 2 “Guts”. I was busy and it got too late to do a recap. I noticed a lot people being down on the show for “pacing” and such after the second episode. I’m not sure what people are expecting from the series, particularly viewers who aren’t familiar with the comic books or collected graphic novels. This isn’t going to be all zombie … Continue reading

No Conan on Friday – Episode 5 Recap Monday

If you were one of the people already looking for a recap of tonight’s Conan episode andwere unable to find… well, that’s because there is no episode to night. Apparently Conan has adopted the same strategy that they use for Lopez which is Monday through Thursday no Fridays. I’m not sure if this is a good or bad thing yet. Fridays in people’s minds are reserved for going out and doing things, if that is … Continue reading

Conan on TBS Episode 4 Recap

The Mummenschantz Conundrum Previous Conan on TBS Episode Recaps are in the related posts near the Bottom Before we get into the episode, a little bit about ratings. The ratings have dropped from their 1st show and some people are acting like this is surprising. Conan on TBS beat two network backed shows from a basic cable station. This is a big deal. I suspect they will dip a little bit for the remainder of … Continue reading

Jane Jensen presents Gray Matter

I read some news today that the game Gray Matter had received it’s release.  A little further research shows that Gray Matter has been released in Germany and as a digital download release.  The game is in native German but has an English option.  Apparently the American release is set for February of next year in native English.  What difference there is in the English voicing of the German and U.S. releases remains unclear.  I … Continue reading
