Go Camping

So over at A.V. Club that are pointing out what everyone's thinking about OTH.

While it is commendable for the creator to give fans an ending in case the show was not picked up, now that it has been renewed for 13 episodes we are stuck with a series with nowhere to go. Every avenue has been explored, every overly serious voice over delivered. Beyond just throwing in the towel and making the entire thing an over-the-top festival of camp (which I would heartily enjoy, mind you) there’s nothing for these people to say, and imagining 13 more episodes like this one is almost painful to think about.

It's been suggested here at OMG about outrageous storylines before but it's summer why not go camping again.

After a rift between Clay and Julian over who's hair is worse, it turns into an all battle royale splashed across the media with Julian accusing Clay of wearing a hairpiece that Trump wouldn't dare to wear and Clay claiming Julian only married BrookeDavis(TM) for the shoulder pads he needs in all his outfits. They set out to undermind the other and turn Tree Hill against them until it escalates into a frame for frame homage of the famous Krystal/Alexis fight in the fountain.

Bring it Clay.
or ...

After another time jump, Jamie finds out on his 13th birthday he's a werewolf. Teen Wolf is back and playing baseball this time. Another jump he's become a star and the heartthrob of Tree Hill High. But all is not good in the hood, Jamie is estranged from his dad because he is using his "wolfiness" to get ahead and Grandpa Dan tortured that his deal with the dark side caused all this. Dan returns to Tree Hill to sacrifice his grandson to break the curse. But he first his must face Mama Haley in over the top battle at the diner. Haley sacrifices her life setting up it for Nathan to come back and battle his own father for the life of his cursed son. A stray silver bullet flies in the struggle and Jamie is struck. Dying father and son work to save Jamie who comes back as a Zombie Werewolf. Team Jacob? Team Edward? Try Team Jamie.

or..

After the image of Oprah appears to BrookeDavis(TM) on her piece of toast, she tells Julian she has to go by orders of the toast. Taking the toast she leaves Julian and the boys to find herself and Oprah. Julian turns himself into BrookeDavis(TM)to fool the boys, and uses mannequin Lucas as him thinking she'll be back after the postpartum wears off. Julian is left to raise the kids and run the rebuilding fashion empire as BrookeDavis(TM) after Brooke writes them saying she decided to stay in Brazil and become a samba instructor by day and bounty hunter by night, saying she is following her bliss like toast Oprah told her to do. In the final scene a piece of toast pops up with an Oprah on it and a hand takes it, cutting to Peyton who takes a bite with a grin.


And what better for a Two Wheel Tuesday, but this little guy.

This was piece put together of the LaOD party after the Sydney Premiere.

If memory serves Jake and Anne didn't stay too long at the party. It was make an appearance then out of there.

When Moet & Chandon put on a party for the premiere of Love & Other Drugs, Chocolate Fish were handed the exciting task of documenting the night.

Jake didn't need any of those gold-painted waiters, he's got his own Golden Guy at home.

Move Over Jake Gyllenhaal: Sean Connery in TV’s First Incestuous Gay Lip-Smacker

Why is someone bothering to make a movie about dull-as-mud Channing Tatum’s career start as a male stripper when Sir Sean Connery’s early days as a jobbing actor and model are much hotter stuff?

We all know about his greased up, pec-flexing Mr. Universe past. Then last year a couple of almost nudie paintings of the Hollywood legend from his time as an artists’ life model came to light (his modesty was protected by a bulging pouch).

Now the British Film Institute has unearthed what they believe to be the ‘very first gay TV kiss’ and one half of the lip-smacking pair is Connery in an early screen role.

It occurs in a one-off drama called ‘Colombe’ which was originally broadcast by the BBC in 1960. Connery’s character suspects his brother of having an affair with his wife, so he deep-tongues his brother just to find out what bro has that he doesn’t. So it’s also the first incestuous gay kiss on TV and just bad writing.

As to how such a groundbreaking kiss made it onto TV screens at a time when homosexuality was still criminalized in the UK, Dick Fiddy of the BFI says: “… it might have been accepted because of the context and because it was a television version of a classic play by a great French dramatist.”

Dear Ted:
When bearding couples break up, are they truly mad at each other (or even surprised?) when it's over—or is that for appearances too? When they write sad/mad breakup songs about the other, is that just to continue the show and are they both laughing behind the scenes? My rescue kitties, Jake and Zoe, are fascinated by the whole process!
—Arlene in Virginia

Dear Frankenstein Duos:
Oh, honey, it's quite rare that these formulated couples dissolve with no fallout—public or otherwise. See, while lovey-dovey feelings might not be hurt, public images are. So when one half of the fakey duo leaves the other in the lurch, well, sad breakup songs are the least of it! Lawsuits, money and dirty gossip's more the norm!

Dear Ted:

Afternoon Bitch Back

About the Moon project. I do wonder if it was part Jake had scheduling issues and the other was the studios reluctance to sign off on it. I can see them waiting to see how the box office was with Jake for a bigger budget movie before running with it.

Interesting answer from Ted tonight. Makes you wonder if Reese had to way up for how she ended it, and what might have happened this past Dec with Taylor.

Hilarious about OTH. You should be a screenwriter, Special. I saw this at work and laughed out loud but could not make comments from there. Had to wait until I got home. Of course one of the reasons its so funny is that they have already jumped the shark. All that remains is to see how many more times do it until its over.

PG, I was catching up a bit and on ONTD saw a clip of a new TV series coming soon. Called Alcatraz. You have to page back pretty far to see it but you may be able to find it elsewhere with some googling. You were fascinated by Alcatraz during your visit so I thought I would mention it to you.

All quiet on the Jake front these days.

I finally got around to watching that Moet clip. I'm sure Jakey enjoyed those golden boys. Too bad they did not catch him interacting with any of them for that clip.

A little late for Two Wheel Tuesday, but here's a link to a video of Chad Allen, who is participating along with over 2000 other people in a one week ride from San Francisco to LA for AIDS awareness and fundraising. Touching story about finally getting some acceptance from his dad.
