Cooter Scooter: Seth Rogen, "Lost" Review, and Some New ABC Shows

Dammit, I wish I could work at home all the time. Shit would be off the hook.

He really is committed to that Green Hornet role.

Guess who came out thinner than he usually is? Seth Rogen looked mighty skinny and mighty fit as he came out for his interview for Late Night with Jimmy "Douchebag" O'Douchebag last night. The dude was promoting his next movie Observe & Report, which, to me, looks like the R-rated version of that Kevin James-stinker Paul Blart: Mall Cop.

Good for Seth Rogen, I guess. If I was a stoner overactor who got in good with a movie director that was destined for stardom, then that would be my meal ticket out of this blow hole of a desert. But no jealousy. All kudos and congratulations. BTW, is that the dude from Crash and Shooter and World Trade Center in Observe & Report. He can do comedy too?

Oh, Kate. So dirty and yet so f-able.

So this week was a "Kate episode" of Lost. I hate when the show centers on one character and then the following day at work, all my co-workers start saying "Sayid is a bad-ass. You could tell. They were flashbacking to him a lot." Or "Jack is a real F-up, man; Just shoot yourself and get it over with!"

Nevertheless, we're slowly finding out the details on what led each of the Oceanic 6 to go back to the island. We've heard from Sayid, who last episode tried to get it on with a beautiful ribeye-sucking woman bounty hunter, got transported to the 1977 version of the island in handcuffs, captured by the Dharmas, befriend a young Ben Linus, and then escape the clutches of the Dharmas just to shoot the creepily-looking Ben in the chest. I felt a sense of self-worth and sadism with that shooting.

Anyways, we follow Kate in the ep titled What Ever Happened, Happened taking up her fake motherly duty in dual time periods. He gives up Aaron, not her son BTW, to the boy's grandmother in order to go back to the island to find the boy's mother. Then, he takes on the duty to saving the 12-year-old Ben Linus. I still don't give a crap if he is a kid, considering what Linus would become. And with this, we get next week's "judgment" of the grown up Ben Linus. ABC.com's summary for the next ep Dead is Dead reads this: "
To atone for sins of the past, Ben must attempt to summon the smoke monster in order to be judged." Oooo. The smoke monster returns. Finally, he'll unmask himself to reveal that he's Dom Deluise. Your guess is as good as mine.

He still sucks dick for coke.

Finally, ABC is set to roll out the finest programs for midseason. ("Finest" used very loosely, BTW) First, Bob Saget returns to the network that made him an unlikely star with Surviving Suburbia (9:30 p.m., Monday). No Full House here. Save for the coke addict guy that sucked dick for coke in Half-Baked, the patriarch role suits him well. And now that he has an edge about him as exhibited in his stand-up and, most raunchily, his twist on The Aristocrats joke, we can expect him to be the filthy dad with a heart...right? I'll be watching. But I ain't watching no tired-ass Dancing With the Stars before it. Shawn Johnson still in right? Maybe, I will watch.

Then, the new cop drama The Unusuals hits the air waves in the old Life on Mars time slot Wednesdy at 10 p.m. From all the promos running, it looks like they gathered a bunch of people acting in first run episodics and just crammed then into a police drama with a twist. (I'm still unclear as to what it's all about.) I don't, however, buy Amber Tamblyn as a cop. Nope. There's no way you're coercing me into her role. She was talking to dead people in that one show she was in. Or was that God through other people? Fuck, if I know. She was definitely passing those jeans in that sisterhood, right? I just don't buy it at all, dammit. Oh, yeah, the show has Michael from Lost and Adam Goldberg from **INSERT QUIRKY MOVIE, TV SHOW HERE**.
