....Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, The Mighty Boosh, and My Tattoo IS DONE!....

GARTH MARENGHI'S DARKPLACE IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST THINGS I'VE EVER SEEN. I can't say that I don't know why I love it. I remember as a kid watching one of many of Stephen King's mini-series thinking "why in the lord's name are there so many of these?" One thing I don't know is why there was such a horror boom on TV. I do know that I couldn't watch much TV without getting some sort of fucked up image that, probably, still pops into my brain at the wrong moment.

When I saw GMDP the other night on Adult Swim, even knowing how they chop up "The Mighty Boosh" like mercilious butchers, I was so happy. It really does look like an old 80's horror series complete with bad dialouge, horrible effects, and a pretentious horror writer who couldn't write a decent book if he sneezed it out (not that Stephen King is that bad, but he's not GREAT either, he always has been pretty damn pretentious though).

It's amazing that I'm old enough to get the subtle nuances, the way things are filmed, the opening credits have all the earmarks of a cheesy show. People turning to the side, holding guns, running from explosions, women holding their temples in the suggestion that they are psychic....IT'S AMAZING.

It cements how much of a nerd I am. I enjoy it when people parody the 80's correcty. What do I mean by correctly? Well....there's no an abundance of headbands and legwarmers, and people randomly walked into a hallway in a hospital wearing fencing gear. That used to happen A LOT on television in the 80's.

The best part is that Julian Barret and Noel Felding of the Boosh had something to do with this spectacular piece of show. Not much of something, just cameo's really but GODDAMN IT that's great!!!

I'm not sure what could make this show better, I mean it's pretty spectacular. But that's really only if you appreciate this sort of thing. I know I love it.

I wish that Adult Swim would show it in freaking order. That would be nice.

So besides my new favourite show, my tattoo is done. It's peeling right now, but I here is a picture of it the day I got it.:

I love it, it looks really good and it's HUGE. Which I love about my tattoos. For some reason the bigger the piece, the happier I am with it. Even if I get a little one I probably won't love it like I love my new pinup girl or my giant song bird and microphone. I just love being tattooed. THE PAIN SUCKS but when you get a new piece you want another one right away!! Of course this last one hurt so much it's gonna be a little bit before I ever get another big piece.

Not much more I think. Just....check out Darkplace, and The Boosh as well. Your brain may melt but you'll be so happy it did.

AND NOW THE GRATUITOUS CHRIS ISAAK PICTURE!!!!
RAWR. LOL :)

HAZ A GOOD NIGHT PIPPLEZ!!!
