Don’t know about you all… but I’ve had all the hope and change I need…
Did BO buy FOX now?
All humor aside… I sadly note that Talkshow with Spike Feresten will not be renewed for a fourth season.
The recent bonehead FOX suit decisions started with dumping MadTV.
And the most recent includes dumping Spike’s show.
Spike has truly cut a lot of new ground and the suits want the daily mush with no edge.
Let’s see… Wasn’t “In Living Color” on FOX ? It rocked til the suits took control and poof.. gone.
Per Wikipedia “Keenen Ivory Wayans left the show in 1992 after the end of the third season, over disputes with Fox about the network censoring the show’s content and rerunning early episodes without his consultation.”
More on this after I get over the shock of one of my fav programs going away.
Hang in there SF !

Yep, wake the kids, phone the neighbors…
On FOX after MadTV, the Aceman’s pretaped appearance will air…
and of course … go see The Hammer… Adam’s new movie. on the left coast…for the moment…
*******************************************
Funny bits…paraphrase
Spike notes Adam had twins and now Spike is having kids…
Adam:
“I thought you were gay… not sure if it’s the frames… or…
What did you use a surogate? haha
Was it Joanie Baez?
Adam notes that he thought his dad’s junk was huge…
but that maybe all kids do that…like you thought the pool was huge as
a toddler…
so he plans to get out of the shower one day …maybe a lil baby oil on
so they see a one 5 Mississippi…so the kids at school go
Hey Mr C… Yeah….
and getting the Stern Show spot in LA was
like getting a chance to be with Jennifer Anniston
and how often is this gonna come around…
so jump on it….
Hopefully this will be on spikes myspace or on Fox.com
or hulu.com… or perhaps someone will post something
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaLw1k3HpaM

And now via hulu

Can you retire from being an oppressive dictator? And what about that hella 401k, huh….
There’s more comedy hiding in this than just the bonehead media comments. He retired…he stepped down…
Perhaps Fidel will do that cranky night time talk show that Saddam passed on……
“Later with Fidel and Friends…”
World leaders come on and bitch about Bush… Maybe have Rosie Odonnel, Andy Dick or Bill Clinton stop by to yuck it up with angry world leaders.
Good Times!

February 14, 2008
I recently submitted a dream guest list to Spike Feresten which contained numerous celebrities that had… yet to appear… on the show.
One of which (and no doubt the hardest to book, scheduling, etc) was legendary talkshow host (and Spike’s former boss) David Letterman.
I was encouraged however in that my past years repeated lobbying of Spike to have on Adam Carolla, perhaps yielded some fruit….as the Aceman will indeed be on in March 2008 (show already taped) as he promotes the wide release of “The Hammer” movie.
So…… Spike always the smarty…. politely replies to my submission with… “I’ll have Dave on. Call him and set it up.”
seeing how I, as a regular person and not in the biz, would have like a 0.000001% chance of pulling this off, much less get a call through to Dave.
Dave has been on with Oprah (finally) and Conan and with Johnny Carson…and with Spike?
So…. stay tuned… I say Dave will be up for great fun in freaking out Spike…
More to come as the story develops.
**********************************************
On 2/16/2008 Spike gets around to telling me that the second season taping is wrapping and perhaps said challenge will be for late summer when season 3 would start.
Dave as first guest for season 3 ? quips Spike…
So… looks like all the fun is on hold til we know about the logistics of the show getting picked back up, etc.
So…once again..more on this as it becomes obvious.

The Aceman, still making the rounds promoting the new movie. *** (( See newest posting concerning TalkShow with Spike Feresten for March….))
Quips included how he was driving in a vintage Stanley Steamer (steam powered car) with Jay Leno (Hey, there’s Jay…and..Oh and,,Greg Brady…)……and how he’s guessing Jay’s love of this dated and potentially dangerous technology….fire,,,a high pressure boiler.. and catgut brake lines…will lead to the demise of Jay….and confuse a kid someday trying to write a book report….and explain how Jay’s steam powered car was hit by a Hover craft.
Another included a clip of Adam’s twin son Sonny being brought to tears when he has to watch a cartoon starring a African American handicapped guy…and Adam yelling at the camera to his wife….he didn’t get that from my side of the family!!
Later Adam and Jimmy runway model their walking styles for Janet Dickinson as they plug her reality show about modeling.
*** Here is his appearance with Jay Leno on 1/23/08

Per the Myspace for the show, TalkShow with Spike Feresten will be back January 12, 2008 just as other Late night talk shows have done.
Im noting that this was from a corporate dude, just like the announcement about Spike on the New Years gig…. and NOT from Spike.
Im sure the politics and stress of the business side of the entertainment business and coming back without writers is not fun. Should be interesting…
Best of luck Spike!.
___________________
Show was man on the street stuff with Spike and promoting two FOX shows coming soon. (Game show..Moment of Truth which they demoed with a member of the audience. That was probably the funniest part of the show. The other was a new Terminator follow-up) Spike made the comment that they were reluctantly returning…and the announcement on the Myspace was from a corporate dude and not Spike. Im sure this whole thing is just awkward and ugly and opposite of the creative and fun that Spike would rather focus on. Uggh

…look around and see if some A-hole is sucking all the heat out of your room….
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080109/ap_on_fe_st/sweden_body_heat
The water is probably already warmer than any heat they will suck out of the air in Sweden.
If there’s a physics guru out there, send me a comment convincing me I wanna spend my hard earned euros on this.

New Late Night with Conan O’brien as well as, Late Show with David Letterman starting January, 2, 2008 albeit sans writers except the hosts themselves. Carson Daly has already returned to production.
When I messaged Spike Feresten… He gave a very George Bush reply… something like… I havent ruled it out (going back in Jan) So they may return with TalkShow
…or just bomb Iran…
We’ll stay with that story as it develops.
Btw, I’m not against what the writers are concerned about, but it will be nice to see fresh stuff on TV. The thought of the onslaught of “reality” shows and games shows is depressing….
In a related story…just saw a promo for American Gladiators…yeah thats some wore out crap from the 70’s or 80’s haha

Sometimes news items just leap on the wordpress all by themselves… I guess the other cars of the world just didn’t have enough “bang” for the Buck ….. anymore.
I’m guessing they are using that Pinto design that was ahead of its time.
Looks like they will call this model…the “Proton”.. As names like..
“the Surge”,
“Boom”,
“Bam”,
“Terrorist” and
“Jihad”
were already taken by other car makers…
The features include (and as Dave Barry would say… I swear Im not making this up…)
Proposed by Iran, the collaboration would include installing features in automobiles such as a compass to determine the direction of Mecca for prayers, and compartments for storing the Quran and headscarves.
First link expired…

This one should talk about it too. http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Malaysian_car_maker_unveils_’Islamic_car’
.More on this as I get a chance…

This guy is nuts haha… I remember him on “Real People” a tv show from the 70’s? I think. Then on various talk shows then and now (recently with Conan and Spike Feresten)
A classic and extremely funny movie from back in the day.. “Moving Violations” A must rent!
A scene that I partially remember…
Fred and the automotive technicians stand around in their white lab coats at the car dealership….next thing you know that chubby lady is raised up on the car lift hahah

Know your audience…Marketing101 meets Main St.
This one may vary depending on your location but this is the audience I saw in a particular business establishment.
- The elderly (various ethnicities)
- Latino immigrants (Central America and Mexico mostly)
- Wandering unsupervised teens and pre-teens (various ethnicities)
- Meth People (digital cameras always need litium batteries and oddly enough security cameras.
- People that want to return things without receipt and certainly without packaging and after 30 days. Uh no!
- Criminals – they actually just came in to steal (various ethnicities)
- Thuglike people that just look like they came to steal (various ethnicities)
- People that are off their meds, bipolar and other various mental health issues.
- Occassionally the homeless and vagrants
- Repeat customers (various ages and ethnicities) with money that are ready to buy
- People passing through that are from like Florida or Arizona and truck drivers that stopped at Walmart
It would be interesting to see this real world info in a company’s business plan. Instead, you always see the idealistic stuff of upper middle class and 18 to 35…kinda stuff.
In this case, the elderly, the latino, the travelers/truck drivers and repeat customers with money in hand kept this business thriving. Speaking some amount of spanish was very helpful.
As far as weird stuff:
One guy came in with a tattoo…on the side of his neck…that read (and I can’t make stuff up this good)…
“100% Honky”
…I rest my case.

I submitted this to “Talkshow with Spike Feresten as a comment, as a bulletin and here. Hopefully SF will actually see some of my ideas like this one.
_______________________________________
My skit suggestion for season 2, Talkshow with Spike Feresten
Opening scene, our quartet friends in colorful customary regalia, each parked on his own throne (think bathroom displays at a Home Depot/Lowes) side by side….
Camera pans toward the floor as foot tapping becomes obvious…
…camera pans up as they start a happy tune.
…camera pans far right and down as we notice another shoe tapping away…
Hey, officer Bob from the airport police coming by to sing along…
Then a voice off camera… can I get you all some ice tea and cookies?
…Hi, Chris Hanson from Dateline….
Then the festivities are interupted by lots of loud whistles and lots of police and they drag away the Dapper Daniels…..awwwwww
Spike, run with this one and give me a plug before/afterward.

Call the crappy neighbors, wake their their poorly supervised kids…The Second season starts tonight after MadTV.
First show of second season…
-Spike inspecting people’s junk at the beach…pretty funny.
-News dude Rick Richards…so so…Leave Britney alone…
-Ryan Seacrest…a timely guest, but not a fan
-Old dudes getting freaky with the Koolaid man..just plain creepy
-Goth baby kicks butt on emo baby in Comedy for Stoners , It was no Lincoln or LarryKing..but those will be tough to beat
_________________________________________
There have been writer changes as I already knew…cause I’m good like that. The Myspace site lists:
WRITER BIOS:
MATT O’BRIEN
Matt O’Brien is a male comedy writer. His credits include SNL’s TV Funhouse, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
Note #1 That Matt is indeed male or he writes for a male comedy niche… Time will perhaps tell.
Note #2 Can’t help but go back to the classic Lovelines bit 11/9/2003, where Adam asks Producer Ann and Drew
…Triumph the Insult (clapping) I swear that’s driving me nuts…………Ann, What word is missing from that Triumph the Insult Dog?….and I don’t mean it like in a sarcastic way………..(Drew) The Comic Insult Dog?..(Adam) Is the word Comic in there? …or there’s something …there’s a speed bump in there…I can’t figure out what it is….(Drew) can we look it up on the web? …Yeah…….(Anderson) It’s Triumph the Insult Comic Dog….(Adam) O comic Right right …alright.
Lincoln Park is gonna be in here uh on Tuesday, …….. …Cyprus Hill……What word’s missing from Cyprus Hill?……….Oh yeah ….Weed…….
Papa Roach is gonna be in here on Thursday…..It’s a full week..oh yes
______________________________
Best wishes to departing first season writers that did an awesome job: Adam Felber, that will be taking a gig with Bill Maher and to Jeff Cesario
More to come as I get a chance….

August 31, 2007
Senator Larry Craig of Idaho has gotten a more than generous coverage in the media this week….as Paris Hilton, Nicole Richey and Lindsay Lowhan breathe a collective sigh of relief.
Did I miss it? What did he actually do that was illegal? He pled guilty to a disorderly conduct charge? Allegedly he had solicited sex in an airport men’s room in Minneapolis? The “solicitation” amounted to patting his foot and putting his hand just over the sacred stall divider demarcation line on the floor? And this was supposed to be some kind of gay gang sign of wink wink nudge nudge,,,,know what I mean…say no more? that the officer in the next stall received and said…Oh no you didnt…Come with me!
So, suddenly I’m assessing a bad Monty Python sketch from the 1970’s?
In the cnn.com article, reporter Dan Popkey was quoted as saying about the event…., “We have no hard evidence.”
http://edition.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/08/29/craig.arrest/?imw=Y&iref=mpstoryemail
That was one of several double entendre phrases that made me giggle this week. I think we are all glad about not having hard evidence…great….another Youtube video.
And in the next article, the officer has arrested about a dozen men for making this undescribed (tape said his hand was palm up, k) “hand gesture” since joining the airport police force in 2000. Really? Aren’t there bigger fish to fry after 911? Aren’t there sinister looking people or items left unattended or people parked in a fire lane for the airport police to be checking on? No, this dude is hanging out in the men’s room watching for undescribed illegal hand gestures?
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070830/ap_on_go_co/craig_arrest
… and the officer makes a comment that he expected this from people in the hood… Really? The next article from KTVB news had the text …
“I just, I just, I guess, I guess I’m gonna say I’m just disappointed in you sir,” Karsnia said. “I’m just really am. I expect this from the guy that we get out of the hood. I mean, people vote for you.”
…Really? Why is that again?
http://www.ktvb.com/news/localnews/stories/ktvbn-aug3007-craig_transcript.8638610a.html
And let me get this straight, if Senator Craig were to actually confess to being gay now, then we’d be tripping over ourselves to give equality to his life style, not to offend him and his guilt would be in not keeping his lifestyle at home?
And is the Minneapolis airport men’s restroom some famous place for a hook up? Aren’t there like 10 or 20 mens rooms in a major airport? How would you even know which one? Look for guys patting their feet as you pass stalls? So now, when I’m trying to take a much needed dump and I hear what sounds like a foot tapping or worse yet some hand crossing the demarcation line….Dude, I’m just trying to take a crap…Please.
By the way, what a great few months to work at the Minneapolis tourism bureau. “Come for our bridges…and stay for the restrooms….”
I can’t wait for the George Carlin and David Letterman comedy bits on this one.
More to come on this one…
This reminded me of a sketch on TalkShow with Spike Feresten.
Google ….return dapper ifilm
Then its “Return of the Dapper Daniels” on ifilm

______________________
There were rumors about how the renew for MADtv was going and if Spike would be in an earlier/longer time slot……
The silence and suspense.(Spike make it stop!!!).

George Clooney…George Clooney……

Tom Green is hosting an online only talk show from his living room.
Pretty cool stuff. The future of “TV”?
You can watch it online at 8pm pacific (LA) or see it on TomGreen.com or get it as a podcast on Itunes OR
go to the “OnDemand” section and download it (they switched from .wmv to .mov format now(itunes).
Dammit!!! Now the “Download button” is gone. Maybe you can get them off itunes? Tom…dammit…not all have or want to have itunes….Can someone please put the download button back?? They messed up the blog so you can’t put this kinda feedback on the site now….Maybe on the myspace page? First Westwoodone screwed with the Lovelines(Stryker version) downloads and now Tom….Is nothing sacred?
Recent guests of note:
-Spike Feresten and Dylan
-Dr Drew (Pinsky)
-Tony Hawk
-Steve-O
-Adam Carolla (Holy crap the Ace man was on!) Now I have to find something to play that horrible .MPG4/MOV format.
-Dr Drew and Stryker – One of the first questions on both of these last two…Uh, When is Adam coming back to Lovelines? Have to like Stryker for just surviving this last year or so….AND he is doing a good job…but just not Adam.

(Wait, wait!! A lil birdie is whispering about the second season…Stay tuned…)
(Hmmm…Not even a peep from Spike since FOX renewed the show for a second season…What’s up with that? Is he going to the View? I guess busy with Bee movie?)
Had to get a few quick lines on here to give propers to Spike. His new show is on Saturday nights after MadTV on FOX. Spike has been a writer for many shows including Seinfeld, Letterman and back in the day (Saturday Night Live’s Dennis Miller)
It’s part talk show, part field reporting, part edgy humor, part anything goes!
Google “Electric Lincoln” Youtube
to see one of the classic bits at the end of most shows called “Comedy for Stoners”
BTW, Abe looks a LOT like Clint Eastwood, hahaha Yeah baby!
Another skit that technically wasn’t in the comedy for stoners, but…Return of the Dapper Daniels….and their barber shop quartet’s homo-erotic tribute to “I’ve been workin on the railroad”
Google ….return dapper ifilm
Then its “Return of the Dapper Daniels” on ifilm
Some moron took down the one on youtube…dann weenies.
Okie dokie…Moving on…
