Remember when BH told you about Ted Leo and friends’ Halloween Misfits cover show? Under the name TV Casualty — including Leo, Atom Goren (Armalite, Atom and his Package), Brian Sokel (AM/FM, Franklin), Andy Nelson (Paint it Black) and Chris Wilson (the Philly-based drummer for Ted Leo’s Pharmacists) — the boys rocked out for the People’s Emergency Center. Pitchfork has the whole show up, but take some time out of your busy schedule to watch the first part here:
From the BrĂĽno DVD extras: Sacha Baron Cohen vs. Pete Rose. The former Phil handles himself quite nicely considering he’s sitting on a man-chair. In his review, Sam Adams wasn’t too hot on BrĂĽno, saying, “the movie’s provocations connect only fitfully, and despite its comparatively strong narrative, it feels less of a piece than Borat, and more like an overlong episode of Cohen’s TV show.”
Don’t fret for Pete, either. Very few things could be as embarrassing as this.
Remember last week when we got crazy excited about Frank Reynolds (aka Danny DeVito) flashing around a copy of the City Paper, Carolyn Huckabay’s cover story on T. Desiree Hines to be exact, on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia? We promised we’d give you the goods when the episode went up on Hulu. Without further ado, lower the lights and check CP out:
Also, if you saw last night’s episode, it’s in your best interest to visit dicktowel.com. Like, now.
Any Monty Python aficionado has to check out this vid from IFC. It’s a Q&A with the five surviving Pythons — John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin — after the premiere of Monty Python: Almost the Truth (The Lawyer’s Cut), the upcoming six hour, mutli-day doc, which premieres on IFC this Sunday, October 18. It’s been getting great review and my DV-R is already set.
Check it out, then think about how all you really want to do tonight is curl up and watch Life of Brian.
