aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I saw the first one on a podcast, and it had me on the floor laughing. It's like Tenacious D, but waaaay funnier.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"Bowie in Space"

Oh I love that song! Damn my non-HBO-getting ways!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Oh I love that song! Damn my non-HBO-getting ways!

The video itself was a little bit literal but Jemaine's Bowie impression in the episode was spot-on.

Yes! I loved the "different eras of Bowie".

It's like Tenacious D, but waaaay funnier.

That's exactly how I feel. And I like the music WAAAAAY better.

I am loving Flight of the Conchords. It's really impressive how perfectly they can mock so many different styles of music.

Live album you say?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Entourage: man, it sucks, that E is subsuming his own abilities for Vince. He's so used to it, though, that it seems natural to him. Fucking Walsh.

I kind of think E is right about Walsh and they'll get rid of him before the movie is made. Though it's kind of fun having the arch nemesis vibe. I'm curious about why E did come out west if it wasn't to produce.

Oh, it was definitely all for Vince. He never would have left his manager's gig at Sbarro's if Vinnie hadn't made him come out there--managing Vince was just an excuse Vince used to make him come. Lo and behold, he actually took to it. He only produced because it was Vinnie's movie, and he turned out to be good at that too. It's just in his nature, and his history, to let Vinnie take the spotlight.

So, at least as funny as John Kerry telling jokes, then?

While that's all true, I think he also has strong urge to prove that he can be successful without Vince. Or maybe that was just something he was trying to believe for whatsername.
