is everyone doing web-isodes now? »

I mentioned awhile back the whole I’m Just Sayin’ Show thing (still keep up with them; latest episode here ). Then I had a couple QwkThts (I’m so cool) about the lead-up to Jimmy Fallon’s show. (Here are a couple notables with guest stars.)

And now I find out Fred Armisen, with Carrie Brownstein (never heard of her) is rocking over at ThunderAnt. Which has me curious… with it being so easy to make a video and post it online, why do we still have television?

In a quick assessment of my viewing habits, things have moved decidedly interweb-ward. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Online (eight days later). The Office. OnlineFlight of the Conchords. Online (awesome). House M.D. Online (eventually). How I Met Your Mother. Online. And of course, The Daily Report. Online, online.

With the pending switch to Netflix and a little broadband I can nix the tube all together. But, as I sit here, I’ve just caught up on On-Demand Six Feet Under and Flight of the Conchords so… that’s all hot air (which, in all honesty, should be expected).

Plus, who doesn’t love a little HGTV or Bravo or Discovery or USA (it’s a place for characters) in the background while doing any number of more important things? Totally worth the inexplicable cost.

Thanks to Ben (@panchomill) I’m now quasi-addicted to something I should hate, despise or loathe. I’m not sure how it happened. Still, watch the video below and see if you aren’t attracted to the vacuous drivel:

You liked it didn’t you? It’s probably why anyone watched anything on VH1 since 2002 (save I Love [insert decade], which is awesome). The banter between Kristen, Jackie and Alisa is intoxicating in its emptiness. Plus, they’re social media sluts like myself.

Oh. And on that note… I’m now on Vimeo (videos to come, maybe). It works through Tumblr and it’s about time I had something outside of YouTube or the Book to load video into. (Talk about an impossible justification; I started sweating from the strain half through that sentence.)
