I'm watching a Time/Life Music Collection infomercial starring Kevin Cronin from REO Speedwagon right now.

Needless to say, I'm in awe.

Did you see the classic soft rock one w/ Air Supply?  They're almost 60 now.

and also they smoked a lot. its what happened. stop being such an idiot.

ha...isnt it about the advertising business in nyc circa 1950's?....maybe the only place in the world where there was more smoking than in that circle would be the newspaper business in nyc circa 1950's

my cousin absolutely loves this show and begs me to watch it....something that will never happen

you would probably like it. i mean, the only brotha on the show is the elevator operator, but you'd like it.

Familiar faces in David Simon pilot

"The Wire" creator David Simon is recruiting some old friends for his new HBO pilot "Treme."

"Wire" alums Wendell Pierce and Clarke Peters are set and Khandi Alexander, who worked with Simon on "The Corner" is in final negotiations to star in "Treme," which Simon created with Eric Overmyer.

"Treme," which takes its title from an area in New Orleans and is executive produced by Simon, Overmyer and Nina Noble, is a post-Katrina-themed drama that chronicles the rebuilding of New Orleans through the eyes of local musicians.

Pierce will play Antoine Batiste, an accomplished jazz trombonist who is now scratching for gigs, trying to support a live-in girlfriend and a new baby, while still carrying a torch for a failed marriage to Ladonna Batiste (Alexander), the mother of his two children, who is single-handedly keeping her bar afloat. Peters will play Albert Lambreaux, a big chief of the White Feather Nation trying to bring the tribe's members home.

Alexander is coming off CBS' "CSI: Miami" where she spent seven seasons. She could return to the show as a guest star, reprising her role as medical examiner Alexx Woods.

Who wants to talk some Generation Kill? I'm all caught up now. When do the new episodes air?

[Father Demon]

Season 1 Californication is playing on Showtime starting this week.  If you didn't catch it last season, you like lots of tits and ass and a miserable gruff with the best one-liners, I suggest you check it out.

Did I mention lots of tits and ass?

Who wants to talk some Generation Kill? I'm all caught up now. When do the new episodes air?

all the characters are great...even though i want to murder some of them, "Capitan America" being at the top of the list

[SD_Eagle5]

I love to hate Captain America.

[SunMo]

i really hope he dies before the show ends...i'm sure he won't...but damn i hope he does.

[Seabiscuit36]

i really hope he dies before the show ends...i'm sure he won't...but damn i hope he does.

"We're all gonna die if we sit here, i have great men in there dying!"

[SunMo]

they're worse than the goddamn VC!


oh, this one is telling us of an ambush

[Seabiscuit36]

him and Encino man are farging annoying.  The only bad part i can think of was Encino man last week, doing the football analogy, and his celebration.  All i wanted to see was a Druganov round go thru is domepiece

[SunMo]

encino man is the other awful one.  all of these characters were based on real people right? 

[Seabiscuit36]

yeah, i hope they are watching and decide to commit suicide
