“Keep Cheering Folks” Creepiest Show On TV
04 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Jim W. Hawkins is just one of those guys who is either an eccentric with a love for school-girl cheerleading or a paedophile or a bit of both. But let’s give Jim the benefit of the doubt and say his is just one in a vast sea of crappy public-access TV shows.

03 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
A Gay awards show in the US has apparently not nominated certain TV shows for any prizes because said shows depict gay characters doing gay things. Such as being bitchy to each other, wearing make-up, talking about their sex lives, and being incredibly narcissistic.

TV: Seth On SABC 3′s Top Billing – ‘Roast Summer Vegetables’
31 Jan 2011 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Ja, so basically I surprised even the great Silwood Cooking school, with my orgasmic roast summer vegetable dish. But I can’t take all the credit for it – as it was sent through from France, by Mother Dearest. Click link for the video (and recipe), in case you missed it. Fans of Idols’ Adeline will be quite pleased with this too..

Michael Scott Meets David Brent In The Office [VIDEO]
28 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
I’m a huge fan of The Office, both Ricky Gervais and Steve Merchant’s original and the American rendition. Steve Carell’s recent announcement that he will no longer resume his role as Michael Scott genuinely forced moisture from my face. I was immediately cheered up by an awe-inspiring clip: a meeting between Michael and David Brent.

There’s A Mara Louw-Shaped Hole In All Of Us
26 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The producers of Idols South Africa have let Mara Louw go after three seasons of racist slur, violent outbursts, faux couture and drunken shenanigans. Boy, that was fun. She was the single judge who could always be counted on to do something unscripted and rash at around the 40 minute mark of every episode. What do we do now?

If someone had told you that the creator of the Simpsons, Matt Groening, and late night talk show king, David Letterman had parodied ANCYL[biters] president, Julius Malema, you would not have believed them.

14 Dec 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 3 Comments
We pulled out some vinyl in the 2oceansvibe Radio studio the other day and found ourselves playing We Will Rock You by Queen. My Friday co-host, Bruce, reminded me of the old classic Sun City TV commercial, which used the same song. My Twitter friends helped find the video. Check it out – epic!

The Walking Dead: Because We Needed More Zombies
09 Nov 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
Zombies are everywhere. They’re in your movies, in your video games, in your Jane Austen, in your head (in your head) – and then some brilliant young mind decided that we needed a zombie-based television series. Wonderful – way to keep those fresh ideas coming. Except The Walking Dead might be the franchise to put this whole ‘undead’ craze to rest for a while.

The Battle Of The Michael Caine Impressions: Steve Coogan vs Rob Brydon [VIDEO]
09 Nov 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
The BBC has a new show called The Trip, which features two of Britain’s greatest comedians, Gavin & Stacey’s Rob Brydon and Alan Partridge’s Steve Coogan. In this clip, the two try to outdo each other with their Michael Caine impressions and the result is further proof that no one does comedy quite like the Brits.

Fake Time Travel To Get Out Of The Friend Zone [VIDEO]
09 Nov 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
‘So, you’re in love with one of your friends, but she has a boyfriend and probably wouldn’t have sex with you anyway’ is pretty descriptive, as titles go. You probably don’t need much more to go by than that. It’s funny and you should watch it. The fireman here knows what I’m talking about.

Is Tanit Phoenix The New Wonder Woman?
05 Nov 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
While I was originally stoked to find out that Wonder Woman was making a return to the silver screen and then gutted to learn that the project had been downgraded to TV, my opinion of the project has once again been swung by reports that our Tanit Phoenix is in talks to get the leading role.

The BBC Gets A Gritty Reboot
25 Oct 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The BBC has long been regarded as the calm and steady hand guiding the British public. Its objective, measured approach to the news has long been its appeal.

Is The D’oh Catholic?
19 Oct 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The Simpsons have been hiding a religious agenda, apparently. Sunday’s edition of L’Osservatore Romano, the Vatican’s daily broadsheet, declared that ”Not many people know it, and he does everything he can to hide it. But it’s true, Homer J. Simpson is Catholic.” I guess drawing conclusions from nonexistent evidence isn’t entirely new to the region.

Ed Chamberlin is Sky Sports’ elite football presenter. That’s right, he’s a pretty big name on British telly. Funnily enough, we can’t shake the memory of him as the beloved stooge of Founders House, Bishops, in 1994. We chat to him about the Currie Cup, the Liverpool shenanigans, and the state of English rugby, live on 2oceansvibe Radio.

In a story with the headline I’ve waited my whole life to write, the future Mr Katy Perry has been referred to as “pointless” by one of Britain’s most celebrated talk show hosts and, perhaps most crushingly, had his talents compared to those of an acting dog.

Dutch Man Needs Toilet On TV [VIDEO]
14 Oct 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The Dutch are an interesting bunch and certainly do have a unique sense of humour. In this case it is hard to tell whether the guy needing the loo is a prankster or not. He’s either a legend or an idiot. Either way, it doesn’t matter – the result is hilarious. Check out the video after the jump.

Mara Louw Admits Being Drunk On Air
06 Oct 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Monday evening’s episode of Idols SA was the standard mix of tepid content, low production values, and a small group of talented vocalists vainly struggling against a tide of disinterested public, average backing tracks, and of course, inebriated judges.
