BAFW TV Guide - New Comedies Fall 2009

I've been missing for some time from this page. I'd like to say I was doing interesting things in exotic locales . . . but it's mostly been watching the boob-tube. And by that, I mean television, not a freaky-deaky porn site that is similar to YouTube in it's ease of use. But, we're straying from the subject at hand.

Community
"Community" is a new comedy on NBC that plays during their Thursday night block of comedy. It's one of the best half hours of hilarity out right now if you wanted my personal opinion (which I'm guessing is why you're actually taking the time to read this). "Community" stars the great Joel McHale who basic cable TV viewers will know from E's "The Soup". He's part of an ensemble cast that includes Chevy Chase, who is also hilarious in this show. Pretty much the whole cast brings a little something different to the show, set in a fictional community college, and so far, it's always been consistently great. If you haven't jumped on board yet, please do. You're missing out.

Modern Family
The next new comedy of this fall season that I have been thoroughly enjoying is ABC's "Modern Family". This show plays on Wednesday nights (tonight if you're reading this the day that I posted it) and it's also something you can't afford to miss. Otherwise, you'd be comedy bankrupt. There's a lot of funny people in this show, notably the great Ed O'Neill, who you will remember from "Married with Children". Here, he's paired up with a Colombian actress Sofia Vergara (who many male individuals of Hispanic descent will remember from helping them get through puberty). They make up 1/3 of the family portrayed in "Modern Family". The other couples include a gay couple that just adopted a Chinese baby and a more traditional family with a father that tries too hard to be his kids' friends. The scene in the first episode where he's detailing his knowledge of text abbreviations was "LOL". Even though my description isn't doing the show much justice, trust me when I tell you that you need to DVR or TiVo this show ASAP.

BAFW TV Guide will return within the next couple of days where I will talk about new dramatic shows I've been checking out for the first time and enjoying. It might not even take 14 days to come up with a new post. Keep your eyes peeled . . . figuratively speaking. You need those puppies for TV viewing.

When Guttenberg Attacks!

I don't remember Steve Guttenberg being this angry or intense. My memories of the 80's and early 90's are somewhat vague (thanks to selective amnesia), but he always seemed like a nice guy. At least a witty motherfucker in those "Police Academy" movies. And his recent "Dancing with the Stars" stint (not that I watch that show, rather, I've seen clips on shows that make fun of that show, ex: The Soup & Best Week Ever), he almost seemed like he was happy and almost blessed to have a camera pointed at him again. Which is why, I'm sitting here, scratching my head, wondering what the fuck these pictures are all about. Is he mad that the paparazzi are following him around and snapping pictures of him? Isn't that what you wanted Guttenberg? Some sort of celebrity again? Because if that's what you want, then get used to it buddy. This is what modern day celebs have to contend with on a daily basis, and even though some might not like the attention, its essential to their success. So, if you want to go back to living in a tiny apartment somewhere, getting your "Police Academy" residual checks . . . then fine. But if you want to kick-start your "career", get used to this.

Or not, it's still kinda funny. More pictures below.





Mad or constipated? You be the judge.

"The Hills" Have Upskirt

Audrina Patridge is one of those chicks from that "reality" show "The Hills", which is kind of like a sequel to "Laguna Beach", and it's totally not fake. Like, for truth and stuff. Who is MTV kidding by the way. From what I've seen, clips on shows like "Best Week Ever" and "The Soup", the show is probably closer to fiction than reality. And it's not always great fiction. But, enough about that, what we have here is actual reality. Audrina Patridge has been caught exiting a vehicle, the sexy way. Upskirt first. When will these people learn. Extreme close up at the end of these words. Because, extreme close-ups are sexy and classy.
