I'm talking about the gag reels, of course! I don't think anyone would find such evil doings funny ... well, actually, I bet a lot of people would.
This gag reel is on the Fringe first season DVD (I'm assuming), which came out yesterday. I don't know why, but I've always been a fan of gag reels and blooper shows. Some people can watch these and just sit there stone-faced. I find a lot of it very funny. The new season starts September 17.
Having just watched all of these scenes this past week (read my yammer in Jane After Dark), I found this gag reel for season two of Gossip Girl pretty hilarious. I always wonder what wacky hijinks take place behind the scenes, what the actors are like during filming, and how things can go horribly wrong with the cameras still rolling. So I love watching the outtakes on DVD sets.
My favorite here is the scene where an ultra-dandified Chuck is on the Yale campus, and the dudes grab him and stuff the sack over his head. Or rather, TRY to stuff the sack over his head. And then there's Leighton Meester, who is so indelibly "Blair Waldorf" in my head that it's weird seeing her crack up and talk in funny voices. I can't imagine trying to compose myself for a scene after cracking up take after take.
If you read my updated TV Squad profile, you'll see that besides infomercials, my guilty pleasure is blooper shows. You don't see many of them on TV nowadays, but you do get a lot of gag reels on DVD sets. Since Burn Notice is on tonight I thought I'd post this clip of season two outtakes. They sure do swear a lot.
There are fans, and then there are Joss Whedon fans. Theirs is a passion matched by few. And that works out great for the rest of us, because they are always on top of anything remotely Joss related on the internet. Things like this bit of video...
The gang over atVeronicaMars is gearing up to begin their third season on October 3rd. You can prepare for the big event by watching Season Two, now out on DVD. Or, if you already have that covered, you can enjoy the Season Two gag reel, courtesy of You Tube. Pregnant Veronica, men in drag, plenty of bleeped expletives, and a pretty impressive bit of acting from Joss Whedon. It's fun for the whole family!
