Happy Slapsgiving!
Hey TV fans!
I'm gonna try and pick up some of the slack around here. With winter setting in I usually look forward to a great season of new shows. This year I was getting really prepared. I am currently up to speed with (in weekly order), How I Met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory, Chuck, Heroes, The Hills, Beauty & The Geek, Kid Nation, The Office, 30 Rock, My Name Is Earl, Scrubs, Friday Night Lights, and Weeds.
And now, all that hard work is going to waste. In two weeks, when the new episodes run out, what will become of me? I might have to finally relent and watch the My So Called Life dvds so that I will finally understand how misunderstood woman are.
But lets not look to the future with pessemism. Lets dwell in the past!
Last night's How I Met Your Mother (hereinafter referred to as "himym"), was brillz as always. I woke up this morning thinking about how I could possibly get myself a copy of the song featured in the episode. And this isn't some new song from some new band you can download on itunes. (Can I write about the episode or will it ruin the suprise for anyone who hasn't seen it? I'm going to write about it, so be warned), Marshal sang a song and played piano! And it was great. In fact, the whole episode was filled with new catch-phrases, games, and the kind of insight into life in November 2007 that makes the show so eerie. Sometimes, its as if the scripts really were written by an older Bob Saget, living in the future and writing about his past. But I digress.
So I woke up wanting to hear this song again, and not wanting to leave work in the middle of the day for some quality tivo time. And then I remembered an episode 2 or 3 weeks ago where Marshal called up Barney to introduce him to the slapcountdown.com clock... the clock that has been sitting on the internet, doing its job, counting. The clock was actually there, on the real life internet, not just on the show internet. Three weeks later and the countdown was done. Who knew this show was interactive? When I went back to the site today, there, in it's place, in all it's musical glory, is a brand new music video for Marshal's very own "You Just Got Slapped". I can't decide if I like the version from the show or the music video more, but either way a classic has been unleashed.
I'm not certain if himym is as popular as it should be. I have never seen an episode that I didn't absoltely love.
The video for the song and other priceless himym gems can be found at youtube.com/howimetyourmother.

Dexter murders my morning commute
So, one of the downfalls of working for MTV is that you have to trek into the over-crowded Times Square every morning to get to work. Today, however, I was surprised to stumble upon a fountain of blood. Turns out the [amazingly awesome] Showtime series Dexter is setting up these fountains in major cities all across the U.S. this week to promote the new season. If they didn't make a big enough spectacle with that, people wearing blood-spattered lab coats were handing out free DVDs of the first two episodes and little bottles of branded hand sanitizer.
At first I thought, Are they really allowed to put all this blood in the middle of family-friendly Times Square? and then quickly followed up with, Whatever... it's f***ing cool.
The second season of Dexter premieres Sunday, September 30th.
Danner, Fiennes join new FX drama
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Ryan Murphy, creator of the ever-so-wonderful Nip/Tuck, has gotten powerhouses Blythe Danner (pictured left), Joseph Fiennes (below) and Robert Wagner to join the cast of his new FX drama about a transexual.
The currently-untitled show--formerly called 4 oz.--revolves around family man Bob (Fiennes) who decides to make the transition to female. Danner and Wagner will be playing Bob's parents, Bunny and Scotch. The pilot is expected to go into production at the end of October, with Murphy himself at the helm.All I have to say is that if this show is as cool and crazy as Nip/Tuck, I will definitely be tuning in.

Chuck It
I got a chance to watch NBC's new spy "dramedy" show Chuck last night. Well, I wish I could I say I watched the whole thing, but I could only stand it for about 20 minutes. If you aren't aware of the premise, the story follows Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi, pictured middle), a geeky yet oddly attractive guy who unwittingly receives an e-mail from his ex-roommate-turned-CIA-operative that contains loads of secret government information. Naturally, a dozen U.S. agencies want the information retrieved, so they send out Major John Casey and Agent Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski, pictured left) to do the job.What really bugged me about this show was how long it took for an actual story to develop. I understand with pilots a lot of setting up is necessary to start the series, but this took way too long. I was waiting for a plot for 20 minutes and never got one. Also, NBC has really been pushing for this as a "dramedy", but the "comedy" part of that never really surfaces. The stereotype of the geek that is socially awkard yet is somewhat-attractive has been done so many times that it begs for redevelopment. Unfortunately, Levi delivers more of the same, although I do feel like he was given little to work with. I would love to see him in something else as I do find him to have some sort of strange appeal. My friends at work tell me that he is-- in fact-- a new hot commodity in Hollywood. But until he finds a better role, I recommend skipping out on Chuck.

Sneak Peek: Cavemen
This Fall, ABC rolls out a new half hour sitcom based on a television commercial. From the start, this show is going to have to have to work harder than most to create viewers and if we hadn't seen a preview, we certainly would have passed Cavemen without a second thought.But surprisingly, a program created from an insurance advertisement has turned from horrible idea into brilliant television. Cavemen creator Joe Lawson, the same man behind the commercials, was signed to ABC to write the pilot in March of 07' after the runaway success of the adverts. The original cavemen were at first meant to star, but instead the show now features Bill English as main caveman Joel, comedian Nick Kroll as caveman activist friend Nick and seasoned actor Dash Mihok as the goofy brother Andy.
The show follows the exploits of the three twenty-something cavemen as they deal with relationships, in-laws and at the heart of it all, racial stereotyping. The pilot takes place at the country club of Nick's fiance, where a western themed bbq is being held. Joel, Nick and Andy are stopped at the door when they are not on the list and from there, hilarity ensues as all three characters are roped into fulfilling the racial stereotypes equated with cavemen, such as clubbing people and wild sex. The writing is clever and the characters immediately likable from the beginning. The stand-out performance comes from Nick Kroll as the outspoken friend as he sweet talks the older gentlemen at the club, including Joel's future father in-law and in the opening scene, dominates the dialog as he points out how the caveman weather guy dresses up and dances for the camera.
Overall, Cavemen is an intelligent social commentary about the persistence of racial issues in America. It tackles racism with grace, brilliance and remarkable humor. Cavemen premieres Tuesday, October 2nd, 8pm.

Jon Stewart + Oscars = Awesomeness
I realize I am about 6 months early on this one, but according to early reports, Jon Stewart will be hosting the 2008 Academy Awards, which will take place on February 24. I gotta say, first of all, I am tad surprised about this one since Ellen Degeneres did such a phenomenal job this past year, but I am also pretty stoked, because I have such a crush on this little man and I'm glad to see that he will be back to host. In a tux. Lookin' smooth. Awwww yeah.
Why should I care what Perez Sez?
I don't find Perez Hilton's website particularly interesting or brilliant, but I can't help but be amused by the fact that on his VH1 special "What Perez Sez about the VMAs", he asked Pharrell, "Who has the bigger dick, Kanye or 50?" Now THAT, my friends, is some serious celebrity journalism.
He also has great convos with Simon Cowell, Pete Wentz, Mandy Moore, Hilary Duff, Michael Buble, Eve, M.I.A., Mika, and Amy Winehouse. Plus, a reasonable amount of the show is dedicated to shamelessly mocking Avril Lavigne.
Overall, his show is far superior to his website. He still annoys me a tad, but I'd watch his celebrity interviews again. He beats the shit out of Mary Hart.

I loves me some Cash Cab!
Can we all agree that Cash Cab is the best trivia show on TV? Okay, maybe I am a tad biased since I live in New York City, and I have now officially made it my goal to be a passenger in the Cash Cab... but still, this show kicks so much ass.
If you haven't seen it, check out your local listings. It's usually on for an hour in the late afternoon/early evening on the Discovery Channel.
You'll thank me later.
Simpsons season 1... Brilliant or unwatchable?
I'll be the first to admit that I am a shamelessly geeky fan of the Simpsons. I can tell you the last names of Moe, Apu, or Krusty the Klown's Rabbi father. And thanks to the advent of DVR, I usually have no less than a dozen episodes on my list of saved shows. I remember watching the show when it first came out, and I haven't grown tired of it yet.I was a tad apprehensive, however, when I learned last week that my local Fox affiliate would begin airing the series in it's entirety; one episode per day starting with the very first... Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire. (You know, the one where they acquire Santa's Little Helper.)
You see, since I was about Lisa's age when The Simpsons began airing in 1989, I was a tad too young to really appreciate it as anything more than a silly prime time cartoon. (Although, admittedly, I did think Bart was super cool, and I did go so far as to choreograph my own dance with my neighborhood friends to the song "Do the Bartman" off the Simpson's first album. I did, however, not go so far as to own a t-shirt that said "Don't Have A Cow Man." I had some class as a child.)
It wasn't until my teenage years, and what I consider to be the glory days of the Simpsons, that I really started to appreciate the show for how amazingly brilliant it is. (Or at least how brilliant it had become.)
Looking back now on the episodes of season 1, I see a completely different show from what we have come to know and love, and certainly very different in terms of humor and aesthetics as what recently appeared on the big screen. The voices just aren't quite right, the animation is sloppier, and it's majorly lacking in the scathing social commentary it has become so famous for.
That being said, it's almost worth watching just as a history lesson. It's not that great, but it's interesting to see the beginning of the great empire. Plus, in only a few weeks, they will be showing the Monorail episode. And I'm sure I'll appreciate it even more than ever before.

I Love NY 2 Cast Picture!
My guilty pleasure has finally returned. Hallelujah! I'm pulling for the little guy.
I Love New York 2 debuts this fall (as does Flavor Of Love 3). I'll be coyly watching.

Tyra Banks = most annoying tv host ever?
I knew it was a bad idea from the beginning, but after watching todays season premiere of Oprah, I thought to myself, "hey, maybe I should check out the Tyra Banks show! I mean, how bad can it possibly be?"Well, it's bad. Real bad.
Tyra is consistently guilty of the following offenses...
- gratuitous high fiving
- raising the roof
- overuse of the term "bling" (although, if you ask me, any use of that word is just too much)
- thinking that she is the greatest person on the planet
-telling everybody she comes in contact with that she is the greatest person on the planet
Tyra has moved her show from LA to New York, and spent the first 10 minutes of this season premiere episode showing us her "move" across the country. I can't really go in to how retarded this was, but I feel slightly dumber after having watched it.
Next was an interview with Rhianna. And by "interview" I mean 10 minutes of Tyra talking about how Mary J Blige told her once that she looks like Rhianna's older sister. Well, that is until Rhianna changed her hair to look less like Tyra/a drag queen. Good move Rhianna. The only real questions she asked her were whether or not she had ever dated Jay-Z and if Beyonce was responsible for her broken toe. The answer to both questions was no. Snoozefest.
I kind of lost interest in the show after this, and you can all rest assured that I will not be watching any further episodes of the Tyra Banks show. Not this season, not ever!
Mama O's season premiere
Another year, another season of Oprah. This years season premiere is happening in our fair city of New York, and is featuring one Oprah-tastic guest (David Letterman) and one ex-wife of Michael Jackson (Lisa Marie Presley). The first 40 minutes of the show had me glued to the tv (mainly out of lack of a better way to spend my afternoon) for the Letterman interview. Watching the old man talk about his 4 year old son just warms my heart. I'm not sure where this whole alleged Letterman/Winfrey feud came from, where it started or why (perhaps during the who Oprah-Uma debacle at the Oscars a few years back), but I am glad to see the two TV personalities have kissed and made up.Lisa Marie Presley, on the other hand... wtf? I still don't quite get why she is interesting in any way whatsoever. Yes, we get it, your dad was the king, blah blah blah, and now you're trying to grasp onto whatever remnants of a music career you had by singing a "duet" with your dead father (a very mediocre version of the song "In the Ghetto"), but really, are you worthy of the season premiere of Oprah? Me thinks not. You lost all credibility when you made out with MJ at the VMA's. And then married Nicolas Cage. *cringe*
Tim Gunn's Guide to Style: What Not to Watch
"Tim Gunn, Tim Gunn, when he calls your name you're done!"
I can't help but sing, Project Runway's Season Two contestant, Santino's song whenever the lovable Tim Gunn walks across the screen. I want him to be my stylish gay uncle grandma will never quite understand, I want him over for Thanksgiving and have him decorate the center piece, I adore him. But Uncle Tim, this is beneath you...
Tim Gunn's Guide to Style is Bravo's latest attempt to cash in on the juggernaut that is Project Runway. It is a bit like Queer Eye, but with less screaming, in that Gunn travels around the New York City tristate area making over the dowdy, trampy and confused fashion victim. The premiere episode saw Tim in Huntington, Long Island (about 10 minutes from hometown by the way) revamping the wardrobe of a trampy looking mom and hairdresser. A slightly dazed, but gorgeous, Veronica Webb looked on as Tim diagnosed overexposed cleavage and ill-proportioned trousers before diving herself headfirst into the soccer mom's underwear drawer.
After forcing trampy mom to portion out her wardrobe into three categories, Keep, Mend, Toss, the three go shopping. As Bravo is the flaming Queen of corporate whoring, the trio shop exclusively at Macy's, picking up a few mediocre pieces of clothing before heading to a proper lingerie shop in Manhattan where the audience is treated to a blinding parade of bra try-ons, “this one's too pointy,” “this one's too round”- ugh.
Like I said at the beginning, I heart Tim Gunn but this show is too forced, too contrived and just plain dull. If you want to watch a makeover program, stick to TLC's or BBC America's much more entertaining What Not to Wear, of which both the American and British versions are far more caddy, bitchy, funny and, at times, heartwarming.

B has entered the chat room.
KT (8:38:21 PM): Well if Suchin Pak says "the party has officially started", then I'm sold
JK has entered the chat room.
B (8:39:58 PM): Is it just me or has Alicia Keys gone from classy hot chick to "I'm gonna spank you until you're crying" hot
KT (8:40:22 PM): is she going for the whole "dominatrix chic" look?
KT (8:40:25 PM): cuz i'm totally into that
JK (8:40:48 PM): It's dungeon chic
KT (8:42:01 PM): OH man! It's Elliot Yamin!
KT (8:42:16 PM): I feel like this year the VMAs are going to be overrun by American Idol alums
KT (8:42:28 PM): now that they've all had their teeth makeovers and whatnot
B (8:42:40 PM): I don't feel like he belongs on MTV. Like, he should be on Lifetime or something.
KT (8:42:57 PM): agreed
KT (8:43:22 PM): wow, Paris Hilton looks like a spoiled trophy wife circa 1983
KT (8:44:42 PM): nothing says "i just got out of jail" like leopard print
B (8:46:42 PM): Yeah, she's really pushing for that "wholesome" look... overcompensating for the fact that she's an ex-con.
KT (8:47:40 PM): i'm officially bored by the preshow, let's get to brit brit already
KT (8:47:55 PM): what's the over/under on one of her boobs flyin out?
KT (8:51:41 PM): I am amused that Paris Hilton thinks that she is starring in "A Film"
B (8:52:45 PM): She's a total thespian.
KT (8:53:12 PM): only 8 and a half minute to go
KT (8:53:59 PM): ugh, I can't handle John Norris anymore, he's killing my soul
B (8:54:43 PM): Little known fact about Mr. Norris: he preys upon younger gentlemen.
KT (8:54:58 PM): oh yeah, i find this surprising in no way
KT (8:55:47 PM): hey so what do we think brit brit will be performing? i'm guessing a medley of past hits as well as her new semi-crappy song
B (8:56:05 PM): I feel like it will be just her new song.
JK (8:56:10 PM): I saw him out with his boytoy, way too hot for the bleach blond man boy Norris
JK (8:56:26 PM): I agree with the medley
JK (8:56:44 PM): Slave 4 U definitely amongst them
KT (8:56:54 PM): i mean, i think we can all agree she will be scantily clad and relatively trashy
JK (8:56:59 PM): well, at least a girl can dream it is true
KT (8:56:59 PM): i mean, this is britney in vegas
KT (8:57:18 PM): let us not forget this is the same town she got married in a few years ago
KT (8:57:23 PM): for 72 hours
KT (8:57:36 PM): ahh those were simpler times, when she was still hot, before k-fed and the babies
JK (8:59:19 PM): I am so confused by the Foo Fighters being here and being what? The house band?
JK (8:59:23 PM): Why?
KT (8:59:37 PM): well, they dont suck
B (8:59:38 PM): Jack White was last year.
B (8:59:49 PM): with some old dude I do not recall
KT (8:59:50 PM): nah i think it was the uh... jack white's side project
KT (8:59:57 PM): the uhh, what are they called?

Live Blogging the VMA's with The Sluts
Welcome to the live blogging on the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards. We have a very special treat for you today, the newcomers here on The Television Slut will be blogging along side the old hands of The Music Slut. Stay tuned for the witty banter...and or drunken ranting. One or the other.
Call Me Crazy...
But I'm rooting for poor ol' Britters. The VMAs have been on such a steady decline over the last few years, MTV is completely relying on the location of Vegas and Britney's perf to help bring up the ratings this year. Talk about pressure. But I guess this is the perfect opportunity for her to fix her rep. She's gonna do it. I can feel it... Stay tuned.
The VMAs!!!
In honor of being spawned from the loins of the wonderous site, The Music Slut, we felt it best to have our first extravaganza of blogging awesomeness take place on the magical night of the MTV Video Music Awards. And by magical, I mean weird, silly, and borderline outdated. Granted, being 26 years old, I don't watch much in the way of MTV these days, thusly I am only vaguely interested in the sorts of people they are parading out during the spectacle of a pre-show they are currently airing. But no matter what, I think it's safe to say that the glory days of the VMA's are in the past. I only kind of hope that tonight I am proven wrong. Who knows, maybe the big Britney Spears/Criss Angel collaboration will bring MTV out of its funk. Stand by, enjoy the show, and the blogtastic fun that is about to take place.
Suddenly We See
Slut is defined as "a person, especially a woman, considered sexually promiscuous." Well, um, we officially have no comment about that. Instead, slut to us is defined as a complete openness to try all things and if we like something, an utter desire to keep coming back for more. As Sex and the City's Samantha once said "I'm a tri-sexual, I'll try anything once." So whether it is Six Feet Under or My Sweet Sixteen, we'll be watching...just not always swallowing.
From the people who brought you the whorish goodness of The Music Slut, welcome to the brand spanking new Television Slut. Over the course of the next few weeks we'll be introducing you to a band of new writers but for now, say hi to editor KT. A tramp from way back, KT works in film and television in New York and will be sharing with us fresh insights and insider information into the dark world they call "the biz."
