(S02E02) - "Unraveling the matriarch will destabilize them. They're all little boys who need a strong mommy." The thing I'm starting to love about this show is the way it switches gears on just about any incline. They are so swift and sudden that the law should go totally "nanny state" and require me to wear a helmet during each week's episode.
For example: in this week's chapter, we see the aftermath of Gemma's rape and the toll it takes on her as she tries to keep it from the club. Then the very next shot is of Tig, played by Kim Coates and some random fishnet whore slowly waking up with hangovers that could stun an elephant, together in a spent 69.
And I ain't talking about a broken down '69 Chevy.
Warning: this post about the FBI's investigation into the Super Bowl porn snafu uses the word "probe" several times. Viewer discretion is advised.
I don't know whether to pity or exalt Seth Rogen. The man has essentially become a celebrity from potty humor. First, he's in a bunch of movies that are almost porn (including one 
From 1986 through 2004, there was a popular English game show called Catch Phrase (we had a version in America, but like tea drinking and civility, we ditched it after only a very brief run). Here's how the bonus game on the show worked: nine blocks covered up a short video snippet. The blocks were removed randomly and the first contestant to correctly guess what phrase was being represented by the video won some British prize (like a top hat or a subcontinent or something).
Sure, if the cable guy accidentally hooks you up with a couple of extra channels, you might conveniently forget to call the company and complain about the error. But what do you do when you order a new PVR and its hard drive is partially full when it arrives -- with porn.
By a show of hands, how many of your were in Sweden over the weekend watching the five-minute SVT news update at midnight? If you were, you might have seen something a bit ribald on one of the monitors behind anchorman Peter Dahlgren. Apparently some staffers were watching a sporting event on a channel that shows porn after midnight. They forgot to switch the monitor back before the newscast and viewers were treated to some hot, nasty, Czech porn sex. There were no complaints from viewers, but apparently the other media outlets found it quite interesting. All I can keep thinking is that a channel that shows sporting events during the day and pornography at night would probably do really well in the states. I'm not sure why no one has thought of that.
Unlike some of our 
I'll try my best to avoid any jokes involving "hands free" phone accessories here. At any rate, I think we can all agree that there isn't nearly enough pornography. Thankfully, we may soon be able to get it on our cellphones as well. The trend is already taking off in Europe, but cellphone makers in the US have so far refused. However, like anything else that can generate money, it might not take much to convince them. Currently ratings are being drafted for mobile content that would label inappropriate content (that seems a little too convenient, but whatever). In the meantime, companies have formed for the soul purpose of providing either pornographic images or video to mobile phone users. Personally, I like to use my phone to talk to my friends and family, but I guess I'm just weird that way.
I think we can all agree that there isn't nearly enough pornography. Thankfully, Penthouse is making plans to launch both broadcast and video-on-demand networks. Soon we'll be able to choose from a veritable salad bar of porn that includes Playboy, the Spice Channel the Erotic Network, and Animal Planet. Penthouse Media raised $48 million in private funds to pay for the new endeavor.
