Weeds fans seem to be a dedicated bunch. There are currently more than 263,000 of them on the show's Facebook page, many of them counting down until the show starts up again June 8, some of them coherently ("I love this show - can't wait until June!"), some of them not so coherent ("So very excite!!").
But then, this is a show about weed. So incoherent is okay, even encouraged. Look under the videos section on the Facebook page, and you find
a commercial wherein several types of pipes and bongs argue who the best rock drummer was (votes for John Bonham from Led Zeppelin, Ginger Baker from Cream, Ringo Starr, and that dude from Def Leppard). Before you judge, more than 600 people liked that video, according to Facebook.

Got a musically-gifted child under the age of 10? Hankering to live out your own failed musical aspirations through your little prodigy like a good stage mom or dad? Well,
Harmonie Network is giving you that chance.
Detroit-area producers are working on a reality television program called
Finding Julian's Band. The Julian in question is
Julian Pavone, the world's youngest drummer. How young? He was born in 2004. Called the "Tiger Woods of the Music Industry," Pavone has made a handful of TV appearances, played the House of Blues and released his own CD.
To have your rockin' tot considered, you'll need to send video footage of junior in action to the show's executive producers. Details are available at the
Harmonie Network website.

(S18E02) I thought the season premiere was decent enough, but this episode was even better. We begin at a funeral for Homer's Vegas wife, where Lenny explains how she met her demise:
Lenny: I'll tell you how she died: you know that sign that says "do not stand up on the roller coaster?"
Bart: Yeah.
Lenny: She overdosed right in front of it.
Like any little kid forced to go to the funeral of someone he doesn't know that well, Bart starts to find ways to entertain himself. When the ball comes loose from his paddle ball and sets off a chain reaction that chokes half the congregation, Homer and Marge decide to see a child psychologist to figure out how to help Bart behave.
