holy shit, over a week with no updates? that’s not very prompt of me.

so in brian news: i spent the last week mostly broke and avoiding expenditures. lots of time at home reading away — finished another book which i will tell you about soon. also watched a lot of sopranos i obtained by various unsavory means, and i think i’m addicted. watching 3 to 4 hour-long episodes of a single show in one day seems almost creepy for some reason.

but the easy highlight was going to see a show on friday put on by uncabaret called the other network. it’s a series they’re doing all through june and july at the knitting factory where they show great TV pilots that the geniuses of network television never saw fit to actually pick up and put on the air, with introductions by the writers. in the coming weeks there are various projects from the likes of bob odenkirk, robert smiegel, and conan o’brien, to name a few. what a great idea! maybe i’ll see you at one of the future shows.

this past friday though, they showed the amazing heat vision and jack, which you may or may not have heard is the story of jack black as the super-intelligent astronaut (he gets his powers from the sun) and his talking motorcycle, voiced by owen wilson. oh how i wish this had been a real show, but just having the chance to see the single half-hour pilot was amazing. i strongly suggest you take to your favorite P2P network and try to track this down, it is well, well worth it. shouldn’t be hard either, i had it myself for re-viewing the very next day. you, however, won’t have the pleasure of hearing dan harmon’s hilarious anecdotes, but you have to take what you can get.
