Looks like the word’s getting out about one of our favorite new series, Penelope: Princess of Pets. And rightfully so. We knew NYC comedy darlings Kurt Braunohler and Kristen Schaal were on to something when they said they were doing a show about a girl who can talk to animals. And wants to kill a U.S. senator. And has a hard-drinking bird named Ruby. And um… just watch it already.
Anywho, New York magazine has officially located Penelope on its weekly cultural radar thingy called the Approval Matrix.
That’s a bit small, but if you look down in the southern-most area of the “Brilliant/Lowbrow” quadrant (right next to Ryan Gosling!), you’ll notice…
OK. That’s a bit fuzzy. But you get the idea.
Also, check out Kurt and Kristen’s Web site, Hot Tub, for more wet fun.
Get it?? Because we don’t.
We’re so psyched. On Wednesday, the 16th of May, the one and only Bob Odenkirk (Mr. Show, anyone?) is premiering his new series right here on Super Deluxe. What’s it called?
What’s it about? These two guys, Derek Waters and Simon Helberg…
…and their friends, and the ups-and-downs of their lives in Los Angeles, chasing women and trying to crack into the acting biz.
Most importantly, we’re freakin’ thrilled to have them! In the meantime, here are some promos to whet your appetite.
Oh me, oh my. Where have the years gone? Seems like just yesterday I was in a movie theater somewhere in Virginia Beach cutting a hole in the bottom of a popcorn box, putting my penis in it, and trying to make my teenaged love-bride “touch it… just touch it” while taking in the Corey Haim-Corey Feldman magnum opus, License To Drive.
Flash forward to the present day: I recently completed a six-month-long “Good Touch Only” intimacy course. My teenage love-bride is supposedly living in Tacoma, WA, making vegan pancakes at someplace called Meatless In Seattle. And the Brothers Corey—after respective journeys through personal and professional ice ages filled with drug addiction, Hollywood D-movie slumming and VH1 resurrections—are now back with a new A&E reality show coming out this summer called (what else?) “The Two Coreys.”
Never one to be outdone, Super Deluxe just got its grubby little mitts on a couple of clips we suspect are from the new show. Enjoy!
Ssshhh. You hear that? That’s the sound of punk rock’s rotting corpse being defiled by a generation of Hot Topic emo-abortions like this guy.
