The second season of most any hot shit show will start to incorporate guests in some manner, and for tonight's all-new episode of Loiter Squad they chose to bring in Chris Pontius. With good reason, of course, because Chris is awesome! But I know I'm preaching to the choir here, there, and everywhere, when I say that, so let me just say this: flip onto Adult Swim come midnight to catch Pontius in cahoots with Loiter Squad, because you won't see him in the teaser below!
Despite all appearances, Derek Freda is not a large fan or supporter of the Los Angeles Lakers. He is, however, a very good sport and upheld his end of a basketball betting bargain he'd entertained with Jeff Tremaine after the Boston Celtics left him high and dry and dressed in the purple and gold the next day. Well, it could have been worse—much worse—and by this I mean at least it wasn't an indelible ass tattoo of "manfucker" in Zapf Chancery. Happy Birthday, Derek!
Though the name may be unfamiliar to you, her face is very familiar to us. Amanda has the unique role of balancing her sanity between the insanities of Jeff Tremaine and Johnny Knoxville, and for that she should be commended. As for the blurriness of the photo... let's just say it's definitely not the photographer's fault. The problem with Amanda is she's a hyper-kinetic individual and everything about her is always on the move; or, as Knoxville more directly explained, "She is very hard to photograph as she is always tipping over." The great thing is, when she does tip over it usually leads to her signature floor move, "The Worm", and that's always a sign of a night well done. Happy Birthday, Amanda!
Good Friday indeed! In the event you missed the original air date last week, Animal Planet has the Tanked episode featuring the custom 'crylic creation for Jeff "Picky" Tremaine scheduled for a repeat broadcast at 10:00pm ET/PT tonight. The one-hour long show bounces back and forth between its A and B stories and the respective constructions thereof, but if you come in late for the last 15 minutes you'll still catch the big reveal with special attendees Johnny Knoxville, Chris Pontius, Wee Man, and Big Dave Tremaine.
If it wasn't for the Interweb, I don't know how stalkers would do it. Well, yeah, I know they'd still be creepy, but never in the history of the world has creepy been such as easy state to attain. At least before you could really delineate the crazy from the truly crazy just by virtue of how damn hard they had to work at being crazy. Now it's just 50 shades of hazy crazy, and, as usual, this hasn't much to do with anything other than the fact Rob Dyrdek is showcasing some "animal stalkers" on Ridiculousness tonight at 10/9 C on the MTV with special guest and professional skateboarder Ryan Sheckler, who I am sure is no stranger to the occasional crazy.
The other day I received an email from Mike G. of former jackassworld.rip "mailbag" fame. Apparently he'd just seen the Nitro Circus movie and thought the fully-bearded Street Bike Tommy bore a rather striking resemblance to the time we'd mathed up Josh Lingenfelter and the Unabomber to make a Zach Galifianakis. So he took the X and the Z components of that equation, added them together, and came up with an SBT. In thanks for the contribution, here's a dried up old Mailbag segment I found stuck to the bottom of someone's online fruit basket... thanks, Mike G!
There are landmark achievements in life and then there are landmark achievements. I don't know what that means exactly, but goddamn it sound dramatic and shit, don't it? Anyway, we've had our fair share of triumphs in the world of entertainment—you know, bringing things like "The Poocano" and "Butt X-Ray" to big screens in cinemas all throughout the world—and with Loiter Squad's Young Nigga I'd like to think Dickhouse done busted good again. I mean, a llama? a rocket launcher? a Young Nigga's young nigga Jack? Word. Mad love and respect to these props!
Catch all-new episodes of Loiter Squad on Sunday nights at midnight or go rape, pillage, and plunder the booty over on adultswim.com!
There are few places words cannot go. They are the great descriptive communicators and articulators of the world around us, but there are times, I find, when they should take a back seat to allow the image or artwork do all the interpretive work. An Instagram-ish argument could be made for that case (except for you photo-foodists... my jury is still well hung on that pursuit); however, I'm not so sure this is one such insta-occasion, because far too much is left in the air to hang like a pair of extra-elongated testicles on a dead calm Kansas day.
So what really is going on here? Well, it all started out on our last* day of principal shooting for jackass 3D. While the lap pool was being prepped for Johnny Knoxville to jet ski up, up and awry, Jeff Tremaine and Rick Kosick were running around filming behind-the-scenes interviews with the various cast for filler content on the official movie website. During one such Q&A conducted with Wee Man and Preston Lacy, I believe there was ye olde perennial banter about Tremaine being the ultimate used car salesman and how he can pretty much get anyone to do anything—even if it's against their better wishes or judgment, which, of course, brings us to this photo, where money finally did the talking to make Wee Man do the licking. To up the gag factor (just in case you needed such a thing) just know that it was sunny and warm in Malibu that day, which surely made Preston's custom Danger Ehren tramp stamp that much more salty and moist to the taste.
* The word "last" is always such a nebulous term when it comes to our filming run, because there are the inevitable days we'll need to accommodate for pick-ups, last minute flashes of brilliance, mega-budget re-shoots, and Knoxville's penchant for running into street signs.
And so it's come to this... this, of course, being the night of the third all-new episode of Loiter Squad's second season on Adult Swim. You can peep the peek below for an idea of what to expect at midnight tonight, but then, if for any reason at all, you feel the need to ask, "Well, if it's come to this, then what comes next?" my only response will be, "The fourth all-new episode of Loiter Squad." But that won't be for another week now, so in the meantime please feel free to cry out in the midnight hour for more, more, more... much more.
What began as a random reference on Twitter soon lead to a fish tank of gargantuan proportions in Jeff Tremaine's "man room"—all courtesy of the masterful men from Tanked. Tonight you can see said episode of Tanked on Animal Planet, where all Tremaine's saltwater fishy dreams come true in his very own house. Johnny Knoxville, Wee Man, Chris Pontius, and Dave Tremaine himself are all there for the big reveal, so be sure to tune in at 9:00pm ET/PT for the full-fledged aquarium experience!
If you've been following the recent Fuckface Unstoppable exploits of Bam Margera from around the world on the Twitter, well, I don't know where I was going to go with that, so I'm just going to go on and say that earlier this year or late last year he made a guest appearance on the Ridiculousness. Appropriate, I think, considering Bam was a self-made rock star of the home video movement in the '90s. Nowadays they come in baker's dozens, many of which, apparently, are fresh out of the oven and now faceplanting on anything and everything in their well-documented paths. That said, meet the "Mini Bams", and then tune in tonight for this all-new episode of Ridiculousness at 10/9 C on the MTV.
No matter how many times I've typed out Dimitry Elyashkevich's name over the years—and believe me, I've done it a lot, ever since we first crossed semi-professional paths back in 1995—I always have to look once, look twice, then look again just for good measure to make sure I've spelled it correctly*. Well, one part of me always wants to type Eyelashbitch, so that's the real reason I have to double-check myself. Here, however, it's like, "Check out his eyelashes, bitch!" but looks can be just as deceiving as falling asleep in the office is stupid, both of which are clearly delineated in the video below from this past Sunday's big-time ratings' sweepering episode of Loiter Squad.
* I'd just like to point out that I am not responsible for the butchering of our favorite Russian's name on the video title above. I mean, despite what I may say at other times, this is definitely not "all me".
Okay, so I have to admit to a slight green feeling at present. No, not because I tainted my liver and its other associated innards this past St. Patrick's Day weekend (and, in truth, I only drank Ketel & Cranberries the entire time, so if any coloured thing my interior would be decorated in pure Russian red); and not because I'm anywhere near being under the weather (in fact, I feel healthy as a horse, albeit a miniature Shetland pony). No, it's a classic case of the green-eyed monster, a/k/a jealousy.
You see, I had this idea I'd wanted to do back on jackassworld.rip, where we each would try to poo one color of the rainbow. This would have been accomplished via extensive scientific digestive testing, where each of us ate foods of a singular color to see what emerged on the other end. Now if you've ever heartily eaten of the beet, you know the shocking surprise that awaits after doing so. I've been there. The first time it happened I thought I'd contracted the ebola virus and all intestinal hell was breaking out from inside me to outside me ... but then I remembered the bowl of steamed beets and several glasses of merlot I'd had the night before. Blueberries are another prime matter for scarily colored batter—black-and-blue can be the new brown-and-tan—and then there was this one day I only ate white turbinado yogurt-covered almonds and gave birth to an albino water snake that really freaked me out.
Anyway, the long and short intestinal point of all this being that some other guy went and made some arty crap of a food-based nature and I done missed the shit ship once again. Oh well!
Okay, yes, it's a day late but yesterday was also a day of rest. Unless you're Irish, I suppose, in which case your liver is working overtime to accommodate for the revelry of yesterday ... and possibly the day before as well. Maybe even Friday? Word. Anyway, it's all the past now, which brings me to this video from days gone by. How far gone? Well, let's see... March 2008 rings a distant bell, so yeah, five years ago probably almost to the day this video was posted on jackassworld.rip. The site was in its infancy then—a state of being you could say it never really grew out of, as it was indeed a breeding ground for all sorts of infantile behavior. Ah, the good old days... light it up, JxPx!
Let's first extend a Happy (Sloppy) St. Patrick's Day to one and all, Irish or not, and let the green times roll on your way to getting Seamus-faced. Come midnight, however, you'll need to pack up the leprechauns, pick up your livers—all two of them—and flip on Adult Swim for the latest episode of Loiter Squad with Tyler, Lionel, Jasper, Taco, and friends. Slainte!
