So here is the preview for the Kennedy's mini-series that I guess is causing some controversy.  Still something that I need to remind myself to DVR.

We DVR'ed Conan's first show of his new series. It seems like it's gonna be a good one. He even played some songs with Jack black.I had no idea that he was so good on the guitar.

I love Kids in the Hall.  So much so that when our cable company removed Comedy Central from its listings a few of us became disgruntled and contacted the Cable station to let them know how we felt.  Surprisingly, they really didn't care to listen to a bunch of teenagers.

Anyway, Kids in the Hall reunited for a mini-series that was just as good and shocking as any of their earlier stuff.  Here is a trailer, watch the series if you see it on TV. 

Lol, Too Funny!  I bet she's glad she doesn't have to do bank commercials anymore. 

Jane Henson, widow of Muppet creator Jim Henson, is donating the original Kermit puppet to the Smithsonian Museum along with 9 others.  The original Kermit was made from a jacket that Jim's mother threw away. 

So funny! I know it's old but it's too funny not to post.

Her famous catch-phrase, 'I Die', was used for inspiration in a Sept 2010 editorial spread for Harper's Bazaar with designers like Vera Wang and Michael Kors doing the deed.  Gorg!

I was wondering what they were going to do about replacing Steve Carrell on The Office.  The show would be dead if some new blood wasn't brought in.  Today I read that two actors I really enjoy, that both have shows on Showtime, and that are hilarious, are up for the part.

****BEWARE THE CLIP BELOW HAS A TON OF PROFANITY*****

Eastbound and Down/Kenny Powers - Played by:  Danny McBride


Flight of the Concords/Murray Band Manager - Played by Rhys Darby



I fell in love with Flight of the Concords the first time I saw their comedy special, Highly recommended.  Anyway their Showtime TV show was filmed in our neighborhood.  For any of you out there reading this that came to 199 Engert might recognize the park in the background of the clip below.  It was filmed a block from our house (away from the BQE).  Makes me remember the good times we had in NY. 

Hugh Laurie, known for his role on House, is releasing a Blues Album through Warner Music Group. 

He's quoted as saying:
'I am drunk with excitement at this opportunity. I know the history of actors making music is a chequered one, but I promise no one will get hurt. I am particularly thrilled to be working with Joe Henry, who has produced some of my favourite records of all time, and I can't wait to get started.'

I personally can't wait to hear it.  I don't watch House all the often but when I do I get hooked on the episode immediately.  Anyway, lots of people mention his guitar playing, that I don't remember, so at least he's a real musician.  Hopefully it lives up to the hype. 

So I've been trying to watch as much of the X Games this year as possible.  Hopefully watching all these extreme sports I'll get inspired to really go for it this year with snowboarding.  (Oh yeah, it's already time to start thinking about it again.  We already put deposits on our season passes.) 

I was excited to see Shaun White skateboard in the Skate Vert competition.  I thought he did a great job but he ended up with the Silver.  I found some video if you didn't catch it.

Later in the coverage we were watching Motor Cross where Paris Rosen was involved in the worst crash I've ever seen.  While he was attempting to do a front flip he landed on his neck.  I will warn you that this isn't something you should watch if you're sensitive.  According to reports he's able to move his toes so thankfully he should have a full recovery.

NBC has announced that 30 Rock will be doing a live show on October 14th, twice actually, so both coasts will be able to see it that way.  I can't wait!

So while at the 'Carnage Party' the other night a girl sat at our table and I heard her quoting my all time favorite cartoon series 'Metalocalypse'.  Most people haven't seen it but if you love metal or just hilarious cartoons about music you need to check it out.  I tried to find some clips that would show a bit about the characters and some of my favorite clips.  BEWARE:  There is quite a bit of colorful language in the clips.  Just a warning, if your sensitive.  

Opening Credits:  A little hard to understand but the theme music is awesome


So here are some clips of the band members.  I few have their own montages so it was easy, for the others I had to improvise.

Nathan Explosion - Lead Singer


Murderface - Bass


Skwisgaar - Lead Guitar


Toki - Guitar


Pickles the Drummer


I found a few other clips that I love.  Hope you enjoy!
