HR Pufnstuf

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008 |

Woah. This one really brought back memories. “HR Pufnstuf…he’s your friend when things get rough. HR Pufnstuf…can’t do a little cuz you can’t do enough.” Saturday mornings haven’t been the same since.

hulu: tv. on demand.

hulu logoI took a snow day today and thought I’d catch up with the 3 email accounts I’ve been neglecting. I found an invitation to beta test hulu.

From their website:

Hulu’s ambitious and never-ending mission is to help you find and enjoy the world’s premium content when, where and how you want it. We hope to provide you with the web’s most comprehensive selection of premium programming across all genres and formats – television shows, feature films, clips, and more. Additionally, we want to give you more choices of when and where you can enjoy your favorite programming, while creating innovative experiences that let you watch and participate in online video in new and exciting ways.

I was just happy I got to watch House - Frozen since the Super Bowl snarfed up my DVR recording.

No glitches, reasonably large sized viewing screen, manageable 30 second commercial breaks and lots of opportunity for feedback. So far, only 2 of the majors are on board–FOX and NBC–but I suppose others will follow suite. Looks good to me. Hey, any chance to catch a show I enjoy(ed), is okay by me.

I’ve got a couple invitations if anyone’s interested. Leave me a comment.

Redneck Reality TV

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008 |

mbrw logoOkay, last night, I watched the funniest hour of TV that I’ve seen in a year. But, you know, I kinda feel bad laughing. I mean, Geneva and Kyle looked so dadgum happy standing there amongst their camo wedding party. But, pink rifles and snakes and boodwhar parties and nipple clamps and camo toes….oh my. I’m feeling ‘boobed’ myself.

Try out some down-home voyeurism yerself. CMT airs My Big Redneck Wedding Friday at 9PM. Check your local listings.

Check out the wedding photo album. | Boobed and Bottle-rocketed video.

I”m Just a Bill…

billYes, I’m only a Bill, and I’m sitting here on Capital Hill.

I learned more about Congress and bills and laws from that song than any class could ever have taught me. Schoolhouse Rock was what kids from my generation got to see in between cartoons on Saturday morning (yes, that was the only day they were on) instead of commercials. Now that was responsible programming!

It was fun to stumble upon this post, Where Are They Now - The Schoolhouse Rock Singers and learn more about the people behind the project. Via Neatorama.

For old times sake:
