Strike Back (Cinemax, Friday) – I read a review of this show a while back that said it was like “24″ with nudity and more explosions. WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THAT?!
Comedy Central Presents: Donald Glover (Comedy Central, Friday) – I love Donald Glover’s standup, I love him on “Community,” hell, I even like his rapping. But I can’t shake the feeling that if I met and hung out with him in real life, we wouldn’t get along at all. I’m not too sure why. Probably has something to do with me being a jealous hater all the time. Maybe. I mean, we can’t rule it out.
Thumbs (MTV, Friday) – A show following competitive texters at the 2010 World Texting Championship. Competitive texters? Whatthewhonow?! Holy crap. I am 1 million years old.
Torchwood (Starz, Friday) – Every time I do the Weekend Preview, I see this show sitting there in the guide, like I’m supposed to do something about it. Sorry bub, I have “Matlock” reruns to watch. … Whatever. Like you’re so great.
True Blood/Curb Your Enthusiasm/Entourage (HBO, Sunday) – HBO should market their Sunday night lineup as “Dicks and Boobs.”
Breaking Bad (AMC, Sunday) – I miss “Mad Men.”
Big Easy Brides (WE, Sunday) – This show… I do not think it means what you think it means. Although I would watch a show about overweight, promiscuous brides, if only to try to get inside the minds of those grooms.
After the jump, two cool commercials I didn’t have room to post today.

Keep ignoring “Torchwood.” Absolutely atrocious.
On the other hand, I would totally watch the DG version of “Big Easy Brides.” In fact, I think I watched a 3 minute clip of something like that on Redtube last night.
Thank God this week is over and we get Matt back. DG sucks!
I don’t like this overload of wedding shows. One, because it makes women look crazy. And two, because it makes me feel bad about being single when apparently even crazy women can find someone willing to marry them and oh god why am I doomed to be a crazy cat lady and forever al-…
*ahem*
Anyhoo, how many variations of the wedding show do we really need?
Oh man, Smegga. Are you gonna be pissed off on Monday.
Go Danger Go Danger Go! Danger Danger RAP!!
“I read a review of this show a while back that said it was like “24″ with nudity and more explosions. WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THAT?!”
You would have called it “69″ right?
“One, because it makes women look crazy.”
What do you mean LOOK?
DG trampling on the brilliance that is Breaking Bad? Yuh fiyuhd!
Was that a shot against Breaking Bad? This season hasn’t lived up to the 2nd or 3rd, but I see it picking up and getting pretty intense.
Listen Danger – I love your style. Your writeups are hilario. Your slide presentation for Airborne was legendary. I peruse your tumblr periodically. BUT IF YOU DON’T WATCH BREAKING BAD AND KEEP CASUALLY DISMISSING IT I’M GOING TO….probably nothing but jesus christ watch the fucking show so you’re at least a somewhat respectable blogger.
Whoawhoawhoa. Deep breath, people. That wasn’t a “shot” at Breaking Bad. I still want to sit down and watch it all at some point in the very near future. It’s just that, since I haven’t seen it yet, I’ve pretty much run out of things to say about it in these Weekend Previews.
Also, I miss “Mad Men.”
the guy from Divine Rags reminds me of Mr. Big from Live and Let Die
You forgot, or likely didn’t know about “curiosity: why sex is fun” hosted by the sad turtle that is maggie gyllenhaal. I thought once about fucking her sad turtle face and then changed the channel to True Blood. I was that fucked up by what went through my mind at that moment.
new season of mad men will be amazing
