New Weird Al Yankovic Single “Craigslist” and Jeopardy Tribute

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

 

According to weirdal.com, Jeopardy is doing a Weird Al tribute on tomorrow’s show. Every category in Double Jeopardy will be based on an Al parody. Check it out!

 Weird Al is working on a brand new album, and some of the tracks will be made available before it comes out (weirdal.com says the whole album should be out some time next year). The online EP is called “Internet Leaks;” no word yet on the name of the new album.

 ”Craigslist” is one of the new songs, and there’s already a video. It’s Al’s tribute to The Doors, and while I don’t think the song itself is especially funny (The Doors have a lot more music than they do lyrics, so they’re not exactly ripe for parody) the video is pretty great.

New Star Trek Original Series Video Reviews on YouTube

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

  

I’ve started a new series of Star Trek video reviews on YouTube. I was origially inspired to do this by sfdebris, but my show is quite a bit different. I’m doing it in the persona of Da Monkey, a stuffed monkey who enjoys watching and critiquing Star Trek. I’ve started from the very beginning of the original series, and my eventual goal is to review every episode from every series, in aired order. I’ve tried to make it funny but occasionally insightful (but not too insightful– it is a monkey, after all).

 So far, I’ve done four episodes, and here they are for your viewing pleasure! If you like them, I hope you’ll go on YouTube and subscribe.

“The Man Trap”

“Charlie X”

“Where No Man Has Gone Before”

“The Naked Time”

Starting next month, I’ll also be hosting a Star Trek game show series as well. Stay tuned.
