Obama Responsible For Return Of 'Arrested Development'?

August 2009:

The people have spoken.

August 2011:

President Obama addresses the nation.

Sunday afternoon...

It's announced at The New Yorker Festival, that the show is coming back for one more season.

Coincidence?  I think not.

We Can Rebuild Him...

Seriously, though.  When talking to my surgeon's assistant prior to the first surgery last week, he estimated that between the three procedures, and a combined six months of follow up appointments involved, their office would likely be billing my insurance provider somewhere in the ballpark of $2 million this year.  He said that they would probably only receive $250-300k of that.  But still.

Steve Austin doesn't seem that special in 2011.

America's Chief Export: Syphilis

In the last decade, the UK has brought us some decent television.  With just 'American Idol' and 'The Office', remakes of British TV shows take up a large portion of many of American's weekly viewing.  And, don't get me started on 'Doctor Who'.

I guess it's time that we return the favor.  Premiering on May 24th, on MTV UK, is the British version of 'The Jersey Shore'.  It's called 'The Georgie Shore'.  Here is a preview.



I'm not kidding.  This is a real show.  On the cast bios, "Gary, 23" reads as follows:

"he has a manhood that’s the size of a TV remote control (he even has photographic evidence) and being “mint” in bed… or so he says!"

Maybe the Mayans were right about the whole "2012/End of the world" thing.  I need to take a shower. 

Funny How Common Place Pot Is In Our Society

Pot even seems to be more popular than religion:



I'm not saying that I find issue with that.

New Gay Character On Glee?

Vanity Fair recently interviewed Chord Overstreet(yes, that's his real name) for the scoop on his role as Sam on this season of Glee.  Sam is the new kid in school who becomes quarterback of the football team after Finn gets booted.  He's also the new recruit for the school's glee club.

The rumor floating around the web is that Sam is also going to be Kurt's new love interest this season.  If true, they're poised to be TV's most prominent gay characters since Will Truman and Jack MacFarland.  They would also be good role models for young people in the LBGT community.

Here is an excerpt from the interview:

Now, of course, the question everyone wants to know is if the rumors that you will become Kurt’s boyfriend on the show are accurate?

I actually don’t know that yet. We get everything an episode at a time. As of what we’ve shot now, they haven’t revealed anything about my character in a relationship way. But I think we’ll find out soon enough.

What about off the show? Any chemistry between you and Chirs Colfer?

(Laughs.) There’s a chemistry between everybody on the show. It’s weird because they’ve kind of all known each other for a year, there’s a bunch of inside jokes that I don’t get yet. You feel a little on the awkward side about jumping in with a new cast that really know each other. But everyone’s been cool. Chris has been really cool. Dianna (Agron), Corey (Monteith), Mark (Salling), Kevin (McHale). They’ve all been super cool.

So we don’t know what future episodes hold, but what if that is the case? When I spoke to Dianna Agron recently she said that one of the joys of working on the show is opening the scripts and discovering all the crazy stuff that’s about to happen. How would you feel if you opened up a script and found out you’d be playing a gay love interest?

It would just be one of those things where you have to do what the material says. The writers have a different twist for each episode. I signed on to do my job, so I need to do my job the best I can. I don’t know if I necessarily would take my work home with me! But if that was the case, I’m sure it would be fun. I mean, I’ve done a couple scenes with Chris so far, and he’s a talented guy, so I’m sure it would be a fun thing. Acting wise.

There is rumored to be man-on-man kissing. You’d be down with that?

I don’t know if I would be totally down with that outside of work. I’ve never kissed a guy before. But it’s acting. It’s kind of one of those things. Currently you have to kiss a bunch of strange people in the world of film and television.

You have to kiss a bunch of strange people?

Throughout your whole career, there’s a bunch of people you might have to kiss. Say there’s this character opposite you, and you might not be into her—or him, personally. You just gotta’ do it. That’s your job.

And beyond? You’re willing to go full Brokeback?

I have no idea. I’m going to say, no comment. I’m going to dig myself in a hole.

He's totally straight in real life....LOL.  Here's a clip featuring Chord from Tuesday's episode.  He's a pretty good singer.
