From left to right: Cleveland, Lester, Rallo
So I have watched the Cleveland and I have actually laughed out loud a couple times. You can’t really go by me, though. I laugh out loud when I see old people. Not falling down or telling jokes. I just mean I laugh when I see old people. ”HA HA HA YOU ARE OLD!” I’ll say, running away. But if you think the show is just Family Guy with Cleveland and a cartoon wife who’s not as hot as Lois Griffin, you’re wrong. It’s pretty funny. Here’s an example:
But that’s not the only thing about judging a book by its cover that pertains to The Cleveland Show. If I were gonna ask you who does the voices for the three characters in the banner pic, of course you would not know their names. But then, after the jump, I show you who they are and you will be all like, “Whoa, how do people do that with their voices?” Go watch on Hulu. But I will show you that you can’t judge a book by its cover.
- Who does the voice of Cleveland?
- Who does the voice of Lester?
- Who does the voice of Rallo?
Damn wrestling was good in the late 90's.
This week we take a pure one-hit wonder and let you all bask in the glory that is the Otara Millionaires Club. You may know them as OMC, or you may say: “oh, you mean the song The Rock’s cousin sang? I remember that song!” And remember it you will. Makes no goddamn sense, but you will remember it. I mean, I guess it does if you pay attention to the lyrics (which I didn’t) or watch the video closely (which I didn’t). But I like to think about it as being about three people (The Rock’s cousin, the girl and the dude in the back seat) driving around in an old car and sending people to Hell with their eyes.
So watch the video and read the lyrics after the jump, or just look at this picture and realize that these people were making moves and starting grooves before you knew they were gone.
Which One is O? I bet the dude in the back is O.

Below are two videos. There are a few things you need to know about them. In order for you to not feel alienated I’m gonna explain it. Then later if anyone asks you if you saw it/heard about it/know about it you can say yes. You should also tell them about this site and send me $50.00. So here is what you need to know.
- For those of you familiar with both the updated Battlestar Galactica and the Beastie Boys’ video: Sabotage just watch the video below and get a huge boner. Or a girl boner if you are a girl.
- For those of you familiar with the video but not the show, watch the video and appreciate how well they duplicated it using the shots from the show. Then go rent the show.
- For those of you who don’t know what the hell I am talking about, you need to know that Sabotage is one of the best videos of all time (the song kicks so much ass on its own that the video just makes it a little better). The geniuses who made this video used the song and pretty much duplicated it shot for shot but used clips from Battlestar Galactica. That may or may not excite you. If it does not, then…
- After the jump is a video that shows the two videos side by side. Then, even if you have no interest in either thing, you can still appreciate the technical merit. And if you can’t do that…as Jeff Probst says: “Head back to camp; I got nothing for ya.”
No shit – this gives me chills.
Goddamn that’s a good song. Side by Side after the jump.
So you figure you could tell that this was from the 90’s cause of the whole ‘90′ in the title. But the real story behind this song is George Michael from the late 80’s. Which is to say NOT the George Michael of the early 80’s when he was in Wham with Andrew Ridgely. Well, I guess he WAS Wham? I dunno. But I do know this.
He had that song Faith, which was catchy, and he was all tough guy gay with the stubble and the guitar and whatnot. Essentially he had thrown off all his…Wham gayness in exchange for jean jacket and big fat guitar gayness. And before you judge me about saying how gay he was, let’s just remember that his gayness is a huge part of who he is. People finally “figured out” that he was gay in 1998 when he was caught porking some dude in a public bathroom in London. But before that I guess there was some doubt?
So anyway – after he had the album where he was a tough guy he did this song. And if you figured the dude was straight, you would listen to it and say: wow he really is glad he doesn’t have to wear giant WHAM T-Shirts anymore or have that shitty fake stubble. But if you figured the dude was gay you would listen to it and think: fuck this dude prolly wishes that someone would catch him porking some dude in a public bathroom in London so he can stop pretending to be straight.
Also – if I was a straight rock star, I would get all sorts of hot models to be in my video but instead of me not being in it at all, the video would be about me banging them. You could set my coat on fire while I was fucking wearing it if it meant I could bang Linda Evangelista. Video and Lyrics after the jump. And Bonus! I included the Faith video first so you know what they are blowing up in Freedom. Dummies.
NBC has been hyping this show for a while and my interest was piqued. I was excited about the cast (I love Peter Krause from Sports Night and his comedic timing is wry, dry and wonderful) and Ron Howard can just about do no wrong. Tommy Schlamme did some awesome stuff on West Wing. I’ve heard Lauren Graham doesn’t have any sense of humor in real life, but she plays sarcastic well. Even if I am still mad at Bob Dylan, hearing Forever Young in the opening scene made me happy.
Some random chick has a thermos full of sperm in her freezer and exhorts a breeding promise from some guy who doesn’t have any interest in procreating. The same guy is later shocked to meet his 6 year-old son whom he knew nothing about. The patriarch has condoms in his desk drawer. A couple of kids are arrested for weed possession, another diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome, and yet another kid runs away to his dead beat dad after catching his mom in flagrante delicto. There’s a lot of fucked up kids on this show. I lost count. I also lost interest.
