The man behind The Freeloader’s Guide was in town recently and we decided to show him around our offices here at Williams Street. Big fucking mistake. Just take a look.
Happy Halloween everybody. To tell you the truth, we’re a bit burned out on the whole thing. We already played dress up and got drunk and told people we’re a Wiccan lottery winner on Saturday night. So, today just feels like postscript. Luckily, we have this spooooooooky new video from Aesop Rock to watch.
Wait for the special appearance by the guy from the Mountain Goats at the end. Does anybody else think he sounds like Dennis DeYoung?
Thanks, Pitchfork.
Thank you, Mr. Odenkirk. We were just about to dictate a spontaneous IM chat to our interns to be sent to Tim and Eric’s agents, requesting an interview about their new live talk show on Super Deluxe, TIM AND ERIC NITE LIVE, premiering November 6th at 10 p.m. Eastern, when lo and behold, we discovered that you beat us to the punch.
The following tete-a-tete-a-tete is exactly as Bob typed it on www.bobanddavid.com. Enjoy!
E: hey bob
t hey, how’s it going
b Good, you guys
t we’re doing good.
(they check out the new site and compliment me on it)
Tell me about T & E nitelive…
T: It’s uhm, it’s really gonna be live, what you see on line is what’s really happening in the studio. We’re not thinking about it too much, planning it the day of the show.
E: It’s really going to give us a chance to talk about ehings we love,. The first episode is going to be all about Papa Johns pizza and the kind of dips they offer.
T: We’re going to do as much free advertising for large corporations as possible
B: isn it amazing that some people didn’t get Shrek?
E: it was quite amazing, alot of our fans didn’t get it either…
T: I get people not getting the 1st or 2nd, but…
E: But after all the ads for shrek, you just have to get it
T: If I was more cynical I thnk I might have thought this was legitimate, like this was some guerrilla marketing campaign.
B: Who are some of the guests going to be on NITELIVE?
E: most of the time it’s going to be guests from “Awesome Show”. Our first night the musical guest is David Liebe Hart and Richard Dunn is also a guest
T: Richard Dunn has a beard now and will be shaving his beard live…
B: This kind of reminds me of Andy Kaufman a little, but not with the creepy aspect of trying to figure out what kind of “statement” is being made…
T: Also a little of the first season of letterman, where it really was “anything goes”
B: How long is the show?
T: The show is supposed to be 3 minutes.
E: We did a test last week and it was 20 and we still didn’t hit all the material we wanted to do…
T: It’s probably going to be half hour.. 15 minutes to half hour.
B: You will be doing this while you’re doing Awesome Show. Alot of work, right?
E: It is a lot of work, but we are going to try to incorporate “AWESOME” into NITELIVE.
T: it’s for people who like our show, so…if you don’t like AWESOME you probably won’t be into NITELIVE
B: I just want to say it is the tv show I am most excited about, outside of the show David and I just wrote for HBO.
T: We’re really trying not to overthink it…
E: and the fun part is you can skype us in and talk to us via webcam…
B: I use Skype. I talk to the Straitjacket guys in England on it.
T: Do you ever use the Webcam?
B: No. One last thing in this extensive interivew. Tell me about TIMANDERIC LIVE in Vegas.
E: It’s going to be our ultimate live show. See some T&E bits we did on our live tour, also a lot of people you’ve seen on our show and you will see them live.
B: It’s for hbo…somehow?
E: Yeah, it’s at Ceasers palace.
B: How much are tickets?
T: It is a little expensive. It’s way too expensive for the show you’ll get.
E: But the neat thing is, the night before, on the 14th they are doing a big party for Awesome show, and fans can come. It’s at Ceaser’s Palace at 8 oclock, totally free.
Bob: Thanks guys, for my first and last interview.
(I thought it would be cool and easy to talk to the guys and just type it right into the site. It sucked and they had to keep stopping to let me type. I won’t ever do this again…hope you liked it)
Oh, it’s a star-studded yuckfest over at Camp Ferrell. All Will and his venture capital buddies have to do when they want to pinch off a new video is scroll around on their iPhones for Billy Murray’s number, Danny DeVito’s email address or Judd Apatow’s FaceBook URL. And before you can say “The Landlord,” it’s done.
Well, guess what, Will?? We might not have the same Hollywood connections as you. We might not have the same playful rapport with the rich and famous and Brooke Shields. We might not spend our weekends in Sausalito, eating gelato with the Wilson brothers or whatever it is you guys do together. But we do have an ace in our hole that just debuted on our home page: Neil Patrick Harris.
That’s right. Doogie motherfucking Howser is in the new Powerloafing.
Immortal, indeed.
Scary like the mother in this photo: you can’t see her face, but judging by what she has done to her very own flesh-and-blood creation this Halloween, you can easily discern what a raging psychopath she is.
Exhibit A: Doctor Slasher’s Twisted Terror.
Exhibit B: Boo Ya Pictures‘ Halloween Candy
Exhibit C: Bamba Productions‘ Please Take One
…more to come…
Nov. 6th at 10 p.m. Eastern. Be here.
Well, not here on the blog. Be here on Super Deluxe. There’ll be a special page. Which we’ll tell you about. And Skype. And George Clooney.
Does that make sense?
This is so fucked up. Ben was such a funny and awesome human being with so much potential. And so young. He was, like, 26? 27? And he was already freelance joke writing for SNL and Letterman and Adult Swim. All he wanted to do in this life is make people laugh. That’s it. And for some sick, twisted reason, he was cut down in his soon-to-be prime by a vengeful, blood-thirsty and obsolete children’s toy (see today’s premiere, Teddy Saw).
Well, we couldn’t sit by and just let this senseless act of cruelty transpire before our eyes and not immediately retaliate. If not for Ben’s life, then for justice itself. So, we did what any hurt and vindictive blog would do in this situation: we hunted down Teddy Ruxpin like the animal he is and gutted his ass.
He wasn’t hard to find. We just paid a visit to the so-called World of Wonders where the talking shitbag himself was holding court at a Cinnabon with his goofy-ass caterpillar friend, Grubby. We snuck up on their trifling asses, and the rest, as you can see, is what happened to Teddy.
1. Lights out, bitch. Guess you should’ve had some mechanized eyeballs installed in the back of your head.
2. Just relax, Ted. Think of this as one, big hibernation.
3. Now to dial down the volume on that child-molestor voice of yours. Oh wait. You’re already dead. There’s no chance of you lip-synching to some crappy story about Rillonia or whatever shithole you crawled out of ever again.
4. Sorry, Ted. Did that hurt when we cracked open your back? Suck it. There’s no soul in there anyways.
5. Just a cold, unfeeling, inhuman circuit board. Can you believe this engineering marvel is what was responsible for babysitting half of the American population now in their mid-20’s? Maybe we can swap it for a Commodore 64 harddrive.
6. Hey, Ted! Without the skin on your face, you look like you’re 20 years younger! And like the AFLAC duck, faggot.
7. Oh, can we hear that wonderful yarn again about the Treasure of Grundo and the importance of sharing (like you ever gave a crap)? Oh, we can’t. Is that because we’ve systematically dismantled your fucking jaw?
8. Bearskin rug, anyone? It’s going to get chilly in the Super Deluxe dumpster without your fur coat. Nice J.Crew tee, btw.
9. Your empty body cavity looks like it’ll make a good urinal. Maybe we’ll use your legs as Koozies or something.
Oh, and guess what, Ted? We got your friend Grubby, too. He’s going to make a nice, lil’ lamp. Hahahahahaha.
This was for you, Ben. R.I.P.!
Today’s original yuck-fest courtesy of Danny Jock.
Another day leading up to Halloween, another Halloween-themed video premieres on the home page. Today, it’s Maria’s homage to horror movies and assorted creepiness. In real life, Ms. Bamford is joining the rest of the Comedians of Comedy as their 2007 tour resumes tonight in Boston. We know we took the big, helpful icon down off the home page (damn you, redesigners!), but you can still find the CoC’s ongoing video blogs by typing in “Comedians of Comedy” in our lil’ search bar or going here. So far, there are only three, so catching up is easy.
Now back to Maria. She’s multi-talented. Not only can she spoof her family on The Maria Bamford Show, she also does it on The Tim And Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!
For good measure, here’s some of Maria’s stand-up someone grafted on to a Sailor Moon animation. Not sure why they did that. But it’s strangely arrousing.
The Paper of Record seems to think so…
There! The Super Deluxe blog did it! We beat The Daily Show/Colbert Report/The Onion to a pithy and timely observation about the media!! Shit, let’s take it up a notch: in the name of all that is pithy and timely, we hereby claim this NYTimes.com homepage headline as our own special little punchline, and anything you watch or read on The Daily Show/Colbert Report/The Onion about said headline will be considered a direct “thieving” from us.
There. The line in the sand has been drawn.
Sort of.
OK, nobody reads this blog, so it doesn’t matter. But at least we don’t blog about the guy who gave us herpes! We would never, ever, ever do that to him. Again.
