The Whitest Kids U' Know

By PerpleReign on Wed, Feb 13, 2008 6:00 pm

This past Sunday wasn't just the day that Kanye West pulled the dead mom card on live TV during the Grammys. It was also the premiere of the second season of the brilliant, piss-in-your-pants comedy, The Whitest Kids U' Know (Sundays at 11pm, on IFC). In case you have been sleeping on your cutting edge comedy troupe game, The Kids are a group of Brooklyn based SVA alums who give the Mr. Show dudes a run for their money (and I will laugh at anything, absolutely anything David Cross does). Made up of Trevor Moore, Sam Brown, Zach Gregger, Timmy Williams and Darren Trumeter, Jr., the troupe has been garnering acclaim for sometime now-Variety named them one of the “10 Comics to Watch” in 2006. The premiere had my roommate and I weeping as Sam’s ever-present ball sack kept pulling a Where’s Waldo? and as Trevor got too much info on his first date (hint: she handles menstruation by air-drying). If the writers’ strike had you bummed, and you had residual bummed-outness from the loss of Chappelle’s Show as I did, rejoice, because The Whitest Kids U’ Know is here to make everything OK. And by OK, I mean offensive, uncensored, raw and out of control. If you think Michael Cera is the cat’s pajamas, do not sleep on this show. And since the weather has been turrrrrrrible as of late, cop season one which is now available from Genius Products and catch up with the goofy and spot-on humor that is only gonna get better this season.

Attention Artists! Stop the Orphan Act!

By weeklydig on Mon, May 5, 2008 12:23 pm

Two bills were submitted to congress at the end of April — one to the House and one to the Senate — called the Orphan Works Act of 2008. Congress is looking to have this act passed and signed into law by George Bush by June 8, 2008, less than two months after it was introduced.

 

In a nutshell, this act may put many of you creative people in a tight spot when it comes to copyrighting your images and jeopardize long term royalties.
