Green Light This Muthaf--ka Now!

For some reason, I can actually see Jason Schwartzman do this exact sitcom. I say can because the clip is from a fake show. It's the show within the Funny People movie set for release in August starring Adam Sandler and directed by Judd Apatow. But today, the "show" called Yo, Teach! got some real-looking promotion and prime positioning on the NBC website.

I guess doing some elaborately fake things is the rage in promoting movies these days. If that's true, I think I should stage a fake male pregnancy to promote this blog. Believe me, I haven't had my period yet and I'm starting to worry. :-/

Sunday Was Easter, Weird

I have officially "Perezed" this pic. Did you know Kristin Davis had a Hitler 'stache?

I was actually happy to go to church on Sunday, however long I haven't gone and however the time I went (8 a.m., but sure beats sunrise services). I followed the Catholic tradition of going to church on the "biggie" days of the year. The other days beside Easter, under unofficial Christian protocol, are on Christmas and when you desperately want God to do something for you. Don't think you haven't asked for something from God one day and then, the other days, it's a simple output of the Creator. Don't put him on the backbruner, dammit!

Anyways, Easter weekend fell on the same weekend the droves of gay men decided to show up in my sleepy town. You know, it's the fabulous day of the year for the male homosexual persuasion: White Party Weekend. It's unique to find out the lore behind the weekend. You find out things like what exactly the 25,000 or so gay men do on this particular weekend, no details included. The thing off-putting was that I live just down street from my town's gay central and I could literally hear and see the Party go down. There was a freakin' ferris wheel there! A big gay ferris wheel. Needless to say, I reveled and detested the fact of the party being just screaming distance away. But you gotta admit, they have some cool ass music. Damn, that music is hot.

Fitting into the day of the White Party, I decided willingly to watch Sex and the City: The Movie On Demand. Why you ask? Eh. I don't know either. I mean, the day just seemed destined to have me sit in on two hours of estrogenic hijinks and talk of Louis Vuitton handbags and shoes! SHOES! I really haven't watched the series and something about seeing Samantha have sex is just icky. The movie was cute, for the most part. Then, I made the required subsequent vomiting after viewing the movie. Freakin' SJP. She's not as hot as she used to be in the early 90s. Dude, I just remembered. She was in the First Wives Club. Eck, how am I rehashing these chick flicks?

I also watched Chuck On Demand as well. This show's pretty underrated for NBC, but, then again, they promo the hell out of Heroes and Medium and nothing really comes of it so I figure the same is happening to Chuck. I actually like this show and plan to watch tonight's new one coming on at 9 p.m. That's if my fancy is put off at that point. I mean, I watched freakin' Sex and the City and heard a gay disco go down feet away.

Eh. No more blogging. I figure this is filler just to get back on track after a whole week of getting sick and spreading it. Those herpes flare ups are awfully inconvenient.

NBC Station: F*CK YOU, LENO!

Angry blogger, too: F*CK YOU, LENO!

Finally, somebody agrees with me about the Jay Leno primetime jump to 10 p.m. For the record, I think Leno's planned move to a nightly primetime schedule, which will end 35 minutes before The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien, is so wrong on so many levels. Leno knew he was losing his spot four years ago and, being the hard-headed prick that he is, he used his so-called "pull" at NBC to keep his name in the social conscious. NBC froze, then flinched, and essentially let Leno butt-rape them and Conan O'Brien into creating the new show. Leno's move just steals the thunder of Conan's stint on The Tonight Show. The only way TTS with Conan O'Brien will work is if the Leno show is entirely different from the Conan show, or some body assassinates this Leno weasel into oblivion.

There's also the move WHDH in Boston, MA reportedly pulled. The NBC-affiliated station owned by the good folks at Sunbeam Television announced through its website that it will launch a new 10 p.m. hourlong newscast essentially pre-empting the Leno show this fall, Variety reported today. And sure enough, when NBC caught wind of this news, the smell of a shit storm was on the horizon. NBC said the pre-emption will put WHDH in breach of its affiliation contract and they will not hesitate to pull its affiliation. WHDH said the move was "purely financial," aka the hell with Jay Leno! Who gives a shit about NBC anyways? They are a far cry from the days of Seinfeld and Friends. They recently aired that Momma's Boy reality dating show essentially putting the net on "jump the shark" status. And the best part of this is that this is happening in Leno's hometown. May I also mention that it's Conan O'Brien's hometown as well. WHDH definitely let everyone know who they are behind.

Now, all NBC stations! Follow your affiliated brethren in taking Jay Leno off the air! Oh, yeah, F*CK YOU TOO, KEVIN EUBANKS!

Get Ready to "Make It Work" This Summer

Tim Gunn, believe it or not, is my hero. No man can pass for straight and come up with such keen fashion sense like him. He is straight, right?

The suck fest that is the lawsuit over the airing of Project Runway's sixth season has come to an end. In a statement by NBC Universal, the owner of the former home to PR, Bravo, the Weinstein Company, which began with two keen, fat, possibly gay Jewish brothers,will pay the peacock-globe company to air the program. (Once again, EW.com reported on the story first. GR!)

"NBC Universal, The Weinstein Company and Lifetime have resolved their disputes," read a statement released today by NBC Universal, which owns Bravo, Runway's home for five seasons. "The Weinstein Company will pay NBCU for the right to move Project Runway to Lifetime. All of the parties are pleased with the outcome.

(When The Weinstein Co. announced last April that Runway would be moving to Lifetime, NBC Universal sued for breach of contract. Eventually, The Weinstein Co. countersued NBC Universal for allegedly failing to properly promote season 5, and Lifetime then sued both parties.)

The rest of the article goes on to tell what Lifetime and the Weinstein Company said about the end of the legal battle. I love what they say because it's a virtual wanking-fest among Lifetime, NBC, and the Weinsteins. And it's very ironic considering each party sued each other and I believe a trading of a mule and a couple of loaves of bread were involved...and I think there was a part where Christian Soriano had to actually do it with a girl. Anyways, the show is coming back and the questioning of my manhood will return. God, I still love Project Runway.

This has absolutely nothing to do with PR except that it's what I still consider the hottest thing Heidi Klum has done.
