Your Pop Culture Jibber Jabber for the day

I feel compelled to send you in the direction of Skeet Spirit: A Crunk Tribute to Radiohead, which is exactly what it says it is. You will laugh, or a least smile in amusement. How can you not, with titles like Talk Show Hoes?

Also, Tuesday brings us the last season of Arrested Development on dvd. Enjoy it at your leisure, tis a fine show and went

The Easy Dub All Stars who did the dub side of the moon have done a reggae radiohead album called radiodread. I don't know if it's any good though because I don't like radiohead. I quite liked their Dub Side of the Moon though.

I don't really remember who was responsible for it, but I once had a Dub/Reggae tribute to the Dead Kennedys with the utterly original title of Dread Kennedys. I'm guessing since it didn't make much of an impression that I didn't enjoy it much. Dub Side of the Moon seems more interesting by far.

It would be funny if we Radiohead fans had a sense of humor.
;)

Finally! I've had Season 3 in my amazon cart for months now.

Oscars are in March. Actually, Conan did a fantastic job of hosting the Emmys. He did a funny set-up about getting people to keep their speeches short ("anyone putting a blatant political statement into their speech will be forced to make-out with Al Gore in a Prius") and then he had Bob Newhart put into a sealed lucite container with exactly 3 hours of air - sort of 'keep it short of Newhart bites it'. The show was actually semi-enjoyable, even if Arrested Development didn't win for best comedy show.

Well, you are welcome to speak for yourself and any other radiohead fans, but I found it pretty amusing. There's something very silly about hearing those songs with Li'l Jon samples attached to them.

The last AD... sigh. Oh well, it completes the collection, right?

See, I know that the Globes are in Februrary and The Oscars are in March, but every time I look they're talking about the stupid Emmy's and the Emmy Red Carpet and nominations, and I could swear the damn this happens twice a year. Not that there's any rationale for it to air twice in a year, but it feels like it does. I only ever watch the Oscars, so I suppose I should just pay better attention.

I actually enjoyed it - I was just pulling your chain.
:)

Darn! Went to Target yesterday first thing to get the AD 3 set ($17.99!) and they were already sold out.

I don't normally watch the Emmy either - I wanted to see Conan, mostly. Since I don't have HBO or Showtime, I'm not familiar with most of the shows that are nominated.

uh huh. ;)

See Fox?! SEE??? People like Arrested Development!!! Just like they loved Futurama and (for whatever reason) Family Guy! Oh wait, Family Guy is back on the air and Futurama is coming back (albeit on Comedy Central) next year... huh? Alas, much like Firefly, there will be no more Bluth family on Fox. Grr. Argh.

Only two more years... then it'll be Consey on the tonight show, and if every rumour known to man is true, Late Night with Jon Stewart following it. Ay-ay-yay!
