Song of the Afternoon

It's Thursday afternoon and you know what that means...music from a couple of Swedish chicks I've never heard of! This song was on NPR today and liked enough to share it with all 14 of you.

Junk, Junk and More Glorious Junk

Going to the sports collector's convention has just been added to my bucket list. Just think of all the crap I could buy and store in a closet or basement.

Better Take A Look!

I know it is 22 minutes long, but if you get a chance watch a few minutes here and there. It’s a great pilot episode that never got picked up. Why am I showing this pilot of Lookwell? It was one of Conan O’Brien’s first writing gigs.

I Got Fired Because Kelsey Grammer Scammed Me



I decided to let the Jack Donaghy clip of the week go to Dr. Frasier Crane himself, Kelsey Grammer. Even though Alec Baldwin again nailed it last night in 30 Rock and his quest of ‘Reaganing.' But I think we can all agree that Grammer was a great guest actor last night. Yeah, Frajer!

Conan’s First Guests

Photobucket
I wrote this post for 100%, and when I went to publish I doubled checked the website to make sure no one did the same thing, and sure enough someone had just posted what I just finished writing about. So, since I already had it written, I’m going to post it here:

The premiere of Conan O’Brien’s new show Conan on TBS is still a few weeks away, but we now know who will be visiting the funnyman during his first week. Some old favorites and friends of Conan will stop by all starting with the teamcoco poll winner Seth Rogen and musical guest Jack White (who he collaborated with on Third Man Records). Here’s the full run down:

Monday, Nov. 8 – Seth Rogen and musical guest Jack White
Tuesday, Nov. 9 – Tom Hanks, Jack McBrayer and musical guest Soundgarden
Wednesday, Nov. 10 – Jon Hamm, Charyne Yi and musical guest Fistful of Mercy
Thursday, Nov. 11 – Michael Cera, Julie Bowen and comedian Jon Dore

A pretty solid lineup for the first week on TBS. Hanks, who originated the ‘Coco’ nickname, is a must for Conan. He appeared on Conan’s first week on the Tonight Show and appeared on his final telecast in January. Other notable frequent Conan guests are Jack McBrayer (30 Rock) who actually worked on Late Night back and can be seen in many skits. I’m looking forward to the first week, and if you are wondering who is the guest on Friday, nobody! Remember Conan will run Monday thru Thursday at 11/10c.

The Dungeon (-1), Rooftops (-1)

Yes, It's true. I've finally completed the Dungeon and Rooftops on par! The two courses that made me swear at my phone and make my wife wonder why she married me. To celebrate, I give you a really slow song by someone I completely forgot about.

My Kind of Office

Here's a really cool video that I saw on foxsports.com, but who's operating the camera? Way too close, dude. Zoom out! Look around.

Monday Music

Here are a couple songs I've had stuck in my head this morning.

Sorry, Frank, These Ads Are Better

Photobucket

I’m loving these Conan ads. I know it helps I’m a fan of him, but those Jay Leno ads for him moving to ten o’clock and then back to the Tonight Show were not funny, poorly executed, and not enough variety. TBS is blasting us with tons of different ads and a well executed social media campaign that I haven’t seen since 42 Entertainment brilliantly marketed The Dark Knight and with rare circumstances. I’m stoked for his show. I hope they don’t try and change the landscape with no desk or whatever. Plus, once Conan starts Nov. 8, four days later Kansas Basketball starts!

New Music To Chew On

Here is some new music to help you get through this slow Monday, unless you're one of those jags that has today off to celebrate Columbus Day.

Congrats to Us, Even More Props to These Guys...


CITY OF SCARS
Uploaded by Batinthesun. - Classic TV and last night's shows, online.

There is a very impressive fan-made Batman movie floating around youtube this week. Apparently shot on a budget for $27,000 and 21 days to create. It is definitely worth the 30-minutes. Very impressive to see the camera skill, editing, dialogue and array of camera setups. Clearly impressive enough to keep me up very late. Enjoy this great Batman movie! Oh, and congrats to Mitch and I to getting to 100 posts. Normally, we stop doing stuff pretty soon after we start.

100th Post! (Updated)

I just noticed on the old dashboard that this is the 100th post! I should save it for Chet to write something special but who knows when he's going to post again? With the Chiefs being 3-0 he's probably busy thrusting a field goal post somewhere. Anyway, since we haven't posted since Monday here are some more TV thoughts, a quick game of Where's Chet?, and a new Conan promo.

TV Thoughts
I have ended my relationship with The League and Glee. Both season passes have been deleted from the DVR. The League is trying way too hard to be funny and Glee is boring. I have no plans to replace them with anything.

Where's Chet?
1. Getting signatures so he can run for mayor of Chicago
2. Eating a meatball sub at the Subway across the street from his place
3. Riding around on an ATV running over Colts mascots
4. The meatball sub didn't fill him up so he's having a snack. Maybe a muffin and a Coke?

Missing You



"I Don't Like Your Tactics"

Here is a song by the Local Natives who I saw Saturday night at the Metro. The show was pretty good but it won't make my list of favorite shows because I had to stand behind the world's biggest douche bag. He bitched at us before the show started because we were "bumping him" and he thought we were trying to take his spot, "I've been here for two hours, I don't like your tactics!". I'm not sure why he cared so much about his spot, once the show started he began slow dancing and making out with his date preventing him from seeing any of the show. Job well done moron. You could have done that at home and saved 40 bucks.
